Sagicor Group Jamaica says it continues to cooperate with the Major Organised Crime and Anti-Corruption Agency (MOCA), as it carries out investigations into a 2016 to 2019 fraud case involving personnel affiliated with the group.
The case is also being probed by the Counter-Terrorism and Organised Crime (CTOC) branch, along with other agencies of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF).
The company released a statement in response to Monday morning’s announcement from law enforcement of at least four individuals linked to the case being arrested in areas across Kingston and St Andrew.
None of these arrests were made at any Sagicor location, the organisation said.
“As the group maintains a zero-tolerance approach to fraud, upon identifying irregularities in 2019, immediate steps were taken to report the matter and safeguard against future breaches. We commend the efforts of the law enforcement authorities in conducting a thorough investigation,” it said.
It added: “Sagicor Group Jamaica is committed to supporting the authorities as their investigations progress. As this is an active legal matter, we will not be providing further comments at this time.”
