Cruz told The Associated Press that there’s a gag order in the case and that she could not provide further details. Jover is the seventh person arrested in a case in which authorities say contracts were fraudulently obtained from Puerto Rico's Department of Education and its Health Insurance Administration. Keleher, who resigned in April 2019, faces charges including bribery and fraud in another other federal case.
