A 48-year-old woman was granted bail in the sum of $250,000 with a surety, by Justice of the Peace Ibrahim Ali on March 8, after she was charged with three counts of Larceny.
According to the TTPS Lindsay Ann Julien Allan, of Sangre Grande, was arrested on March 6 and subsequently charged two days later.
According to police reports, during the period May 10, 2022 and July 28 2022, the accused allegedly received the sums of $88,000, $79,000 and $50,000 cash from victims, which represented full payments towards the purchase and delivery of several motor vehicles from a credit union.
The suspect allegedly led the victims to believe that she was in a positon to obtain repossessed motor vehicles from a credit union and deliver same to them.
It was later discovered that the suspect was never in a position to do so, and efforts made by the victims to obtain a refund of their monies from the accused proved futile.
The matter was reported to the Fraud Squad and investigations were conducted, which led to the arrest of Julien Allan, who was later charged with three counts of Larceny.
Allan is expected to appear in court on April 4.
