DETECTIVES from the Organised Crime Investigation Division (OCID) have named a person of interest.

He has been identified as Horace Haughton, otherwise called ‘Omer Haughton’, ‘Dean Haughton’ and ‘Dr Garcia Enriques Perez’.

It is alleged that Haughton has fleeced more than $9 million from individuals, under the pretense that he could provide vehicles for them on hire purchase, with an upfront processing fee of $70,000. He reportedly operated from an Old Hope Road address in Kingston. Several reports were made to the police after individuals did not receive their vehicles after making payments, and an investigation was subsequently launched.

Horace Haughton is being asked to report immediately to the OCID offices at 8-10 Orange Street. In addition, anyone knowing his whereabouts is being asked to contact detectives at 922-3771, Crime Stop at 311, police 119 emergency number or the nearest police station.
