🚨 Jamaican murder suspect deported from Cayman Islands

The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS) has deported an unnamed Jamaican individual back to Jamaica, following alerts from law enforcement partners that a murder suspect had travelled to the Cayman Islands. The suspect was located and detained on November 8 by officers working in collaboration with Customs and Border Control (CBC). The individual was then transported back to Jamaica the following day and handed over to the Jamaican Constabulary Force. 🚔

Police Commissioner Kurt Walton highlighted the importance of collaborative efforts between the police and local, regional, and international partners in securing borders. Walton also emphasized the commitment to act swiftly when alerted of criminals attempting to enter or reside in the Cayman Islands. No details about how the suspect entered the Cayman Islands or the murder case have been released. This is not the first instance of the Cayman Islands deporting murder suspects back to Jamaica. 🌍

Earlier this year, Ashley Williams from Kingston, Jamaica, was deported after being accused of murder. Williams had been in the Cayman Islands on a work permit, which officials stated had been cleared as she had no police record when the application was made. In July 2022, Rudolph “Boxer” Shaw was deported from the Cayman Islands to Jamaica. Shaw was wanted in connection with several murders and had entered the Cayman Islands illegally. He was later killed by Jamaican police after escaping from the Kingston Central police lock-up. 🚁
