A St Joseph man who pleaded guilty to a string of robbery charges was sent to jail for eight years, and in an unusual response, thanked and blessed the judge who sentenced him.
Elliston Guppy, who began following the Islamic faith while he was in custody awaiting trial, clasped his prayer beads while he was being sentenced by Justice Anthony Carmona.
His attorney, Maria Lyons, said he wanted to "make a clean break" of his criminal past and begin his life afresh.
Guppy, 31, raised his hands in praise to Justice Carmona as he was led out of the Port of Spain Fourth Criminal Court, on his way to starting his jail term.

TnT PM gone mad - Let's dance crime away!
The idea of "dancing crime away" has been welcomed by dance tutors, but has drawn condemnation from some religious educators.
The idea has been thrown out by Prime Minister Patrick Manning at two recent public gatherings and is regarded by many as relevant, in light of the controversy surrounding a sexually explicit dance between 15-year-old Danah Alleyne and R&B star Akon at a Port of Spain night club recently.
Now we have a mad PM
