A St Catherine man who was charged with fraudulently collecting $900,000 for the purchase of a motor car which he failed to deliver made restitution in the St Catherine Parish Court on Friday.
Asrick Clarke, who was charged with fraudulent conversion, was freed after the Crown offered no evidence against him.
It was alleged that on July 5, 2022, the complainant paid $900,000 to Clarke for the purchase of a 2017 Toyota Probox motor car.
However, Clarke failed to deliver the vehicle on the agreed date.
A report was made to the St Catherine North police and following an investigation Clarke was arrested and charged.
