Police nab two more in fraud investigation

By: Stanford Conway, SKNVibes.com

    BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – JUST three days after police had arrested and charged four individuals for obtaining money by false pretence, two more men were added to the list on Saturday (May 13).

     

    A police communiqué informed that the men arrested in relation to fraud committed against the Government of St. Kitts and Nevis are Kelvin Pemberton of Stapleton Village and Daveron Flemming of Challengers Village.

    Pemberton was charged on seven warrants in the first instance for obtaining money by false pretence.

    The offences were allegedly committed between December 2, 2016 and February 27, 2017 in Basseterre, where the sum of $35,000 X CD was obtained from the Government under false pretence.

    Flemming was charged on two warrants in the first instance, also for obtaining money by false pretence. He allegedly committed these offences between February 21 and March 17, 2017 in Basseterre, where the sum of $6,000 X CD was obtained from the Government under false pretence.

    These two arrests follow those of Ivas Burnham of Middle Island, Lescelia Francis of Lamberts, and Lynette and Lejon Warner of Conyers, who together had obtained $68,000 X CD from the Government under false pretence.

    However, prior to the six arrests, another individual was also implicated in the fraud investigation.

    Police had issued a release on April 13, 2017, which stated that Lennon Caines of Old Road was charged on four warrants in the first instance for obtaining money by false pretence.

    The offences were allegedly committed between December 19, 2016 and March 15, 2017 when $17,000 X CD was obtained from the Government under false pretence.

    So far, the ongoing investigation into fraud against the Government of St. Kitts and Nevis has accounted for the loss of $126,700 X CD.
