US$20,000 reward for Dudus capture

image KINGSTON, Jamaica, Wednesday June 16, 2010 –There’s now a US$20,000 bounty on Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke’s head.

With the 41-year-old alleged drug lord refusing to turn himself in and lawmen unable to locate him after three weeks of searching, they’ve turned to offering a reward for information leading to his capture.

“The police would like to find Coke to execute a warrant of arrest issued by the Courts of Jamaica for him to face extradition proceedings,” said a statement issued yesterday.

“Persons knowing the whereabouts of Christopher 'Dudus' Coke can contact Operation Kingfish at 811, Crime Stop at 311 and Police Control at 119.”

Coke is wanted by United States law enforcement agencies for drug and gun running offences.

Despite several joint police/military operations, including the first in Tivoli Gardens where security forces and Coke supporters clashed in gun battles that claimed the lives of 76, the wanted man has continued to elude capture.
