A Jamaican court of appeal ordered the release of dancehall star Vybz Kartel, who was serving a life sentence for a 2011 murder, after the UK-based Privy Council overturned his conviction due to juror misconduct. The court determined that a new trial was not necessary, citing the interests of justice.
