ROSEAU, Dominica, March 09 2015 – The Dominican Government wants to pursue an amicable settlement in relation to the deportation of dancehall entertainer, Tommy Lee and three other Jamaican men in February last year.
This was communicated in a letter from the Attorney General’s department in Jamaica to attorney-at-law Bert Samuels who is representing the four men.
Last May Samuels threatened that the men would file a claim with the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) if Dominica did not start to conduct negotiations for compensation within 30 days.
Samuels had also written to Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade Minister, A.J. Nicholson for the Government of Jamaica to be joined as a party to the dispute. (Jamaica Gleaner)
