Commission: Failure to seize Watson’s funds makes Cayman look ‘incompetent’
The Anti-Corruption Commission has questioned why a six-figure confiscation order against Canover Watson has not been enforced, suggesting the lack of follow-through is making Cayman look ‘incompetent’.
Prosecutors have confirmed that almost a decade after his conviction, Watson has yet to repay any of the money he stole from government in the CarePay scandal, despite an order from the court and multiple efforts by prosecutors to recover the funds. Meanwhile, efforts to recover funds from Watson in a separate regional football fraud have stalled in the courts. For a more complete summary of the story, please see the below link:
