The Police are seeking the public's assistance to locate a woman they believe can assist with information relating to the death of eight-year-old Danielle Rowe.
An image of the woman was developed using an Electronic Facial Identification technique.
The brutal nature of the little girl's murder — abducted after leaving Braeton Primary and Infant School in Portmore, St Catherine, last Thursday afternoon, her throat slashed before being thrown out of a motor vehicle on Roosevelt Avenue in St Andrew, more than 13 miles away — triggered national outrage.
On Monday afternoon, the police confirmed that they are seeking a woman seen on closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage with Danielle on Roosevelt Avenue.
During morning devotion at the school on Monday, head of the St Catherine South Police Division, Senior Superintendent Christopher Phillips, shared with teachers, parents, Education Minister Fayval Williams, and students a conversation he had with Danielle's mother, Sudiene Mason, early last Saturday morning after the child succumbed to her injuries at hospital where she had been taken by a soldier who found her on the street.
Minister of Education and Youth Fayval Williams said Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are to be installed at the entrances of primary schools.
Williams added that it is part of the Ministry’s efforts to strengthen safety and security measures at these institutions.
