Miller, had been listed by police from the Counter Terrorism and Organized Crime Investigation Branch (C-TOC) as a person of interest several months ago. Despite pleas from the police for the Clansman Gang boss to turn himself in, he instead went into hiding.

Miller is set to be deported to Jamaica next week.

He was deported from the United States in 2016 after spending almost three years behind bars for entering the country illegally from Bahamas.

His name has been linked to several murders that have occurred in Spanish Town, Portmore and other sections of St Catherine.

The Clansman gang has been imploding ever since the demise of its leader, Donovan ‘Bulby’ Bennett at the hands of the police several years ago. Since Bennett’s death, more than 200 people have died violently in St Catherine where the gang has several bases, including the communities of Rivoli, Lakes Pen, Fish Ground, Jones Avenue and Tredegar Park.

Beheadings are a trademark of the gang. Several of Miller’s relatives have lost their lives in the ongoing gang feud.

The gang is known to run a multi-million dollar extortion racket in Spanish Town with its base at the municipal bus park. Despite the efforts of the security forces the racket is reportedly continuing as business and transport fear for their lives if they stand up to the criminals.
