Prime Minister Andrew Holness on Sunday morning announced the establishment of a Zone of Special Operations in the southern section of Savanna-La-Mar, the capital of the south western Jamaica parish of Westmoreland.
The Prime Minister, making the announcement at Jamaica House, said the special security measure had become necessary due to the barbaric nature of criminal activities in the targeted communities.
It was only last week that the government established a similar Zone of Special Operations in Parade Gardens, Central Kingston, in response to a similar upsurge in serious crimes.
