Passa Passa is a weekly street party originating in Kingston, Jamaica.

According to Jamaica Hub, West Kingston Police have denied promoters, hopeful of hosting a dance in Tivoli Gardens to celebrate the birthday of former don Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke, the permit to do so.

The dance was planned for this weekend, but the promoters’ application for a permit was flatly rejected by high ranking cops in the division.

The cops communicated their disapproval of the hosting of any dance of that nature in the community during a meeting at the Denham Town Station earlier this week.

The promoters were hoping to keep the dance in an area known as ‘Top Ten’ which was once a stomping ground of Coke.

Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke’s birthday is March 13.

Hopefully he can still salvage what’s left of his life and find healing in all of this.

What a sad miscarriage of justice!

In the end, the jury voted 11-1 in favor of death — not enough to send Arias to death row in the case that became a global sensation with its tawdry revelations about her sexual relationship with the victim and that she had slit his throat so deeply that he was nearly decapitated.
