Two more persons have been arrested by the Major Organised Crime and Anti-corruption Agency (MOCA) in connection to the $222-million fraud at the Institute of Sports (INSPORTS).

News of the arrests came from MOCA’s Director of Communications Major Basil Jarrett on Thursday morning.

On Wednesday, MOCA announced that three people, including popular “Chug IT” and “French Connection” party promoter Andrew Wright, along with Rudolph Barnes and Oneil Hope, had been arrested in connection with the fraud detected by INSPORTS in 2017.

Allegations are that the three men were part of a team of former employees of INSPORTS, who wrote, signed and encashed fraudulent cheques for payees who were neither employees nor contracted workers of the entity.

The suspected fraud and other irregularities were reportedly detected by INSPORTS in 2017 during an examination of their financial records. The matter was then reported to MOCA, triggering an investigation.

The three have been charged with various offences including conspiracy to defraud, acquisition, use and possession of criminal property, engaging in transactions involving criminal property and larceny as a servant.

More details soon.
