Human rights lobby group Jamaicans for Justice, JFJ, has again raised concern about the number of police fatal shootings. 

The concern comes after 6 males were fatally shot by police in 2 separate incidents in St. James and Westmoreland, yesterday.

In one of the incidents a 15-year-old student was fatally shot. 

The latest deaths push the number of people fatally shot by members of the security forces since the start of the year, to at least 89.

Speaking with Irie FM News this morning Executive Director of JFJ Mickel Jackson said the pace at which these fatal shootings are occurring continues to be cause for concern. 

She said if this trajectory continues, by year end, there could be 300 deaths resulting from police shootings.

Ms. Jackson reiterated that with conflicting reports from citizens and the police regarding incidents, the need for body worn cameras is paramount.

She said while she welcomes the work of the police and the reduction in murders, there is need for accountability. 

She has called on citizens to join in demanding the use of body-worn cameras and has noted that JFJ is to lead a peaceful protest on April 29 in half way tree.
