One of the most wanted men in the East Kingston Police Division was held by Cuban authorities last weekend on a boat with three other men.

Dwayne Thomas, otherwise called 'Christopher Thomas' and 'Charlie Wapp', is now in police custody and is being questioned.

According to a release from the police, Thomas is wanted by the Kingston East police for absconding bail, and a number of murders and shootings, especially in the Rockfort Area of Kingston. One of the murders that police wanted to question Thomas about was that of Roger Gardener, 19, who was chased into a yard along Glasspole Avenue in Rockfort and shot several times. This incident occurred in April.

Thomas was taken into custody by Cuban police authorities after he was found at sea in Cuban territorial waters last weekend, along with three other men.

The release further said that two of the three men captured with Thomas are Jamaicans, who are also wanted for a number of crimes, while the other is a Bahamian, who was processed by Cuban police and sent home.
