KINGSTON, Jamaica — Former National Works Agency (NWA) Director of Regional Special Projects, George Knight, and his co-accused Clava Mantock Jr, were today (Wednesday, December 17) freed of gun-related charges in the Gun Court, downtown Kingston.
Knight was charged in July by the Major Organized Crime and Anti-Corruption Agency, (MOCA) with aiding and abetting illegal possession of ammunition.
Knight’s attorney, Peter Champagnie Wednesday noted that prosecutors indicated that they would not be proceeding in respect of that charge.
Knight is also facing multiple fraud charges.
