KINGSTON, Jamaica — Fi We Children Foundation (FWCF) is calling for an official investigation into a viral incident involving an off-duty cop and a student aboard a Jamaica Urban Transit Company (JUTC) bus.

The advocacy group says it is deeply concerned by a video circulating on social media in which a young student alleges she was ordered by an off-duty policewoman to leave a JUTC bus despite having already paid her fare. According to the student’s account, she was removed without any apparent lawful or reasonable justification.

The foundation said that, if the allegations are substantiated, the incident raises significant concerns about the treatment of children, the exercise of public authority and the duty of care owed to minors in public spaces.
