Manchester farmer freed after judge upholds no-case submission in ammo case

MANCHESTER, Jamaica—Radcliffe Frazer, a farmer who was charged with unlawful possession of ammunition, was on Monday acquitted in the Manchester Parish Court after Senior Parish Judge Anneil Coote-Guinness upheld a no-case submission advanced by his attorneys, Rodain Richardson and Amy Dunkley of Richardson Law Chambers.

The matter arose from a police operation conducted in Manchester on November 4, 2024, during which officers reportedly stopped and searched a motor vehicle in which Frazer was travelling as a passenger.

During the search, police reportedly discovered ammunition concealed among items found in the vehicle. Frazer and the driver were subsequently arrested and jointly charged in connection with the discovery.
