New Policy to Guide Police in Evictions | Jamaica News
Description
New policy guidance is set to reshape how security forces handle evictions and demolitions, following a controversial Coopers Pen operation where 20 homes were razed amid heavy police presence — sparking outrage, detentions, and lawsuits. Prime Minister Holness insists he can’t direct police operations but vows future actions will uphold the law and human dignity. A meeting with the National Security Council aims to strike a balance between enforcing court orders and protecting residents’ rights — ensuring such incidents don’t repeat.
