Jungle justice claims teenager
published: Monday | July 11, 2005

NICHOLAS DAKERS, alias 'Bin Laden', 13 years old, became the victim of another case of 'jungle justice', after he was tried, found guilty, and sentenced to death in a kangaroo court by a group of gunmen last Wednesday.

Dakers was taken to the old Chinese Cemetery on Waltham Park Road, St. Andrew, where he was shot four times. He succumbed to his injuries on Thursday at the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH).

Dakers allegedly shot Shauna-Kay Brown at her home on Freemans Lane, Kingston 13. The teenaged girl was a student at Melrose Primary School.

Residents reportedly heard an explosion and later found the little girl lying on her back, with a bullet wound to the head. Shauna-Kay was later pronounced dead at the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH).

Dakers who was seen running from the scene with a handgun was chased and held by a group of men.

Reports are that Dakers had gone to a tenement yard on Freeman's Lane where the deceased and her family lived.

On seeing Shauna-Kay, he began displaying a handgun which was without a magazine at the time. Not knowing that a bullet was left in the chamber, the youngster allegedly continued to show off the weapon and pulled the trigger, hitting the young girl.
