POLICE Commissioner Owen Ellington has finally broken his silence on why the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) have not named the suspect in the murder of 17-year-old Khajeel Mais.
In a release to the media, Ellington explained that because the suspect was a citizen of the United States and was in that country at the time he was wanted for interrogation, naming him would have only thrown a spanner in the works of the investigation.
&quot;The main suspect is a citizen of a foreign country and was in that country at the time we discovered his possible involvement in the crime. Obligations stipulated in the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) dictated that the JCF prepare a case file and obtain a warrant for the suspect's arrest. The JCF had to ensure that the necessary due diligence was done and done in a timely manner in order to facilitate his return to Jamaica. To prematurely promulgate information about the suspect would therefore only complicate the case and possibly hinder our investigation,&quot; said the commissioner.
He also said that naming the suspect before conducting an identification parade would have been another wrong move.
&quot;The decision not to publicly name the main suspect was influenced also by the possibility of the conduct of an identification parade to link the individual to the crime. Given these factors, the decision was taken not to list the suspect as a person of interest. <span style="font-weight: bold">The individual has since returned to Jamaica, is in police custody and will be interviewed. There is now no need to publicly name this suspect as a person of interest,&quot; he said.</span>

BY PAUL HENRY Crime/Court Desk co-ordinator [email protected]
Wednesday, July 13, 2011



THE taxi operator involved in the July 1 accident that resulted in Kingston College student Khajeel Mais being shot to death says the killer has no excuse for his foolish action and that he should pay the penalty.
The taxi operator, who lives in St Andrew, told the Observer during a visit to his home that the shooting incident was unprovoked.
&quot;I don't know what he [the shooter] is going to say now. He must face his judgement. Him no have anything to say to this. He is just totally foolish,&quot; said the man while standing bare-chested at his doorway.
The taxi operator, whose name is being withheld for security reasons, was speaking with the Observer Monday just hours after the police announced that a suspect in the shooting had been held at the Norman Manley International Airport. The apprehension comes a week after the man fled the island for the United States.
The suspect's lawyer Patrick Atkinson, QC, told the Observer that he had been arranging his client's return to the island and that he, too, was present at the airport when the man turned himself over to the police.
Seventeen-year-old Mais of Havendale, St Andrew was shot in the head by the driver of a BMW X6 after the taxi in which he was travelling ran into the back of the luxury vehicle along Island Drive in the community, according to the police. The youth was on his way to a fête at the Meadowbrook High School when the incident occurred.
The taxi operator was Monday guarded about the information he gave out, saying that he was instructed by the police not to speak about the incident. At first he refused to talk but eventually opened up a bit. He insisted that the incident occurred exactly how the police reported it. Pressed for further information the man quickly clammed up.
According to him, the incident occurred around 7:30. He said after running into the back of the sport utility vehicle, he stopped and heard Mais, who was in the back seat, saying, &quot;Him coming wid a gun&quot;. The taxi operator said he tried leaving the scene when the driver of the BMW fired on his vehicle, hitting Mais in the head. He said the man fired several more rounds then gave chase in his luxury vehicle. The taxi operator said he drove to the nearby Constant Spring Police Station.
&quot;He wanted to take our lives,&quot; said the taxi operator, speaking of the shooter. &quot;He wanted to kill us. A jus' me life mi see in front a mi.&quot;
Now, the 33-year-old father of a child said he is living in fear. The man said he seldom leaves his house since the incident and outlined the reasons he will be harmed.
Before he started talking he shooed two teenage girls standing nearby and spoke in a low tone. Despite assurances that neither his identity nor his address would be used in the story, the man incessantly begged as though a promise had not been made. Towards the end of the interview, he showed some bravado, saying that he was not fearful of anyone, while in the same breath saying that he had to be cautious.
He expressed regret that Mais, a person he had known for years, lost his life. &quot;He is an innocent youth. Mi sorry say the woman lose har son,&quot; said the taxi operator.

The mere fact that there need to be an explanation from the <span style="font-weight: bold">COP</span>, no less shows how biased the operation of the JCF and their Media backers are.
Maybe they'll do the right thing and stop naming so-called persons of interests until they have something concrete to go on.
Trial by Media generally does nothing to advance the good order of society.

Is a BMWX5 really worth a person's live and causing this man to live in fear? This is truly heart breaking
