The proprietors of four premises within the St Andrew Central police division are to appear in court on charges of operating without a spirit licence and exposing alcohol for sale.

Head of the division, Derrick 'Cowboy' Knight told THE WEEKEND STAR that raids were carried out on Wednesday at Rebel T HQ, Insomnia, 'The View (owned by deejay Junior Reid) and another bar.

Summonses were served during the raids and the proprietors are to appear in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court on April 1.

Superintendent Knight further told THE WEEKEND STAR during one of the raids an underage girl was seen who was operating as a sex worker.

"We saw a young girl who at first said she was 18 plus ... Following investigations we found out she was 17 and that is illegal, plus she was operating as a sex worker who is all the way from Clarendon," Superintendent Knight said, before adding that the owner may be slapped with charges relating to the Child Care and Protection Act and Human Trafficking Act.

A quantity of expensive liquor such as Hennessy and Hypnotiq were also seized and will be used as evidence in court as the police will look to backup their claim that the owners were not licensed to to sell alcohol.

"This is the beginning of many more operations," the tough-talking Knight said.

Over the next two months venues within the division which have attracted 'night noise' complaints will be raided and the owners taken before the courts if found in breach of any laws.

"Some of these fines are exorbitant and there is the possibility of being locked up," Knight warned.
