Prime Minister Dr Andrew Holness has pledged full state support to intensify police operations targeting high-risk criminals and their networks, following the death of two lawmen he has hailed as “heroes” murdered in a “devious trap”.
Holness was speaking with Police Commissioner Dr Kevin Blake during a debriefing at Norman Manley International Airport upon his return from New York on Saturday.
“Their service was courageous. Their sacrifice must never be forgotten. They are truly, truly, truly heroes in our national struggle to eliminate organised criminal violence, illegal guns, and gangs from our society,” said Holness.
