A justice rally is set to take place in Antigua on Wednesday, September 18, in honor of 18-year-old Khaleel Simon, who was recently killed in Liberta. The rally will begin at 3 p.m. at the Antigua Recreation Grounds and proceed to the High Court building.

Family members, friends, and community groups are calling for swift justice and accountability in the case. They also want to raise awareness about the rising violence affecting young people on the island. Organizers are urging participants to wear white as a symbol of peace and unity.

The rally reflects the community’s grief and frustration while highlighting demands for stronger measures to tackle violent crime. Supporters emphasize that Khaleel’s death is not just a family tragedy but a call for collective action to protect Antigua and Barbuda’s youth.
