Basseterre, St. Kitts — The Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force (RSCNPF) wishes to inform the public that, on June 15, 2026, the Court granted an order for the forfeiture of US$80,000 following the successful conclusion of judicial proceedings initiated by the White Collar Crime Unit (WCCU).
The currency was seized by officers of the WCCU on December 17, 2025, from Mr Torquil Hanley of Camps at the St. Christopher Air and Sea Ports Authority during the execution of their lawful duties.
The seizure, investigation, and subsequent forfeiture proceedings were conducted in accordance with the laws of the Federation and all applicable legal procedures.
