Govt to apologise for Coral Gardens & Tivoli Gardens incidents

by March 21st, 2017

Prime Minister Andrew Holness is to apologize for the Coral Gardens incident as well as the security forces operation in Tivoli Gardens.

70 persons were killed in 2010 when the security forces stormed West Kingston ion search of then fugitive Christopher Dudus Coke.

In 1963, the security forces went into Coral Gardens to quell a disturbance at a gas station which eventually resulted in a massacre of scores of Rastafarians.

Prime Minister Holness says the incidents of violence are unacceptable and the government is leading the way in making it right.
