Two members of the Jamaica Constabulary Force have been arrested in connection with a multi-million dollar robbery of two Chinese nationals in Kingston.
The lawmen are facing charges of robbery with aggravation.
It's reported that about 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday June 6, the two Chinese nationals were at their wholesale when they were visited by the two police officers dressed in plain clothes.
The police officers showed their ID and presented a document that they said was a warrant from the Constant Spring Police for the property to be searched for uncustomed goods.
They were granted access to the business establishment.
One of the Chinese nationals was led to the family's living quarters upstairs where a search was conducted.
The police officers found and took J$8.5 million along with US$40,000 from a metal filing cabinet and an iPhone 14.
The Chinese national objected and told the officers not take the family's money because it was to pay for credited goods.
The officers reportedly told him the money would be returned and that he should drive behind them to the police station.
But as the Chinese national was about to get into his vehicle to follow the police men, the officers sped off with the money.
The iPhone was tracked and was found damaged in the Queensbury community in Kingston.
