PHILIPSBURG: - Last Friday, 12 February 2021, the Court of Appeals of Aruba, Curacao, Sint Maarten, and the BES-islands (the Court ) ordered the prosecution of an individual with political authority on Sint Maarten. The order relates exclusively to a limited number of crimes of which he is suspected.
Based on the Constitution of Sint Maarten and the National Ordinance for Prosecution of Individuals with Political Authority, the Public Prosecutor s Office can only prosecute individuals with political authority after an order to that effect has been issued by the Court.
Further to the results of an extensive criminal investigation codenamed Ruby , carried out since July 2018 by the RST Investigation Team under authority of the Anti-Corruption Taskforce of the Public Prosecutor’s Office (TBO), the Public Prosecutor s Office submitted a request for such order in May 2020.
