Senior attorney-at-law Bert Samuels is calling for urgent intervention following the sentencing of music producer Ewan Pryce, arguing that Jamaica’s firearms legislation has resulted in what he described as a “travesty of justice”.

Yesterday, The Sunday Gleaner reported that Pryce, 47, was sentenced on Friday to 15 years imprisonment for possession of prohibited weapons and life imprisonment for stockpiling firearms.

The case stems from the discovery of eight imitation firearms reportedly linked to Pryce.
