WESTERN BUREAU: More than 100 residents of Troy, Trelawny, took to the streets on Wednesday, demanding the release of a man arrested in connection with Tuesday's mob killing of convicted sexual offender Delroy Coke.
Waving placards and chanting for justice, the protesters occupied the community's main square for about 90 minutes, insisting that Maxwell Henry should not be held criminally responsible.
Henry was taken into custody as police intensified investigations into the reprisal attacks that followed the discovery of the body of 10-year-old Shani Coke in the community on Tuesday.
