In October of this year ANN reported that two persons were sent on leave following the misappropriation of approximately two hundred thousand dollars at the RSVGPF.
The report stated that a Junior Clerk, assigned to the Accounts Department as a Votes Clerk, over the past few years has been entering invoices for an individual in Victoria Village, Stubbs for supplying tyres to the police Transport.
According to the report posted earlier this year, the officer found a way to have these claims approved on the Smart stream system.After approval was granted through the system, the officer would then produce orders for the Office Attendant to collect the cheque from the treasury department.
ANN understands that the treasury deptartment picked up on these transactions and the officer was cautioned. The source is also saying that the officer found another way to beat the system and continued with these transactions until the Audit department stepped in and queried the transactions.
Both the Office Attendant and the Junior Clerk were sent on Vacation leave by the Service Commissions Department. The clerk up until the end of December and the office attendant until November.
In an update received by ANN, it is reported that the Junior Clerk, Mitrann Prescott has been charged and is in police custody. However, ANN is uncertain as to the nature of the charges at this time.
It is unclear if charges will be brought against the Office Attendant at this time.
ANN would further update as information becomes available.
