Management of the Fort Young Hotel is not responsible for any item left unattended in their rooms.
This is according to a statement issued by the hotel today regarding the alleged burglary of the room of Jamaican reggae superstar Jah Cure last night.
The hotel says such notices are placed in every room and guests should take note of them.
The hotel says the option of safety deposit boxes is available to guests either in their rooms or at the front desk in accordance with international standards and best practices in the hospitality industry, indicating that the artiste could have made use of them.
According to a statement, the hotel’s board of directors and management are “deeply concerned” about what it considers “rush-to-judgment statements being made regarding today’s alleged incident.”
The hotel has assured that both police and management are investigating the matter.
Meanwhile, it is alleged that someone gained access to the room of the reggae artiste at 7:44 pm while he and his entourage were performing at the 14th World Creole Music Festival, and made off with a Rolex watch and a chain, both with a high value.
“It was unconditional disappointment, not unconditional love for me,” Cure said on Mat in the Morning radio interview today. “It was in my bag in the hotel room and it was supposed to be safe.”
“It had to be somebody that work here. It’s very unfortunate. It is something that has never happened before,” Cure said.
“I still love Dominica and I will return here,” he said, while calling for any assistance from the public to aid the police in their investigation in the recovery of his “favorite jewelry”.
I usually do not write many comments, however I read a great deal of remarks here Fort Young Hotel
And, if you are writing on
management not responsible for ‘Jah Cure’ burglary |
Dminica News Online. I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright.
Is it only me or do some of the comments look lioe they
are left by brain dead visitors?
other online social sites, I’d lke to follow you.
Would you post a list of every one oof all your soocial sites like your twittr feed, Facebook page or linkedin
profile?
To Jah Cure lying, he is not just like you and I! Speak for yourself not all people are corrupt. I dont know him but I can tell you Jamaicans do not wear bling any and everywhere, thats a good way to get robbed and a lash across your face. Any tourist who wears expensive things while traveling is asking for trouble.{No it is not right but its just the way it is]Best he stick with bamboo bling for true. And the employees at FYH need training in customer service BIG TIME!
He should hire a lawyer and sue the hotel. How can the Hotel management say they are not responsible when they suppose to provide security to their guest. He paid to stay at the hotel and now they are blaming him for his lost because a sign was posted in his room. So the management is saying they are not responsible for any crime which is committed on their property. That is insane I would file a civil lawsuit against them and let us see them defend that.
What you do in the dark will come to the light. Someone is guilty and its them that knows it.I can tell you that some of the women that work there are very Maco and they don’t miss a trick best you ask them what went on that night. And Jah Cure is giving Rastas a bad name.
dominican giving their country a bad name alyou must stop that habbity and make dominica a better place
dominicans didn’t need to do such a thing
Might be an insurance scam. Turn the proof on him to verify that the jewelry did exist, then see how he wants to proceed with any claims; ie if he persists in his burglary story.
Despite all what the man did in his life, the hotel has nothing to do with it… stop call him bad names because you all are listening to his music. whether or not he left the jewelry in the safe box, HIS ROOM supposed to be secure. I sure if someone robbed the hotel, they would go on each and every blassted camera to find who did it OKAYYY! so talk now….
Apparently, this Jah Cure is a fake. Rasta nah wear Rolex and blood diamonds. Why did he not wear his rolex on stage. He had a simple leader band watch and a liberation band. I guess he wants to portray that he is a rasta on stage….when he really is a bling bling pork eating deadlocks. There needs to be an intense investigation, because if this guy is not telling the truth, he will have to pay for messing with our reputation; he will have to be jailed at stockfarm and fed some fat pork.
Peace be with you jah cure – bling rasta.
@Agree with anonymous: YOU TALKING BULLOCKS CURE RETURNED TO HIS HOTEL WITH HIS MANAGER WHO AT TIME OF ARRIVAL TO THE HOTEL RETURNED ALSO TO HIS OWN ROOM AS WELL. CURE WAS ALSO ACCOMPANIED BY HIS ASSIGNED LIASON OFFICER (MALE BY THE WAY) VIA THE TRANSPORTATION ASSIGNED CURE RETURNED TO HIS HOTEL TO MERELY GET CLEANED UP TO RETURN TO THE PARK. CURE DID GET CLEANED UP AND WAS CHANGING ATTIRE AS HE SAID WHEN HE CITED THE ITEMS MISSING HE INDICATED THAT THE HOTEL MANAGEMENT WAS INFORMED THE POLICE WAS ALSO THEN INFORMED ACCORDING TO A DRAFT OVER THE HOTELS SYSTEM RECORDED ENTRY BY A MASTER KEY INTO THE HOTEL AT EXACTLY 7:44 MOMENTS WHEREIN CURE WAS AT THE VENUE AWAITING HIS PERFORMANCE ON STAGE —–GET YOUR ACT STRAIGHT YOU N UR QUESTIONS TO CURE
DID ANY OF YOU HERE THAT THE HOTEL COMPUTER SHOWS THAT THE ROOM WAS ENTERED INTO WITH A MASTER KEY AT THE TIME CURE WAS ON STAGE PERFORMING SO WHATS WITH THE ABSENT MINDEDNESS AS TO WHETHER IT HAPPENED , THE QUESTION SHOULD BE WHO DID IT AND WHY WAS THE PERSON SO DARM FOOLISH WHETHER THERE WAS SAFE BOXES OR NOT NO DARM HOTEL WORKER HAVE DE RIGHT TO INTERFER WITH ANY GUEST ITEMS U COME TO MAKE DE DANG BED MAKE IT N GO WT U DOING SEARCHING PEOPLE BAG —–OBSERVER U BETTER REMEMBER U USING A NAME THAT IS ALLOCATED TO ONE OF OUR CALYPSONIANS WITH YOUR FOOLISH NONSENSE IF IT DID NOT HAPPEN LIKE MANY OF YOU ALL ARE SUGGESTING HOW HE CAN BE ON A INSURANCE FRAUD AIRPORT OFFICIALS CAN ATTEST THAT CURE DID DECLARE HIS POSSESSIONS SO WAT U ALL SAYING
@Reality:
I don’t think the management of the hotel involved were in any way at fault. This isn’t the first time something like this is happening in Dominica or the rest of the world, hence the international standards for hotels with certain STAR ratings. How would more security work? Would they have to post a guard outside his room? Then the guest may complain about privacy. With the electronic keys and the safety deposit boxes and and option of a main safe (vault) in the hotel, i think that there are enough ways to key your possessions safe in any hotel meeting this standard. People who customarily use hotel rooms know this. If you go to a cheap motel you don’t leave anything of value in there. If you go to a high end hotel you use the security measure afforded to you. After all, you are paying for it.
Where is the proof that the artist has produced that the mentioned items are indeed missing/ How do we so quickly agree that a crime took place with no proof of such. Fort Yung’s approach is correct in it’s approach. The artist I am sure is aware of the practice of all international hotels and He should have used the safety box. If the crime was indeed perpetuated it should not be condoned but I’d be careful to pass judgement without proof.
it’s amazing, we spend so much time reading into this story but we cannot take a little more time to do some more research on this matter.
Jah Cure first of all is an artist who was sent to prison for 2 counts of rape, assault and roberry; the man is a thief! The Bible clearly says that you live by the sword you will die by the sword. So, IF he was robbed he is jus getting a little taste of what he put others through.
next, last week Jah Cure’s label released a statement that his new Techno Track was prematurely released and they have no clue as to how… http://www.dancehallusa.com/2010/11/jah-cure-video-leaked/ so they man was coming to dominica with his problem with him and he come dca to pass it out.
interestingly enough Jah Cure was arrested in Trinidad some time ago for failure to pay for a Trinidadian nearly US$20000. http://www.ttgapers.com/News/2009/11/8/jah-cure-arrested-in-trinidad-and-tobago/
Is it just me or are we noticing a trend here? I refuse to pick sides because I wasnt there and I don’t know what happen. All I know is everybody has to get what they deserve. If Jah Cure has to get his watch and chain back he will get them. If he doesnt then he won’t.
While we sit down on DNO calling Dcans all kinds of names it have for ppl all over the world to see, Jah Cure is still out there making money while ppl in St Lucia are dying from the same hurricanes Dominicans wanted to burn DFC for because they cancel Saturday’s show and Dominicans were not sure whether they would see Jah Cure.
Jah Cure and all the other artist you come to Dominica, do not use their best judgment, when they invite people in their rooms. They actually get the young ladies in their rooms, they sleep, if there is an appointment with the media, they leave the young lady in the room and go to their appointment. The young lady then becomes part of the party and enter the show without paying to see the show and remains backstage until it is time to go back to the hotel room. I think there should be tighter policy for these behaviors. I know they have feelings, but must choose the crop they go with.
Oh my! There are some people who are so negative and always think the worst.
Please wait until the investigation is complete. He will be questioned and about those whom he invited to the room and the time he left the room. Did he leave someone in the room?
It appears that everyone is an investigator. You should all be employed in the Police Force and in the Investigation Department. The various comments make me smile and also laugh.
I have not yet heard about the policy of Fort Young Hotel, if he signed out and in and whether the key was left at the reception desk when he left and when he returned if he had to go to the reception desk to get the key.
If Fort Young Hotel does not have this policy, I recommend from thereon that it implements it.
As for Fort Young Hotel, what is meant by they are not responsible for thefts/lost articles? If per chance one of their employees used a master key to enter the room, they are downright responsible and will have to pay up.
In addition, was Jah Cure advised about not leaving valuables in the room and to place them in a security box?
Dominica being a small country and staying in a reputable hotel he probably never gave it a thought that his valuables would have been stolen.
I have also considered that if he is aware that the jewellery of people could be stolen, he decided to leave them in his room and thought that they were safe.
Those who reside in Dominica are fully aware that there are some people who are bold enough to steal the chains, watches and even purses of others. These thefts have occurred.
Considering that many people visit from different countries for this occasion, who knows how many of those are law-abiding, to put it mildly.
I do think that Fort Young Hotel should be concerned that their good reputation may be ruined by this and they may lose business due to this. All the same, a thorough investigation should be conducted.
@natasa: How do you know a crime was committed?
You are doing the same thing you are accusing other people of doing?
Let the investigators do their job, and stop making assumptions.
What i don’t understand about this robbery i the time frame, it is alleged some one gained access to the room at 7:44 ,what time did he leave the roomor better yet the hotel compound, what time did he arrive at the stadium, how long did he perform ,what time did he return to the hotel , what time did he go to his room, at what time did he discover the items missing, Put all the time together and tell me 7:44 unless their is a electronic system where by you use a swipe card to gain entry.
@Anonymous:
Well said. Speak for the pride of our country! Way to go!!!
Why would you just leave all that expensive stuff down anyways. I believe Jahcure is a liar like he is a rapist. And here are the foolish dominicans helping him bring us down. As for Dbs radio. WHy couldn’t you just leave the police do their do. Why broadcast a here say from jahcure anyways. And as someone said if it was a dominican who has been convicted for rape they would not even get to play on creole fest for free much less to get paid all that money. We in Dominica like what is not ours too much and we wonder why we aren’t on the map.
@ Marigot Boss. Aye some of us just blind. And see women die for Jahcure you know. A CONVICTED RAPIST. I wasnt there but the courts found him guilty of rape so that is enough for me. And by the way Jahcure Rasta doe dwell on bling.
People are so quick to bring down their people. How are we so sure that Jah Cure had in his room what he claimed was stolen anyways. IF his stuff was stolen you think the thief is going to say “Oh let me leave that alone because it is the great Jahcure.” PLEASEE. DNO next stroy please. I just hate when people act like that. Oh my God why did that happen???? Give a a damn break. NEXTTTTTTTTTT
@D/CA for JESUS: What is wrong with you people. Such
Ignorance.FYH is responsible for the safety of all their guest. They are
Not responsible for any personal belongings left in the room.
I live in Canada and I’m always traveling because of my job,never have I left my travel documents
Or valuables in my hotel room, that is just stupid. No one knows what happened, it could be one of
His own people who took it or someone he invited to his room
Stop putting your country and people down.
I vacationed in negril Jamaica in July, and I think I know they stress in the hotel every time you go
To the front desk is don’t leave your valuables in the room.
So coming from Jamaica he knows better.
I cant believe the level of Stupidity of some Dominicans!!! If these comments reflect the level of intelligence of some of our people then i feel sorry for them! Is this really the way we want to portray our country? As a bag of STUPIDITY?!!! We should be ashamed of the people that brought shame to our country! Instead we bring more shame on our country with these IDIOTIC comments!!! The artiste performed excellent!!! And while he was entertaining us a thief was taking what he/she/they did not work for! Come on people stop supporting the negative!!! A crime was committed and it was wrong so why are we supporting this?
We need forencis in Dominica. End of story
@positive: nonsense!!!!
Skerit didn’t ask Cure to plot a lie against D/cans to see if he could be compensated for his lie . Further i learnt a man isn’t guilty unless he is proven so by court of law . quit being dumb supriyah
allu hear how dominicans talking about each other and bringing down the country…lol lemme hold my mouth….not a white man nuh…tal
Jah Cure do right if it was one of dominica’s leading artist that went to prison for rape de festival committee would’nt even give them the time of day to even pay them $70.000. It is creole festival not Jamacan reggea they always have to put these artist in our thing, so many bands Dominica have give them exposure. JAH CURE YOU DO RIGHT.
aye stop hating on my boo jah cure eh now…..i never knew dominca hav all dat HATERz…..well i know u know but come on nah mn…..give d mn props…………………….haterz fire go bon allu
allu acting to uncivilised grow up…..big men and women………jah cure irie now….God will deal with this…whoever is da culprit will be judge accordingly……my fellow dominicans be wise ,act wise and u’ll remain wise …..remember dominica news online is for the world to see
Dominicansss soooo stupid…from outside looking in dominica looks soo stupid……read the comments below….wawww…its crazy how some people think. that is why skerrit is in office right now
Natasa quit you as a fool . If you’re D/can you should be ashame right now . No crime was nor has been committed . The only crime was created by a man who claimed to have had a rolex and chain which was stolen , all in his annoyance with settlement with hotel and passed on to DFC . We’re all called thieves and you siding a jerk who frame us . foolish
@natasa: we all understand no one had the right not to go to his room but are u 100% sure is that what happen, i agree with [look stupid people}, u are not god so do i none of us know for sure what happen that night it could be many things. If it so happen it was a women he brought to his room that cause this whole commotion i believe u would have feel stupid and take a stick and knock your self out for being foolish. theeee loooool
if this was a crime , then it’s very easy to solve, the only persons who have access to master keys are the hotel managers, the maids has a different key where they can only access the rooms they are suppose to clean which is usually done during the day between the hours of 9 am and 3pm, they also has to sign there name and signature, the time they recieve the key and the time they return it in order to recieve that key. outside companies such as exterminators has access to the master key because they has to spray all the rooms, but they also has to sign name, signature ,time in an time out in order to recieve that key and usually they are accompanied by a security guard,which is also done during the day. so if cure’s statement is true, then the hotel could tell exactly who used the key an what time they used it. the hotels also make it known to there guests that they won’t be resposible for lost or stolen items, its pointed out to every guest and its written in the rent contract. that’s why they always advise guest to make use of the safety deposit box in the room which they have to pay extra to recieve the key or code for that box.
mr.cure is no saint , remember he was onced jailed for robbery/raped is his own country j/a, so don’t be supprised if this is just a stunt to get his insurance to pay for the rolex, every legal rolex owner in the world is rquired get insurance, can’t buy a vehicle from a dealer and drive it out the lot without insurance , same goes for a rolex, cant get out of the store without insurance, all rolex has a serial number which matches the owner. mr.cure has to present the papers of the rolex and picture of him wearing the rolex in dominica and have the police search all his entourage including him before i could blame my people.
every artise comes on stage with there jewery and at a point in the show they hand over jewelry hats etc to a member of there antourage on stage. furthermore if you are coming to dominica with a watch and not planning to wear it, then what,s the point of bringing it. why are you on stage with a fake watch while the other valuable one is just lying around in some hotel room.check the facts people. mr.cure is looking to claim some insurance money or one of his entourage took it cus he didn’t pay them, dno cud tract my ip address , i don’t mind, i will say it on live tv if i have too, i will even say it on re tv if they let me. don’t let cure’s voice full us , the guy is a former raper/robber.
again check the facts before we point our fingers on dominicans or anyone else for that matter.
–reply
ahwah wi.all dat ppl have to say bout da yout?if it was to happen to allu den u all will say sumting else.stop falsely accusing da man about he lying and a bunch of folly.stop bear false witness.y would do da man waste his time goin thru all dat drama for $ from insurance or hotel?da yout just made a heap of $$ frm his show dere,da yout perform in front of hundreds of thousands of ppl mekin millions so da man goin tie up hiself over a petty change?come on ppl be wise.nowdats a bad vibes for dca and fyh bcuz i bet ppl who com dca will think twice about fyh once they know of dis.n e way ppl learn to love one another.
first of all the man is an international singer and one i believe gone through the law look like in many ways. Has any one ever stop and think the man might have pick up some paroooh to his room for *** and of cause they will steal if they get the opportunity to do so, i am not saying his jewelery did not get stolen it could have happen , people before all that saying Dominican are the worst this and the worst that stop and think, not because he is international don’t mean he is not liable of being a shame to say i pick up this girl i *** her and next thing i know she take my watch and chain. don’t u all know this could happen to. listen up, Dominican need to be more smart than that don’t let people from other countries come to D/A and laugh from their inside believing D/A people are fools the man from Jamaica where crimes are at it pick worse than D/A, i have travel a lot see a lot so i know what am saying.
A lot could have happen that night , the reason i came up with a women he brought to his room is because they are just on one factor, ooooh some body took master key to open room , yes it could be that or many many other things. Dominican speak of intelligence and be smart we are in the 2000 century where every thing is modern, other countries are head smart and on top of it , if they can do it we can to, come on Dominica move forward for the time and date is.
Do your research! typical ploy used by these artists to bilk the hotels.
I wish DNO had closed this forum for comments because all i’m reading is a bunch of stupid comments by a bunch of douchebags.. I might as well have a drink for ya’ll. A crime was commited why are people trying to sugar-coat it. The young man was in his paid hotel room, weather he left his belongings on the table in his room or the bed etc NO ONE had the right to enter when he was out if he did not give permission. Don’t make excuses for theifs.. U can steal from a drunk, a crack head, the rich, poor etc its still calling stealing because it ain’t yours. Its not about oh he wants to give dominica a bad name, i’m pretty sure this was not his first visit. Why do we uphold nonsense? Some folks talking bout he ain’t a real rasta bec he’s wearing a rolex, are you serious? When you work hard aren’t you supposed to enjoy the fruits of your labor and buy what you want? why are our people so backward. Its time we grow out of that frame of mind we are stuck in. I can bet if the incident were reversed and some of you were the victim hell would have no fury so stop all that mess. Get the facts first before posting. Don’t just rush to judgement because everyone else is. Be a got dang leader not a follower ya’ll.
@Annonymous:
sounds like you know a lot about what went on that eventful evening…
you know who stole his belongings also??
@Agree with anonymous: And… what is your point???
Jah Cure probably insured his watch and he trying to collect money from the insurance. Why choose Dominica ??? Jah Cure know what it feels like to be wrongly accused.He spent so many years in jail for accused rape. Misery likes Company!!!!! We all know about Jamaicans Con-ARTISTS !!!!! A THIEF STEALS ALL HE CAN GET NOT SPECIFIC ITEMS.
mr lying on my dominica. why he didnt use the safe. i bet if he was in jamaica he would use the safe. he need to go back ” behind these prison walls”
@Agree with anonymous: ok? ur point?
@january till december: well said
@pal: do u bring your house every where u go sot?
@Like it: Don’t tell me that’s u…..u give him woman man…..or she working for u? lol
@tell me: everybody is different. the man making his money so he buys what he wants. if u were making money u would live in vanity so shut your raggedy mouth

I’m trying to wrap my mind on the approach Fort Young Hotel has taken in this issue. We are talking about the image of Dominica for one ( major thing) and even your image FYH as a famous hotel in Dominica. That statement was uncalled for. Whether he used the service of the safety deposit box or NOT, should not erase the fact that a high profile artist was robbed at the hotel. It is very disturbing to think that, this is the outcome of such a disheartening incident. many may conclude that he may have fabricated the story, but personally I don’t believe so. This is not a light issue and it should not have been dealt with so casually. Dominica is a “developing country” not a developed country. We can’t afford anything to taint the image of Dominica and drive tourist away from our beloved country. This is very very sad.
@Annonymous: I totally agree with Annoynemous! You said it right! nothing else to be said!
So why is he calling on Dominicans for help? Maybe the woman/women he had in his room he dont even know their names muchless for their address.
well I guess he never saw it coming ….But please people don’t be misled Dominicans … thats just a lame story.
Jah cure am a big fan … but you’re not telling the truth.. don’t tarnish the name of my country . Maybe
you misplaced it or something.
WHAT A LAUGH, IT IS RATHER SAD THAT JAHCURE CHOSE DOMINICA TO COMMIT HIS CRIME, PLEASE! YOUR ROOM WAS BROKEN ONTO U NEVER WORE THE CHAIN NOR WATCH IN DOMINICA AND CONVIENTLY A DOMINICAN KNEW EXACTLY WHERE IT WAS AND TOOK ONLY THE CHAIN AND ROLEX AND LEFT THE OTHER, PLEASE NIGGA COME AGAIN WITH YOUR OLD STORY. AM NO LONGER GONNA PLAY HIS MUSIC AT MY HOME……
o dear poor dominica is having a rough time at the moment, the worlds eyes read the news, and no matter where or who took the watch, its still bad press AGAIN.
i hope no matter the truth, it come out as soon as possible,
Jah Cure needs to give a list of names of all the women who he had coming and going into his room to the police. Turning the place into a brothel! How about the one who stole his BB and it was found after she was accousted? How about the number of keys which he requested for that room? Who did he give the keys too? It may very well be one of the women brought in by him or his entourage. All these questions need to be asked before pointing fingers at Fort Young and rushing to judgement.
No one in his/her right thinking mind would leave such a valuable piece of jewelry in his hotel room without having it in a safety deposit box. A box, that you and you only have the combination to!
@Well Sah Dominichen!!: thank u
i did know for a fact that this was not the truth, when everyone was giving bad name to dominicans for jah cure, i always knew that this was a lie, i live in us and the jamaican ppl are the worse liar and thieves, he should have worn his best jewelry at the concert and not leave it behind, and he has the aproximate time it was stolen 7.44 wow !!!, he had his eyes on his room whilst he was performing?
rolex my foot and the watch he was performing with wwas ugly, he should have left that one in the room and place the rolex on his wrist,
WAS TELLING THIS STORY TO A JAMAICAN FRIEND AND THEY TOLD ME IF WE BUY IT………….THEY TOLD ME IT MAYBE ONE OF HIS OWN FOLLOWERS WHO TOOK IT BECAUSE THERE PEOPLE LIKE TO TOUCH OTHER PEOPLE THING
@Oh plzzz:
Agree, I’ve been to FYH many times as a Diaspora and the customer service was not up to par for a star rated hotel! For example, hotel employees were hanging around chatting loud and joking with each other in the restaurant front desk area. This was not what I expected….
I think sometimes we think that we are the only ones reading what happens on our island. The bigger picture here is that, this is BAD PRESS for our island. Whether it’s a lie or not! Our island is small, beautiful, and is still considered one of the safest islands in the Caribbean and this is what we market to potential visitors.
We are doing a disservice to our island by posting negative comments about this. As one of our reggae artist Nasio states’ Truth Will Reveal”. Remember we are a refection of our people and what we post tells people about us…
@jah cure trying a thing!: If you had half a brain you would realize that the “master key” is not an actual key. It’s a card that you are issued and you swipe it to open your hotel room. So the records would show what time it was swiped.
HI,FYH it’s a shame, This hotel suppose to be a 4-5 star. hello where are the cameras, check them, The room open with the master key, sorry that an inside job. but valuable stuff like this should be in the safe provided, but why he didn’t wear his accessories on that night. maybe he forget but i hope he learn put your stuff in the safe box, Rolex worth $10.000 us, most people do have insurance on this stuff, he travell alot, his lawyer would have advice him, The Manager who hold that master key need to be investigate, not Jah cure. He is a guest, Some thing wrong, sad bad name for the hotel, the world read about this fyh. I am a dominican living in Europe. and reading this is bad for business, people are not safe in your hotel. next is muder when someone sleeping, he is an Artist, means high security. and if his Jewelries was stolen, I never know dominican as such thieves. No one going to walk from outside go in the front desk key locker, take the master key, how the thief knew his room, someone in side is involve, Where are the polices. The owner need to open his eye, you have a beautiful hotel please save it from shame.
after all that is said……the fact remains that this is a nasty stain not only for the leading three star hotel in Dominica but its citizens by extension ……the same people who are said to be warm and friendly,….i hope this serves as a lesson to all and I pray that this unfortunate event never repeat itself……God Is not a police
tell me did he give the exact time it went missing? if so then he knows who took it
@Oh plzzz:
Agree!
This is what happens when business become complacent with their status in society. They slack off because they know they have little competition. Maybe this will teach them a lesson. They always have high profile guests so extra security measures should be taken in those times.
If someone did steal his jewelry its wrong! No matter where he left it! No one has the right to steal anyone’s property. Why isn’t the hotel shaking down their staff, checking the log to see who had the master key?
The statement FYH made was not good PR on their part, and this is supposed to be the best hotel on the island?
Fort Young, Really? The man room was open with a Master Key, Security Deposit of not, the man room was open with a Master key, this mean that one of ur employee is the culprit…do the necessary investigation and get Dominica name out of this mess, instead of you putting out this ridiculous statement…
oh and by the way, stop having your employees use the hotel like is there own family property, its a Hotel, do i need to remind you’ll of that.. extremely poor customer service.
I’m not yet ready to make a judgment but his statement on not wanting the information leaked and it was going to be on face book and twitter certainly raised a red flag for me. I suggest we reserve our judgment until the investigation is over because this guy isn’t all that innocent. I still think he is one of the greatest performers around today.
YOU KNOW HE SHOULD USE THE SAFETY BOX.. BUT WE ARE ALL HUMANS, JAH CURE FEELS COMFORTABLE IN DOMINICA,HE FEELS SAFE. I SAW HIM ON FACEBOOK IN PICTURES WITH FRIENDS AND FANS NEXT TO FORT YOUNG HOTEL. I MEAN IF HE LET HIS GUARDS DONE AND FEELS SAFE ,LEAVING IN A HURRY EXCITED TO GO PERFORM FOR THE FANS…. NO ONE ,, NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO GO INTO THE MAN HOTEL ROOM ,SEE HIS JEWELLERY AND TAKE IT.. ITS WRONG. ITS NOT GODLY, ITS WRONG… THE BIBLE SAYS DONT STEAL…
SHAME ON THE PERSON WHO WENT INTO THE MANS ROOM AT 7.44 PM. SHAME ON THEM…
WHO HAS ACCESS TO THE MASTER KEY?? HIGH LEVEL HOTEL MANAGEMENT….. WHO CAME ON THE AIR TO DEFEND THE THIEF???? HIGH LEVEL HOTEL MANAGEMENT
No one is in a position to make any conclusions.
You dominicans have too much lang sal.
All you hitting the artist, all you hitting the hotel.
Ease up on the scandal for once and let the police do its job.
To FYH, a surveillance system needs to be installed and other hotelier should take heed as well.
@Confusion,Ignorance,or just Stupidity?????.: I guess you have never used the services of a hotel. They are not liable. They have protected themselves from such by use of the disclaimer. And yes, cleaning or housekeeping is done at any time when the client is out of the room. If you think they are responsible then take them to court on behalf of Jah Cure. Guess who is ignorant now! Hotels protect themselves just like doctors. When going for surgery they make you sign a document saying you will not sue them if something goes wrong. Wake up moron!!
mr is a damn lair at best! so how he know the exact time they entered his room while he was on stage? am just an ordinary person and whenever i travel i know better not to even leave a good pair of shoes in my hotel room much less for my expensive jewelry!jah cure saying that is in the morning he only saw the safe deposit sign proves that mr just making up stories and think becuz his music is liked by dominicans he can plan his story,give us more bad name than we have,cash big on his so called rolex and chain,plus get compensated from the hotel.but he lie.he will go to his insurance and get compensated for his lie but he not getting nothing more from us more than what he got at the festival.
dominicans just like to drink all tablet people give them without even looking at it or drinking water so it can go down proper.
tell jah cure if he missed any chain,rolex or blackberry (cuz suddenly he went police station saying his blackberry missing to and i find it strange) tell mr cure the woman he had in his hotel room that took his blackberry but he didnot miss any chain or watch and he can take that to the bank.
@Agree with anonymous: inspite of all what u all want to say about jah cure u all people not see what u all are doing telling the world that we are just like the other countries no difference. we should deal with this matter much civil than that,the international hotels would still deal with that issue better than how we dealing with it right now, we say that we are the nature isle of the world were the vistors feel relaxed and free from all the international pressure when the come they feel very safe and we should give them that certainty. i feel that the man felt that he was going to a peaceful country where all he’s normal way of traveling and doing things was very relaxed “a difference” personnally i think we will pay for how we dealt with this matter think different DOMINICA.
I and am wondering if he wasn’t Jamaican if the responses would be more moderate. The customer is always right; and in this case, until there is an impartial investigation which removes all doubt from the hotel, he was robbed!!! Plain and simple. Put yourselves in his shoe- You visit another island , leave your room and later find you have been robbed. People start saying you are lying, you just want money etc.What would you think of that place? how would you feel? I think it is better to investigate thoroughly, then when the verdict comes in, if he is lying… Give him HELL.
I do not believe anything was stolen from Jah Cure. I am sure this is not his first time in a hotel – he and his management MUST know what is hotel protocol. Who leaves valuables in a hotel room? That’s why your rooms are fitted with SAFEs..duh. I had a friend from IMF here recently who placed some stuff in the safe in his room and misplaced the key. It took FYH over an hour to open the safe for him.
Come on Jah Cure stop treating us like DUMMYs INCANS……we know about hotels ok.
Typical J&^%$$ con man trying to pull a fast one on us. For my part he is the one passing like the fool.
I livin dominica 4 how many years now, my favorite artiste is Sizzla Kalonji….a rel rasta man…so how jah cure a rasta man dr n wearing dr expensive jewlery? If it was bamboo he was rockin his precious would b safe. Think of it.
“the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”
That is my country Dominica for you…. a set of small minded folks who are quick to defend foreign while pushing down their own.
I agree with the questions posed by ‘Agree with anonymous’.
If he is performing at an event, how is it then that he knows the exact time that the items were taken from the room and by whom? You ALL watch so much television, have you ever heard an investigative report giving specifics before the investigation is conducted??
Wow!
@ Jah Cure lying …Respect to u…please try to put some sense in our small thinking Dominican minds…i love ur thinking
@ Dominique…is Jah Cure a God or wat?…Nonesense!!!
Dont want to cast any judgment any ways. But .
You are staying at a hotel and preparing to go out. Not going to bed…or in the bath. (that’s the only time that I feel that one may accidentally live their valuables hanging around) You are gong out, most of us would put on our watch and expensive chain because it is a part of our dress. after-all we are going on stage in public.
Unless he traveled with more than one expensive watch and more than one expensive chain and then most of us know that one must secure your valuables when you are living any hotel room.
Anyways..having said this…. stuff do happen…if this is the case…I apologize on behalf of my country for all the inconvenience caused.
things should be safe in a hotel room, period! a place like FYH with so many visitors and celebrity visitors that should be their top priority, security and safety of the visitors and their belongings, so that shit about safety box does not make any sense to me. stupes review the cameras. this statement released is not helping the situation at all! if FYH is not safe then the executive director and others involve with the WCMF must reconsider when and where they book artist.
@Television: You’re right about the surveillance and the need for cameras. Also, if his room was indeed accessed with a “master key”, then brickbats to the hotel for not having a system in place to secure the room keys. But do you want Fort Young Hotel to supply him with bodyguards too! We need to know where to draw the line and how to be objective. If he needed any extra security, it should have been provided by DFC, as he was in their immediate care and were his direct hosts.
Besides the absence of cameras in the halls, etc., the main fault I can think of on the hotel’s part is that they probably didn’t suggest strongly enough that he store his valuables in a safety deposit box. But in the end, there is no way they can force any individual to do what they don’t want to do.
In the end, it looks badly on Dominica as a country…
Keep this in mind though; the story here is very incomplete. There could be other parties involved that we know nothing of. Maybe a recent “girl friend” or a jealous bodyguard, etc. Let’s keep our minds open.
That’s My2Sense.
for someone like me who spend 75% of my time in hotels you come to trust that when you leave your stuff in the room it is safe especially if you put up that “DO NOT DISTURB” sign on the door no one is supposed to enter the room not management not staff so if mr.cure did leave his belonging in his room(for argument sake) i think inspite of all their postings management should be responsible for their voler staff. Hotels have a log showing which room is occupied and which is not and when a room is occupied unless you ask for service no one is supposed to enter the room while you still have occupancy of that room…Well although many things are suspect like what time someone entered the room ect ect i still think that it is a crying shame on dominicans….
@rude boy: The man shoulda secure his socalled favorite jewelry. The facilities for securing such stuff is there, why didnt he use it. And how he know is at 7.44 pm they stole his belongings? You sure that not an insurance scam?
Despite the fact that jah cure’s jewelery was stolen FORT YOUNG HOTEL should be ashamed not only for not taking responsibility for the missing items but for POOR SECURITY.. how shameful ! i’d never influence any one to stay at this hotel if thats how easily things get stolen
Jah cure have all his belongings. He should be searched before living DA. Those Jamacians things Dominicians stupid. He wants more more than what he got paid for the show.
@Agree with anonymous:
first off, whomever you are, i would hate to have u represent me in anything. almost all your questions are irrelevant.
the record shows that someone using a master key entered the room at 7:44. this isn’t the psychic notion of the artiste. the hotel’s records show it. thats why he can say it with such confidence. if it weren’t the case, the hotel would have shot it down by now.
-the fact that his room was accessed in his absence creates enough reasonable doubt to support his claim of being robbed.
-to ask when he left or returned to the room is irrelevant. the record at the front desk will show when the key they issued to him was used and a time line would be established.
-if he had left the room unlocked then there would be no need for the use of a master key.
-the fella didn’t state it as a FACT that it was a hotel staff. he was putting forward logical reasoning when he suggested that it is most LIKELY to have been a hotel employee. more-so someone in management.
next time i suggest you take time out to think about the questions before asking them because if u were actually in court your opponent would constantly get on your ass about incompetence, comparing u with your client for not THINKING THINGS THROUGH before proceeding.
@lucy:
Be real have you ever flown into Canefield Airport? and would you recommend tourist fly into that airport? and if you have been out of Da how many times have you asked to be flown into that Airport? it should be used for cargo only.
I DO NOT BELIVE HIM, JAMAICANS TOO BADDDDDD. WANT TOO GIVE D/A A BAD NAME.
So Jah Cure wasn’t going to wear his Rolex and expensive chain for the event what he bring it for?I have a little problem in believing that you know.
allu too sott… would u perform at a show witha close crowd with ur expensive jewelery? allu too like to upport stupidness and nonsense… the man thing is suspected to be stolen… he didnt steal it from himself… if i travel should i walk with my bag on me…should he have gone on stage with all his belongings? he figured it was safe at the hotel and some one stole it…. stop putting hand in fire for a theif.. y would he claim they stole from him this time ? not 1st time he coming? some voleh that workin there that do that. come on ppl some body took advantage of the opprtunity..sacway voleh..and dem nppl tryin to protect their name and say is his fault… if the rooms not safe y should ppl go there? next thing is kill they will kill ppl
THE SAFE IS AN OPTIONAL THING DOMINICANS…YOU TLAKING ABOUT RICH? JAH CURE IS NOT RICH…..RICH IS THE TYPE OF PEOPLE WHO COME TO THE HOTEL WHERE I USED TO WORK. MOVIE STARS, MUCIS STARS AND THEIR FAMILIES COMING ON VACATION, MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS MEN AND WOMEN AND MANY TIMES, THEY DONT USE THE SAFE. THEIR STUFF IS LYING ALL OVER THE ROOM AND NOT ONCE HAS ANYONE COMPLAINED ABOUT MISSING ANYTHING. WORKERS AT SUCH INSTITUTIONS NEED TO LEARN TO RESPECT PEOPLE’S PROPERTY. FORT YOUNG NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW THAT KIND OF PUBLICITY CAN AFFECT THEM. NASSIEF GET YOUR FOOT OUT OF YOUR A** AND INVESTIGATE YOUR STAFF.
what are you people talking about? Please, I hope so of these people writing are not Dominican.
You should be able to leave you items on the side road and come back 24hrs later and the things should still be there.
A secure hotel, you pay for, and you talking about if he left the door open.
I hope the police get to the buttom of this, because that is showing Dominican in a very bad light.
And please ppl learn to see things and keep you hand to your sides. Close your eyes and walk away. oh my people.OMG.
The man can leave his stuff where ever he wants,it’s just that some da people need to work hard for what they want and stop trying to bling on other hard working peoples sweet
It would be very sad if someone actually stole his jewelery from his bag, and even worse if that person is an employee. However, I travel often for meetings both in and out of the region. IN every room I have been I see the notices of safety and warnings to use the safe that is placed in the room. Most hotels will not take responsibility for things that are left in the open room and not placed in the safe.
There is something called being responsible and whatever I think is valuable I place it in the safe. The combination you use to lock it ensures that only you can unlock it. I would be really sad as I said before, but really it would not be the hotel’s fault if the safe was not used.
Every single hotel manager is aware that the persons employed are humans and may touch. They do stress on respecting clients’ personal property, but people are people. Jah Cure is supposed to know better as a traveling artist.
But if someone really stole, WHY CAN’T WE LEARN TO LEAVE OTHER PEOPLE’S PROPERTY ALONE. IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD SOMETHING EITHER ASK FOR YOU – THE WORST YOU COULD HEAR IS NO – OR DO WITHOUT IT!
If the guy’s room was entered with a master key and his valuables were stolen then thats a shame. Shame on the person who did it. But I cannot help but questioning some of the judgements made by such an international artiste who has travelled the globe and in my estimation has stayed in much more luxurious hotels as Fort Young. Now why would I travel with such an expensive piece of jewelery and not found wearing it on the night of my performance? I would imagine he travelled along with the watch for that purpose. Secondly, the hotel gives it guest not only one but two options to utilize the safety deposit boxes in either their rooms or at the front desk, none of which was exercised by Jah Cure. The hotel cannot be held responsible for his neglegence. You can bring a horse to the water but you cant make it drink. You provided the water now its up to the horse to drink or not but you cant blame yourself if the horse decides not too and then falls down.
rolex not for jah cure lol,,,,real rastaman doh wear dem tings dere,,,,,them tings is vanity boi,,,jus pass d man a bag of weed n all good man,,,ayay i wonder if it was Dice jewellery if allu would come out full force,,, if it was Dice allu would say it make right they rob him lol,,,,i find allu come out well hard for jah cure eh,,,,well mr is a millionaire n he got well paid to do the show,,,so he not hurting,,,,plus Cure story have too much holes in it,,,,any way the truth will reveal,,,,whoever did that shame on u,,,,but i guess it reflects on the condition of some of our people,,,where there is lack of job n increase in poverty then there will be a rise in crimes,,,,whether is white collar or black collar crimes,,,,crime is crime,,,ministers stealing so is not low paid employees dat will not steal lol
TO HELP WID HA CURE D MAN IS A RAPIST ALLU FORGET IS DAT D MAN GO JAIL FOR MAN STUPESSS TO HELL WID JAH CURE
I STRESS AND I STRESS EVEN MORE THAT THE ONLY PERSON TO BLAME IS THE THIEF! SHAME ON YOU. MAY THE GOOD LORD OVERCOME YOU SO THAT YOU WILL CHANGE YOUR WAYS FOR THE BETTER.
For those of you who are not familiar with international hotel rules. you are responsible for your personal items. That means even if the theft happened among staff, the hotel will not reimburse you. Many staff are aware of this and they will take advantage of it. It is the law therefore the hotel gets away with it. By the way accusing the singer of being from a country of high theft is uncalled for. You expect a certain level of protection when you stay at any hotel. we depend on tourism for income and i believe we should treat all with respect. Words spread quickly. Reviews are out there and they are being read. If you truly love your country, treat it’s visitors with respect and they will come back. By the way i am a Dominican living in the US, if i can read the crap that some of you put on there so can strangers wanting to visit.
VAMPIRES.CURE I KNOW YOU DO NOT EXPECT THAT FROM DOMINICANS BUT THE PEOPLE ARE CHANGING FAST . THE WORLD CREOLE MUSIC FESTIVAL HAS CREATED MANY VAMPIRES. .THE FESTIVAL COMISSION SUCKING THE BLOOD O F THE VENDERS.INVITING RASTA ARTISE TO DRAW RASTA AND WEED SMOKERS TO THE SHOW SO THAT THE POLICE CAN AREST THEM FOR A JOINT. WHERE IN THE WORLD CAN THAT HAPPEN.THE RASTA GOD JUST GIVE THEM BAD WEATHER.NO LOVE NO FESTIVAL.LIVE AND LET LIVE DOMINICANS.
I stayed at fort young in august and during my stay I used their safe to secure my money and passport. I went out for a morning jog and when I returned i found the safe wide open but nothing was taken from it..I’m still 100% sure that I locked the safe when I left. I had problems with the safe the night before and had an employee enter the room to fix the problem…I’m not accusing the employee but that was too ironic..
did they steal his wallet too and his passport? any cash was stolen? CREDIT CARDS? I WONDER?
@rude boy: @CONTESSA:
Oh yes they are!….Most definitely,they are responsible for the safety of their guests, and the guest’s belongings as well….. As long as it is on their property, including the rooms. They are responsible, and will be held liable…….Those signs don’t mean a damn thing…Know your Rights, people……
It is a bloody shame that with all those “high profile” artist staying at that Hotel,the security was not beefed up….Management should be ashamed of themselves,and must take full responsibility.
According to the information, a duplicate key, to wit a master key was used to gain access and enter his room.The items in question were in the guest’s bag,where they were subsequently stolen by some person or persons. No one has any right to go in the guest’s bag or bags to search, and or to pilfer.
From the looks of it, indications are, some person or persons who work for the Hotel, obtained a duplicate or a master key illegally(or legally????)….
What was the valid reason for entering the guest’s room in his absence at that time of night?,what was the purpose, but criminal intent?……….You mad man?,..not responsible?………
They are LIABLE,and will be held as such!…They are telling you about signs posted, but why don’t they tell you about the rules and regulations of Hotels, pertaining to employees,guests,guests belongings, their rooms, and privacy?.
It seems to me that we are leaving in a Country,where “theft”,deceit,and dishonesty,are becoming the norm……from top to bottom,and bottom to top!,…..And that, my fellow Dominicans, is very ,very sad….
All the best,…and may GOD help us all.
@ agree wit anonymous….i suspect jah curee go with yo woman wii palll hahahahaha…..
so u mean to tell me……anybody can steal legally……at a hotel…and the cleaners and nobody cant account for it…..wo w great way …….dominica have all kinds of corrution damnn wee getting goood….next level…wiii papa
I agree with the hotel. We need to realize the hotel security is responsible for the safety of guests not there valuables. Do we really expect guards to stand outside an empty room, to protect merchandise that’s supposed to be secured in a safety box.
The reason why hotels have these options is because they will never know what a person is entering the hotel with. Anyone can claim something was stolen. So to avoid fraud and theft they have this option.
Security boxes are for valuables and he has traveled before and should of used his box. If someone stole his stuff I hope they find out whom, that person is giving Dominica and Fort Young a bad reputation.
No matter if your famous or not you have to take some responsibility for your own negligence especially since the hotel is following international policies.
I do not believe for one moment that JAH CURE had any such valuables in his hotel room. This man is an international star from JAMAICA, home of crime!!! He has stayed in numerous hotels. The disclaimer is international. No matter which hotel you go to, the same rules apply. Valuables left in your room at your own risk. Now, let us say I have a rolex watch and I going to perform on stage, you mean I would leave it in my bag in my hotel room and perform in a Grand Bazaar $10.00 watch!! Bull!!
JAH CURE take your creole fest money and make a down payment on a rolex! Until then, stop spoiling our image with your propaganda. Fort Young Hotel has been around for decades and we have not had such negative publicity. This is Dominica not Montego Bay. Come sing and leave. Go bellyache somewhere else!!!
DFc must make Cure apologise for degradatory statements hailed at FYH poor hotel . Cure doe put ur foot D/ca again remember how we had stone an artist before who was performing . doe come here and mess around D/ca dread , your liar dread that eating pork and chicken bouy .
Too much blaming…Everyone thinks he/she is a qualified investigator. Let the parties involved do their work. Let’s withhold our comments until we have something substantial to comment on.
On Wednesday we will celebrate 32 years of independence, let’s stop this bringing down each other. Let’s promote our beautiful nature isle via sites like these. Let us all be agents of change, Dominica is OURS, our own to develop, cherish and protect. So my fellow citizens, before we come here and do irreparable damage to our country’s image, I urge you to think twice before selecting the “submit” button.
Happy independence my fellow brothers and sisters…the Nature Isle is ours, let’s show her our utmost love.
Tell them investigate d little woman he had in his room
Jah Cure you claimed to know the time your watch was stolen and it’s at a time you were on stage performing . As such i’m led to believe that you had persons in your room before and after you left your room . Also i’m persuaded that at 7:44 maybe someone called you to tell you it was done or the persons who were present in your room took your rolex . I refuse to believe your statements and accusations made against these hard working and trust worthy staff who’ve never had this situation ever , but with a Jamaican .
Let summon our people to quit ye like fools , listen to the situation before you quickly mesmerize and tarnish the image and integrity of our wonderful nation . This man who performed was given a safety advise upon his entering the room at FYH . Dubbed “safety tip for storing jelwery re-use of safe box .” Jah Cure refused to yeild to the advise given . Rather he assumably left his room headed strait way to the WCMF arena where he performed during the time he claimed 7:44 his rolex and chain were stolen .
D/cans have you ever questioned why he never mentioned the time he returned ? DNO which is becomed popular needs to improve upon their collection of reports so they too can be concise with editing what we read lest we all pass as holligans not properly informed . He returned to his room knew watch was not there and chain too , jumped to conclusion theft , because some of us make pple out there believe D/ca is law-less and crime out of order , so they come to do just that make us notorious criminals and out of order .
aye lemme tell u na…jah cure have issues u kno lol mister not well in his head….but still..Blame Bruce!
Lucy shut ur dutty quatta doh call skerrit name in ur mouth! i hate when ppl just callin up d man name for no bloody reason…wat d hell a fake “invisible’ rolex watch have to do with skerrit..stupess…jah cure well bien merci as u see him dere..but sighh i guess we hv to endure another two weeks of unnecessary complains and whining and crying from the idle citizens of this country…oh yeh i forgot politics
yah if it was urs…(to all those talking rubbish) u check into a hotel, turn ur bk 4 a few hours, find out u missing stuff ..u wud blame urself…..humph some ppl jus doh make sense boy…money jah cure doh hv so
According to anonymous , i think i getting somewhere and i think the next thing is , 7:44 Cure performing , watching being stolen by _____ ? He returns claimin rolex and chain stolen at 7:44 by FYH staff _____? hmmmmmm !!!!!!!! Cure , i tink our pple was dumb , doe test D/ca , that’s why it no have much criminals like J/Ca . How you know is 7:44 you was performing wee?
Wow thats messed up….thats a shame….
@JAH CURE LYING…: what so there never be a theif in dominica man, cos i no plenty, that would rob you for de clothes on ya line let alone an exspensive item, so YOU need to get out more and see de world not rose coloured man, and dominicans too can be corrupt and criminal, just look at de goverment, cant get more corrupt than that.
I’ve listened and also read the Cure’s grief over his what he considers to be “theft ” in a hotel room which he stayed in at FYH . According to Mr . Cure his watch was stolen at *7:44 in the said room , * whilst he was performing * at WCMF . Two things to pick up from his statement , take some time to absorb these statments carefully as spectating P. I ( s ) .
Questions to be asked and answered
1 . Mr Cure is a well known and an international reggae artist and from what I’ve heard performed beyond expectation . What time did you leave your room Mr . Cure ?
2 . It’s possible in times like this Mr . Cure with your adrenalins speeding up Mr . Cure , anyone can forget their doors opened and haste to the arena . Having these expensive jewelries , with the options of securing jewlry given to you by the Management of the FYH , why didn’t you take advantage of it , and further , why did you even think it was better to leave it in your room , considering your person internationally ?
3 . Mr . Cure , did someone from FYH , call you to inform at 7:44 that your room was burglarized and your Rolex and chain were both stolen ?
4 . At 7:44 Mr . Cure , you said that a staff of FYH , who had a masters key entered your room and according to you took your Rolex watch and chain . Was there anyone in your room with you before you left for WCMF performance and after you left Mr . Cure ?
5 . What time did you return to your room Mr . Cure ? When you got back to your room what was the first thing you did ? Was there anyone in your room with you at that time ? When did you suspect your watch and chain stolen ? What made you conclude or alledge that it was an act of theft from staff at FYH ?
6 . What time did you end your performance ? Were accompanied to your room by anyone besides yourself ( ie , security of FYH , staff , friends or women as appetizers ) ?
i see every one blaming the cure to me once u pay for room it is yours its just like if u renting
u tell me its ok for the landlord to come in and take your stuff what if that same person went in and
killed him wat wld we be saying now its his fault he shld put his self in his safe to we just uppolling
these people who did this by saying he shld use the safe.
That is really a suspect story. As a Jamiacan – from the land of voleur – he would know the importance of securing his belongings.
Dominicans we must learn not to wash too much dirty linen in public. Not that we would encourage any thief if there was one, but in this case I would err on the side of innocent until proven guilty.
Shame on Fort Young Hotel. They should pay the man.
That’s a shame yow… Cuz the dude isn’t a local artist so again, it’s another stain on our name
as Dominicans. It’s just a bad reflection don’t matter how the situation is taken. As for the FHM they should step their game up it’s 2010.
I honestly do not belive that Jah Cure would leave such valuables out in the open at a hotel. Ordinary people do not leave their money or valuables in hotel room much for these items that are expensive. I honetly belive that he is LYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@sue: JAH CURE THAT IS THE ROBBER,,,!!! HOW U SO SURE HE WAS EVEN ROB…WHERE THE PROOF…A MISSING JEWELRY…THAT IS IF HE EVER CAME DOWN WITH A JEWELRY OF THAT VALUE…OUR LIL D/A DOING GOOD IN THIS SHITTY ECONOMY…HE WANNA GET A PIECE…U’LL GO BAD TO JAMAICA WITHOUT OUR MONEY….DON’T GIVE HIM..
@Observer: i agree with u fully!!! he is a dirty lair,,,if the others want to kiss his butt they can do it but that have corruption in it…
Seems like Fort Young Hotel (FYH) failed to realize that he wasn’t some ordinary guest but rather an international artiste. They should have mechanism in place to protect such a guest. So you mean to tell me, besides his personal bodyguard(s), FYH didn’t provide any additional security for the guy?!?!?! Such a shame! So there wasn’t any surveillance cameras in the hallway leading up to the Deluxe Oceanfront Rooms? Why were they so quick to defend themselves instead of being neutral about the situation until it was rectified.
I’m sure the lack of security bodies and/or surveillance cameras don’t go accordance with international standards!!!!!!
@lucy: LUCY…SHUT UP UR NEGATIVE TALK…DOMINICA NOT HEAVEN!!! U NEED TO GET OUT MORE….
COME ON PEOPLE…THAT NOT MAKING SENSE…THE BOY WANT A MONEY…WHO U ALL THINK THAT THERE JESUS CHRIST!! NO HE JUST LIKE U AND ME….HE CORRUPT… HE LYING…IF I BRING SUCH “””””EXPENSIVE””””” VALUABLES DOWN WHY WOULD I NOT WEAR IT FOR MY BIGGEST EVEN ON THAT SAID TRIP!! AND LEAVE IT IN MY BAG WITH NO LOCK!!! U ALL HAVE A BB PHONE AND IT JUST WORTH $1000.00 OR LESS AND U ALL SECURING WHY JAH CURE DIDN’T SECURE HIS PRECIOUS JEWELRY!!! STOP RAISING HANDS AT UR PEOPLE AND KISSING THE .. OF STRANGERS SO QUICK!!!
sorry but some blame have to go on the hotel
clients have to be safe when money is being spent in a place what if he was a sleep and someone came up with a gun to rob him hotel have to take some blame i bet it is not the frist time that happened there shame
if the room door had been forced or left open i would exspect the hotel to put the blame on jah cure and his people, but come on mr nasiff, some one took the master key and let themselves in…..
when people from de out side world see this in the news, they will think twice about coming to dominica, look destiny going tomorrow,airlines stop flying from canefield, we are going to scare away any of the last tourist with nonsense like this, if an artist who is preforming in our country, and staying in the supposed best hotel in dominica, what chance has some poor tourist??????
lets ask Mrs Pestaina and the DPP, what would have happened if this had been de Garraway hotel? prehaps we should watch skerritts arm to see if he suddenly wearing a rolex, well mr nasiff do owe skerritt, prehaps the man broke now no tourist are cominig!!!!!
cure room is his…. even if he had left all his stuff on his bed, no on should take it out from there.. i work at a hotel and when items r found on property we turn them in to our lost and found manager.. bad name for fort young, d a so called num. 1 hotel… ppl work 4 wat all u want or need.. i hope d pc’s get d person or ppl who did that.
And i agree fully with the hotel. He should have known better.
it is not his first time in a hotel….tell him try that story in another country not in da…..look out that watch and chain will appear with it owner in another locations….
Jah Cure damn lie, some insurance fraud he on. Don’t give dca no damn bad name.
Karma for not allowing broadcast his performance on radio I guess……
that is true but still that should not happen
why would some body do that s are shame i would be happy if they find it because thats are bad name for de hotel
Jah Cure should have used the safe in his room
