Denham town ZOSO must go on, say stakeholders, residents
Jan 31st, 2022 | Category: GLEANER PREMIUM | 3:51#JamaicaGleaner #DenhamTown #ZOSO #Crime JANUARY 31, 2022: Gridlocked by a Zones of Special Operations (ZOSO) since 2017, residents of the gang-torn, West Kingston community of Denham Town are convinced that although the presence of the joint security forces has brought some relief, their loose hold on gangs has left the community still plagued by gun violence four years later. The sentiment comes amid growing concerns among residents that with the declaration of ZOSO’s in two additional communities, government resources and four years of consecutive extensions are bound to run out with no clear resolution to gang conflict in sight.
