Police are seeking the whereabouts of Bodden Town resident Daviat Howard Pringle after he failed to return on police bail.
The 46-year-old man, police said, is now wanted as officers have not been able to locate him.
Pringle, the RCIPS said in a statement Tuesday afternoon, is “encouraged to turn himself in to the Cayman Islands Detention Centre, or the nearest active police station, at any time, day or night”.
Pringle failed to return on police bail, as required by his bail conditions.
Police did not disclose the offence he was on bail for.
Pringle is described as being of dark complexion and stout build, with short dark hair and dark brown eyes.
Police reminded the public that, according to the Police Act (2021 Revision), it is an offence to obstruct, mislead or act in such a way as to prevent the apprehension of a person who has committed an offence. Anyone prosecuted under this section may be liable on conviction to a fine of $5,000 or imprisonment for two years, or both.
Police are encouraging anyone with information on Pringle’s whereabouts to contact 9-1-1, or Bodden Town CID at 947-2220.
