The police are describing as a major success the result of a case in which a 35-year-old man, considered to be a major player in the lottery scamming scheme, was stripped of property valued at close to eight million and US$6,230.
The man identified as Algrando Stewart of a Brissette Road address in Cambridge, St. James was also ordered to pay over $13 million to the crown following his guilty plea to possession of identity information in the St James Circuit Court in December 2020.
The police said the man who first identified himself as a carpenter, was ordered to pay $3 million out of the initial $13 million sum within a month and the balance over the following 24 months.
