    Charged by Customs

     

    BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – THIS media house has learnt that the services of Bruce Alexander - who was arrested and charged with the gun find at the Sea Port earlier this month – were terminated by his employer, Royal Logistics, following his arrest.

     

    In a statement given by Executive Directors and owners of the brokerage firm, Kendall Maloney and Collin Williams, it was indicated that Alexander’s services were terminated because he “violated the employee standard codes under company policies”.

     

    The termination, according to the directors, took effect on Thursday (July 21) after Alexander was remanded to Her Majesty’s Prison.

     

    It was also indicated by the execurives that Alexander was placed on suspension from Royal Logistics on July 18 – the day his Millionaire Street residence was searched by police, which is the same day that he was taken into police custody.

     

    Alexander was charged with 13 counts including illegal importation and illegal possession of guns and ammunition.

     

    The items, according to a press release previously issued by the Customs and Excise Department, informed that they were discovered by Customs Officers during a routine search at Transit Shed One.

     

    Members of the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force were called in for assistance and the items were catalogued and placed in police custody.

     

    As part of the investigations into the find, two searches were conducted at Alexander’s home and at a George Street business, following which he was taken into custody and subsequently charged.

     

    Meanwhile, a press release issued by the Customs and Excise Department yesterday (July 22) informs that Alexander was additionally charged “under the Customs (Control and Management) Act, 1992 with two counts of improper importation of goods, one count of untrue declaration and two counts of fraudulent evasion of Customs.”
