Well-placed police sources believe that the 13-year-old girl who was killed in the recent Denham Town, west Kingston, police operation was pregnant for one of the reputed gangsters who also died during the operation.
THE STAR understands that the police are going to carry out a series of DNA tests on 13-year-old Nicketa Cameron, and 29-year-old Ramon ‘Tete Rass’ Stern in the coming weeks.
Last Monday, six persons were killed during a police operation in the community.
Police sources say Stern and another man known only as ‘Kiro’, who is also among those killed, were wanted for questioning for various crimes committed in the area and were the targets of the operation.
Interestingly, THE STAR also understands that Tete Rass may have fathered another child with a 15-year-old girl from the community.
Meanwhile, in an interview with THE STAR, the mother of the 13-year-old, Beverly Kennedy, said she does not believe that her daughter was pregnant.
Kennedy also rubbished claims that Tete Rass was intimately involved in relationships with minors.
“Dat is not true. No sah, me nuh know of dat at all. I don’t believe my daughter was pregnant because I didn’t see any sign or symptom of dat because my daughter was menstruating and a me buy her sanitary napkins,” she said.
Kennedy further said, “Him (Tete Rass) a big man, my daughter is just 13 years old, believe me to God, him nuh talk to little girls. Dis a shock me right now,” she said.
NO MONEY FI KEEP ZIMBABWE ELECTIONS

Zimbabwe Finance Minister Biti Says No Funds for 2012 Elections
Tendai Biti said the scant available resources cannot be channeled towards elections, adding the focus for this year should be the constitutional referendum and the country’s fourth census since independence, that is set for august this year

In sharp contrast to President Robert Mugabe’s call for elections this year, Zimbabwean Finance Minister Tendai Biti on Wednesday said it’s impossible for the country to conduct early polls because the government’s coffers are empty.
Biti said the scant available resources cannot be channeled towards elections, adding the focus for this year should be the constitutional referendum and the country’s fourth census since independence, that is set for august this year.
President Mugabe, however, has remained adamant in the past few weeks saying that elections should be held this year with or without a new constitution.
The two MDC formations in the unity government say fresh polls cannot be conducted in the absence of key democratic reforms, including changes in the media, electoral and security sectors.
Biti said Harare is even struggling to raise funds to finance the 2012 census expenses, which he said is top priority.
On the economy, Biti said a total of $28.9 million dollars was realized by end of February from the sale of 8.1 million kilograms of tobacco. The minister said gold output declined in the same month by 11.8 percent from January’s output of 1,053 kilograms.
Testifying earlier before a parliamentary committee on agriculture, Biti said accused the country’s political leaders of spending too much time bickering over less important issues and neglecting development issues.
He said the discord in the unity government exists because leaders have not put the country first, insisting they remain “entrapped in party political jackets”.
Biti said a Grain Marketing Board audit presented to cabinet two weeks ago revealed that the parastatal has been run down due to poor management.
He said if commercialized the GMB could be profitable as was the case with the Dairy Marketing Board and the Cotton Marketing Board.
Biti dismissed as rubbish statements by some ZANU-PF supporters that his ministry is not supporting agriculture.
He said some of the government’s past interventions in agriculture have been destructive.
