Those include probes into suspected theft related to misuse of a government credit card and breach of trust for the alleged importation of unspecified explosive substances without valid permits.Authorities in the British Caribbean territory did not provide any details about the allegations.“It would be inappropriate for the RCIPS to make any further comment in relation to these matters at this time,” the police statement said. “Further updates will be made available in due course.”Leonard Dilbert, the premier’s chief of staff, stressed that Bush will continue working as the three-island territory’s leader amid the ongoing police probes.“There have been no charges,” Dilbert said in a brief phone interview from the small island chain.Meanwhile, the islands’ 700-member Chamber of Commerce applauded news of the top official’s arrest by investigators.The premier’s arrest “demonstrates Cayman’s robust law enforcement and anti-corruption systems and the islands’ intolerance (of) any alleged unethical behavior or corruption even at the highest level of political office,” the chamber said in a statement.The islands’ monetary authority and bankers’ association did not immediately respond to emails and calls.Private equity and hedge funds flock to the Cayman Islands, which offers tax advantages for fund managers and some of their foreign and nonprofit investors.

He also is the longest serving member of the Legislative Assembly,Cheap Jerseys USA, having first been elected in 1984.Following the elections, Bush has focused on retaining foreign finance firms and generating more revenue for the British territory.

Bush later scrapped the plan following an international outcry.Bush had been the target of several police investigations prior to his arrest.
