The vehicle that was confiscated.
CUL DE SAC–The Asset Recovery Team confiscated a black Mustang and several other items during a house search at an address on Meadowlands Drive in Cul de Sac on Thursday as one of its first actions since its formation.
Items for a hemp nursery, data carriers (telephones and computers) and administration records were also confiscated during the search.
The search was related to the investigation named “KES” in which two persons are suspects: a woman T.M.M., who was born in St. Maarten in 1989 and a man O.L.M.H., who was born in St. Maarten in 1984. The two are suspected of money-laundering, forgery and tax evasion, amongst other things.
M. was questioned on Thursday as a suspect in the case, but was not arrested. H. has not yet been questioned as a suspect.
“Crime does not pay,” a press release from the Prosecutor’s Office on Thursday stated.
The Asset Recovery Team is a collaboration of the St. Maarten Police Force KPSM, the St. Maarten Tax Authority, Customs, the Caribbean Coast Guard and the Prosecutor’s Office of St. Maarten. The Asset Recovery Team was founded on the basis that crime should not pay. The proceeds of the Asset Recovery Team will benefit St. Maarten, the release said.
