Advocates group Stand Up for Jamaica has taken issue with the Government’s decision to repatriate the Haitians who arrived in Portland on Saturday (September 9).

The group of 36 Haitians who were the second set to arrive in recent times was sent back yesterday morning.

In a release, Stand Up for Jamaica said it finds the Government’s actions reprehensible.

It said it believed this move is backward and goes against the support and harmony that the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) is supposed to achieve.
