$75,000 was the bail amount set for a 45-year-old Morvant man for money laundering offences.
The TTPS says irregularities were observed during an internal audit at the Housing Ministry in the disbursement of Home Improvement Grants for the period November 2021.
A male suspect was subsequently found to have cashed a grant cheque valued at $15,000, even though he was not a bona fide applicant and not entitled to any monies under such a grant.
Following an investigation, Quincy Boyd Thomas was held and charged with one count of Obtaining Money by False Pretenses and two counts of Money Laundering.
He will reappear in court on February 25th 2027.
