She has 175 fraud matters before the court beginning in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>According to both police and prison sources, Boodram was taken from the prison on the authority of a court order. Sources said two police officers attached to the Tunapuna Police Station, which is charged with responsibility for prisoners scheduled to appear in court from the Northern Division, went to the Women\u2019s Prison and removed Boodram on Monday. The officers, a male and a female, went in a marked police vehicle and were accustomed to collecting prisoners at Golden Grove for court.<\/p>\n<p>Prison officials said they thought nothing untoward about the officers coming with what they presumed were legitimate court documents stating Boodram was scheduled to attend night court. Prior to the officers\u2019 arrival at the prison just after 5 pm, prison officials were telephoned and told Boodram had secured bail in all her matters.<\/p>\n<p>After collecting Boodram, the male officer returned to the station where he dropped off his colleague and left with Boodram. Neither he nor Boodram has been seen since. The female officer was being questioned by officers of the Professional Standards Bureau up to last evening.<br \/>\n<B><I><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.guardian.co.tt\/news\/2017-11-28\/vicky-sprung-prison\">Full Article : guardian.co.tt<\/A><\/I><\/B><\/p>\n<p><b>More:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.trinidadexpress.com\/20171129\/news\/prison-service-dont-blame-us-the-cops-did-it\">Prison Service: Don&#8217;t blame us, the cops did it<\/A><br \/>\nTHE Prison Service is defending its reputation against a flood of criticised following the \u201crelease\u201d of accused fraudster Vicky Boodram from the Golden Grove Prison, Arouca on Monday.<\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.trinidadexpress.com\/20171128\/news\/police-officer-questioned-as-business-woman-breaks-out-of-prison\">Update: Second cop in custody in Vicky escape<\/A><br \/>\nThe Express has learnt that a second police is being questioned in connection with the escape of Vicky Boodram.<\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.trinidadexpress.com\/20171128\/news\/nationwide-search-for-vicky\">Nationwide search for Vicky<\/A><br \/>\n&#8230;as CoP orders probe<\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.trinidadexpress.com\/20171128\/news\/the-great-escape-of-vicky-boodram-how-did-she-do-it\">The great escape of Vicky Boodram: How did she do it?<\/A><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;found in house hours after \u2018public\u2019 meal By Jensen La Vende, Kevon Felmine December o1, 2017 &#8211; guardian.co.tt Three days after alleged fraudster Vicky Boodram escaped from the Women\u2019s Prison at Golden Grove, Arouca, she was recaptured in Penal last night.
