Detectives from the Firearms and Narcotics Investigations Division (FNID) have officially charged three Colombian nationals in connection with the largest single cocaine seizure in Jamaica’s recorded history.   The seizure, valued at approximately JM$1.65 billion, follows a coastal interception on Saturday, March 21.   Charged are 39-year-old Lucio Henry, a fisherman of San Andres, Colombia, 34-year-old Arith Lopez, a fisherman of Barranquilla, Colombia and 22-year-old Klein Sinclair, a fisherman of Providence, Colombia.   All three have been charged with Possession of Cocaine, Dealing in Cocaine, Importing Cocaine, Trafficking Cocaine, Conspiracy to Traffic Cocaine and Illegal Entry.   Reports are that about 4:10 a.m. on March 21, members of the Jamaica Defence Force intercepted an unnamed fishing vessel off the coast of Alligator Pond, St. Elizabeth. The three men were found aboard with 99 knitted bags of cocaine. The vessel and its cargo were escorted to the JDF Coast Guard Base at Port Royal, Kingston and subsequently handed over to FNID investigators later that same day.   The knitted bags revealed more than 2,400 parcels of cocaine weighing over 6000 pounds.   Director of FNID, Superintendent of Police Patrae Rowe, said this large seizure is a show of the consistent collaborative approach to dismantling the illegal drug trade.   “Our efforts are paying off, our strategies are working, our targeted approach in terms of our operational output and our stakeholder engagement has improved sufficiently that we are seeing the kind of results that we are seeing,” said Superintendent Rowe.   The accused were formally interviewed on Tuesday, March 24, in the presence of their legal team and an interpreter. Following these interviews, they were officially charged on Tuesday, March 31.   The accused are scheduled to appear before the Kingston & St. Andrew Parish Court on Tuesday, April 7.

China doesn’t “own” #Jamaica and there’s no “debt trap”: China is funding infrastructure projects across much of Latin America and the #Caribbean, from ports and railways to roads and energy links. Some are already completed, many others are planned or under construction. These projects are often tied to trade routes and resource flows, and form part of China’s broader global investment strategy. Over the past two decades, China has emerged as a significant partner for Jamaica, with cumulative investments, loans, and project commitments estimated at around US$2–6 billion. This includes equity FDI (roughly US$1–2 billion), major infrastructure like highways, ports, and housing built by Chinese firms, plus bauxite and urban development projects. Chinese policy bank loans (mainly Exim Bank) have funded key infrastructure, with cumulative commitments near US$2.1 billion since the mid-2000s. However, Jamaica has repaid aggressively with no major new loans since 2017. Chinese debt now accounts for just 3.9–4.5% of Jamaica’s total public debt (approximately J$2.2 trillion or US$14 billion). Officials, including former Finance Minister Nigel Clarke, have noted that 90% of the outstanding Chinese portfolio is on track for repayment within 10 years, at low fixed interest rates of 2–3%. This modest share underscores that the bulk of Jamaica’s debt is domestic and multilateral. The relationship focuses on completed projects and trade rather than new borrowing, helping Jamaica maintain fiscal discipline while benefiting from Chinese-built infrastructure.
