Open questions the AI reported
- Only the Jamaica Observer blotter account could be opened; no second source for this seizure was found.
- The report names neither of the two people detained and gives no later outcome.
- The same blotter reports a separate Old Harbour operation in which five men were detained with a rifle, ammunition and dynamite, a different event left out here.
- No photograph of the seizure with a recoverable direct image address was found in the opened source.
