\"\"<\/a><\/div>

An accumulative amount of around $50,000 has gone missing from the accounts of customers who bank at the Police Cooperative Credit Union (PCCU).<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The PCCU, located at the Police Headquarters on American Road, serves both police officers and civilians.<\/p>\n

Now, an investigation is ongoing where a senior sergeant at the Johnson\u2019s Point Police Station has been given the task.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n

It is believe that over a period of time, thousands of dollars had been transferred among customers\u2019 accounts and were later withdrawn by a civilian loans officer.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

At least five people were victims of this illicit activity, but it is not clear whether the affected customers were all police officers.<\/p>\n

The alleged perpetrator, who has worked at the Police Credit Union for about four years, was kept in police custody for two days after investigations were launched into the missing funds.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Ordinarily, the investigation would have been conducted by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID). Although the unnamed officer is trained in Financial Investigation, police sources argue that he was not given the position because of his skills. They allege that the officer was hand-picked by the President of the PCCU, who played a part in recruiting the accused.<\/p>\n

The President, who is also a member of the Police Service Commission (PSC), is off island and could not be reached to defend her position.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

And, despite calls to the manager of the PCCU on Sunday August 25th 2019, the Corporal could not be reached for comment.<\/p>
