Jamaican Author

A chartered flight from Dubai with several Indian passengers was sent back from Jamaican capital Kingston as local authorities were not satisfied with documentation of the passengers.

Booker Prize winning Jamaican author Marlon James received some rave reviews on Twitter for his session at the Jaiput lit fest today with British author Patrick French. But earlier, in a post on Facebook, he ranted about the problems he encountered upon landing in Delhi.

Marlon James made literary history by becoming the first Jamaican author to win the prestigious 2015 Man Booker Prize for Fiction for his book 'A Brief History of Seven Killings'.

The visit comes after reports that Jamaica's athletes could face an Olympic ban if Jamaican anti-doping authorities were found to be non-compliant with the World Anti-Doping Code.

FIFA banned senior Caribbean official Horace Burrell for six months on Friday for the Jamaican's part in a bribery case involving former FIFA presidential candidate Mohamed bin Hammam, plunging the region's soccer authorities deeper into chaos.
