KINGSTON, Jamaica — Another per‎son has been charged along with George Knight, a former manager at the National Works Agency, and his five co-accused in the fraud case involving the National Contracts Commission (NCC).

The seventh accused is Lambert Dawkins who is linked to Cenitech Engineering Solutions, Knight’s company at the centre of an alleged forgery of documents.

Others charged with Knight and Dawkins are Clara Mantock Sr and Clara Mantock Junior, Melville Edwards, Police Inspector Andrew Bobb and Ferris Stewart.

The Crown is alleging that Knight’s company submitted a number of forged documents to the NCC to be registered as an approved contractor. The company reportedly provided the names of several people to support its application and was later selected for a $732-million construction project in St Thomas.

The court was told that a man listed as an employee subsequently denied being employed to the company, saying he hadn’t given permission for his name to be used on the application to the NCC. The police were subsequently called in.

The accused men are to return to court on January 6, 2015, as the Cybercrime investigators have not finished their probe.
