However the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights has urged the Jamaican State to conduct an impartial investigation of the events that led to the deaths of some innocent people too. The effort of the desperate police to arrest Dudus Coke, has resulted in the arrests of nearly 500 people and widespread confiscation of arms and ammunition. Live combat could be seen on Television between Policemen and supporters of Coke in neighborhoods of Denham Town and Tivoli Gardens.<\/p>\n

Deputy Police Commissioner Glenmore Hinds said that the effort is still on to arrest Coke, but they are still clueless about his whereabouts.

The government also urged businessmen to stop backing the drug lords that will threat peace of the nation.<\/p>\n
