I was reliably informed that eight brothers and sisters have been arrested and are being held at both the Arima and La Horquetta Police Station. I called the Arima Police and It was confirmed that 7 brothers and 2 sisters were held on enquiries... I enquired about their status and was told they are being kept in separate cells except the sisters who are being held together in one cell. They were all given dinner.
The exercise was carried out by the La Horquetta Task Force; Sgt. Waldorf. Three of the brothers were taken to La Horquetta and the rest including the sisters are being held in Arima....
I sent a message to both the top CoP and Minister Gary Griffith to Please ensure that justice and fairness is observed in this matter and that full respect be given to these brothers and sisters... Especially the Sisters and to recognize that this is the holy month of Ramadaan and that the Eid celebrations is just next week and that considerations must be given to their religious rights; as regards the prayer and the fast...
An Attorney-at-Law will be looking into the matter. Insha Allah...
