KINGSTON, Jamaica - OFFICIALS in the Turks and Caicos Islands say they have recovered US$19.5 million and more than 2,500 acres (1,000 hectares) of real estate as they continue to seize assets allegedly improperly obtained by corrupt politicians.
Yesterday's announcement comes six months after the territory resumed self-government after three years of direct rule imposed by Britain due to a corruption scandal that led to the arrest of the island's jet-setting ex-premier in Brazil.
