The case involves former Education Minister Ruel Reid and four other accused individuals. Defence attorneys initially objected to the report, but Senior Parish Court Judge Sanchia Burrell overruled them. The trial is being held at the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court.

A report related to the movement of money into and out of a Caribbean Maritime University (CMU) account has been admitted into evidence in the ongoing fraud trial involving former Education Minister Ruel Reid and four co-accused. An objection by defence attorneys to the 12-page report was overruled on Monday by Senior Parish Court Judge Sanchia Burrell, who is presiding over the trial at the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court. Prosecutors are expected to go through the report today with a former CMU executive, who has been giving evidence since last week.
