A woman was arrested and charged by members of the Fraud Squad after she reportedly stole several motor vehicles from a popular car dealership, where she was employed.
Charged is 55-year-old Hauva Davis, car sales administrator of Cedar Grove, Portmore, St Catherine.
Reports are that between 2005 and 2014, Davis, who had responsibility for logging all motor vehicles taken into the company's warehouse, sold a number of vehicles and failed to either account for the sales of the motor vehicles in the company's records, or for the proceeds of the sales. Allegations are that she advertised some of these vehicles privately, thereafter negotiated the sale of the cars, which she sold to various individuals, including persons who operate car dealerships.
audit exercise
The matter was brought to light during an audit exercise by the company and when certain documents were requested of Miss Davis, she instead abandoned her job and left the country. The matter was subsequently reported to the police in July, 2014.
On Saturday, September 13, the suspect was intercepted at the Sangster International Airport on an inbound flight and taken into custody.
The accused was later charged with six counts of the offence of larceny of motor vehicles, valued at $6,000,000, and was offered bail in the sum of $300,000. She is to reappear in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court on September 24.
She is also being investigated for the disappearance of 80 other motor vehicles valued over $80 million.
