Several persons protes-ted the arrest of Tesha Miller, the alleged leader of the 'Clansman' gang, in Spanish Town, St Catherine, on Saturday.
Miller was reportedly arrested in Portmore, St Catherine, by police on Friday night after breaching his bail bond which stated that he was not to leave his premises after a certain time of the day.
When THE STAR visited Waterloo Lane, persons were seen with placards, some marked, 'Free the don now' and 'Wi need Tesha to be free now, im no do nothing'.
The protesting residents, mostly women, claimed that Miller had not done anything to be arrested. They said he went to report to the police as a condition of his bail, when he was arrested. The protesters said they need their leader to be released.
The St Catherine North police confirmed that Miller is in their custody and say they are investigating a matter about which they would like to talk to him.
The Clansman gang is said to be aligned to the People's National Party. Miller is successor to the late Donovan 'Bulbie' Bennett.
