Charged only a month ago with a $26.3 million fraud, Clayton Alleyne found himself facing three more charges yesterday, when he was accused of defrauding three persons of over $1 million in total.
It is alleged that Alleyne, of 179 South Ruimveldt, between November 3, 2016, and December 29, 2016, at Sheriff Street, obtained $700,000 from Dulana Lalchand, on the pretext of granting him a loan of $5 million, which he failed to do.
It is further alleged that between January 31, 2017 and February 8, 2017, at Sheriff Street, Alleyne obtained $516,000 from Samuel Manbodh on the pretext of granting him a loan of $4 million, which he failed to do.
Additionally, it was alleged that between November 4, 2016 and December 9, 2016, Alleyne obtained $415,000 from Kizzy Shepherd to grant her a $3.4 million loan.
Alleyne, who is said to be the head of a loan company, denied the three charges after they were read to him by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in a Georgetown court.
According to police prosecutor Arvin Moore, there are more charges to be laid against Alleyne, who was previously granted bail on charge of trying to defraud Fantasy Auto Sales of $26.3 million. He added that there’s a likelihood Alleyne would not return to court if released. The prosecutor also noted that the man has to return to the Criminal Investigation Department to assist in further investigations.
The Chief Magistrate subsequently remanded Alleyne and adjourned the matters until May 16.
