KINGSTON, Jamaica — Head of Strategic Operations, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Warren Clarke, has called on members of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) to give their maximum effort during the final five months of 2026, describing the remainder of the year as “a sprint” that will require every division to perform at its best.

Addressing officers at an Area 2 Town Hall Meeting, the deputy commissioner said the force had made significant gains in reducing violent crime but warned that achieving its year-end targets would depend on sustained operational intensity across all policing areas.

“As much as we did well last year, then we have this year in front of us, and in another couple of days we’ll have only five months to go in the year. Five months of a lot to do,” DCP Clarke said.
