Money laundering accusation

By PAVEL BAILEY

A JAMAICAN man was arraigned in Magistrate’s Court yesterday on charges of money laundering and receiving.

Damian Dujon, 37, of Westmoreland, Jamaica appeared before Magistrate Kendra Kelly on two separate charges.

The first count against him was for receiving in connection with Dujon coming into possession of 905 euros, the property of Christian Schmuck, from January 12-28.

His money laundering charge is in connection with his arrest in Governor’s Harbour, Eleuthera, on January 28 when he was found in possession of $18,577, which is suspected to be the proceeds of crime.

Dujon pleaded not guilty to both counts against him and elected to be tried in Magistrate’s Court.

The magistrate ordered that Dujon surrender his travel documents and told him that a bail hearing will be heard at his next court appearance. He was remanded until that time.

His next court date is set for February 2.
