SMN News also learnt that the suspect who is well known in the community of St. Martin as Mollo was transferred to prison Grasse in South of France pending the investigation. It is understood that the suspect just recently purchased a restaurant in Marigot as well as brand new vehicle.
SMN News also learnt that a female suspect was also arrested with the main suspect on St. Martin. Efforts made to contact Prosecutor Jacques Louvier for more information on the case proved futile as Louvier is currently off island.
In the meantime, Operations manager of Chronopost Sammy Soulard said the company wants to stress that the suspect was not the manager of Chronopost St Martin, instead he was just a desk clerk.
Furthermore, Chronopost has been collaborating fully with the authorities on this matter, helping the investigators identify their suspect.
The desk clerk's contract has been suspended immediately.
