The Police High Command has condemned and ordered a high-level probe into the murder of Corporal Ransford Durrant of the St James Division, who was shot dead in Windsor, St Ann's Bay, yesterday morning.

There were fireworks yesterday at the murder trial of three policemen in the Home Circuit Court when Senior Deputy Director of Public Prosecutions Dirk Harrison asked a defence witness if a particular phone number belonged to one of the accused men.

The Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) has confirmed that state minister Ian Hayles has been reassigned to the Ministry of Water, Land, Environment and Climate Change.

WITHOUT SOUNDING like a killjoy, I wish to encourage everyone to be sensible this Christmas holiday. It is not called the silly season without reason.
