KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Judiciary of Jamaica has rejected reports that motorists arrested on outstanding warrants during the recently concluded Traffic Ticket Public Days were temporarily held in a bathroom at the National Arena.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, the judiciary said individuals who were unable to immediately pay court-imposed fines were placed in a designated changing room while arrangements were made for their transportation or other next steps.
According to the judiciary, the room had access to bathroom facilities, allowing those being held to attend to their personal needs while awaiting transportation or alternative arrangements.
