Still wearing their US immigration detention garb, the four Jamaican fishermen who were aboard ‘Lady Lawla’ arrive at the Norman Manley International Airport yesterday.
The four Jamaican fishermen who returned from the United States last evening were in high spirits, and their relatives were relieved to have them safely back home after more than two months detained in the US without charge after being accused of drug trafficking in what lawyers have called a breach of their rights.
The men have reportedly been left traumatised by their detention, which started on October 11, when their boat,
Lady Lawla, was boarded by the United States Coast Guard. Their ordeal ended yesterday, when they were released from US custody.

Attorneys representing four Jamaican men detained by the United States Coast Guard on allegation of drug possession and who had their vessel destroyed are slamming the Government. Lead attorney Bert Samuels, speaking at a virtual press conference today, raised concerns about the circumstances which led to the detention of boat captain Anthony Clarke, Radcliffe Simmons, Howard Patterson, and Warren Rowe. On October 11, the Jamaican-registered vessel Lady Lawla was intercepted some 100 miles south of Jamaica by the US Coast Guard. At the time of the interception, Lady Lawla was in international waters, with the closest landmass being Jamaica.
