McKeeva Bush corruption investigation – update

From RCIPS March 19 5:58

Further to our previous releases concerning the December 2012 arrest of the former Premier of the Cayman Islands, McKeeva Bush MLA, and another local man in connection with corruption allegations, please note:

Both men complied with the conditions of their bail and presented themselves to officers of the RCIPS earlier today, Tuesday 19 March 2013.

Officers of the Financial Crime Unit conducted further interviews with Mr. Bush and collated additional relevant evidence.  In line with normal procedures, the details from those interviews have been forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecutions. This is to allow her to consider the latest information along with the previously submitted evidence file.

Mr. Bush has been placed on overnight bail and is due to present himself to RCIPS officers again tomorrow afternoon (Wednesday, 20 March 2013). The re-bailing is to allow the DPP an opportunity to consider all of the evidence currently available and thereafter advise the RCIPS of her decision as to whether charges can be laid.

The second man arrested in relation to the importation of explosives investigation has been re-bailed until early April 2013.

A further update will be provided Wednesday (20).
