No one island hops quite like the fugitive Malaysian businessman Low Taek Jho.

Low, 37 – widely known as Jho Low – is accused of corruption, bribery and money-laundering by law enforcement agencies in several countries in connection with the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) financial scandal.

Reports last week said that Low was believed to be heading for islands in the Caribbean – specifically Saint Kitts and Nevis, where he reportedly holds citizenship.

Located between Barbados and Puerto Rico, the country relies heavily on tourism for its economy, which is no surprise considering its breathtaking scenery, stellar beaches and sunny climate.

It is an ideal getaway destination and these Instagram photos are proof of that.
