Re: Murder of Senior Counsel Dana Seetahal

Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) strongly condemns the assassination of Senior Counsel Dana Seetahal. This act not only speaks to the gross incompetence of our protective services but also more importantly to the lack of political will by this PP administration to address the disintegration of the social and moral fabric our society.

We want to caution the police in their investigation of this murder and to warn them against chasing red herrings. We are very much concerned that they are pursuing innocent individuals and would subsequently arrest innocent persons for that murder as they have done in the past. 

The information which they claim to have on the Carapo man is faulty and misleading.

Are these the same police who could not have detected a dead child in a barrel after spending 7 hours in the same  room where the said barrel was? Are these the same police who after a conviction of five persons in the 700 million drug fine on Monos Island still can't tell us who owned the drugs? What about the murder of Ramishchand's daughter? What about Akeel Chambers? What about the eight year old found murdered in the drain; where an innocent police officer was held and won his case? The real murderer still walks free!  At the time the Prime Minister vowed the murderer will be held and brought to justice. What about the drugs in the container of chicken? And just in recent times the coke in juice cans? The Debideen murder in Grand Bazaar? The examples are too numerous to contemplate.

Are these the same police who are telling us today that they have a suspect? Informing us that someone in prison called the shot? Well tell us too what was the motivate; informing us that calls were intercepted; well then you did know the SC's life was threatened; why didn't you protect her.

If the police and this government do not want a scandal on their hands they better know what they doing; I have already passed on certain information to the authorities; the ball is in their court.

MEDIA RELEASE: Regarding the Performance of the Peoples Partnership Administration

MEDIA RELEASE:

Regarding the Performance of the Peoples Partnership Administration

With reference to our letter to Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar dated 10^th June 2010 Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) as promised has been monitoring the People’s Partnership Government in light of their promises made to the people of this nation; We have demanded that these promises made by the New People’s Partnership Government, be fulfilled in the time set out in their Manifesto. We had indicated that Failure to do so will be met with stiff resistance. Having said that, we will also have looked very closely at their policies as it relates to the following:

·         Gay Rights and Abortion.

·         Illegal Immigrants (Undocumented Immigrants), Human Rights and Prison Reform.

·         Sustainable development, agriculture and  the Preservation of the Environment and ecosystems.

·         Accessing Information and Education reform that will balance the scale of intellectual perception.

·         Public consultation and participation.

·         Health and safety.

·         Crime and Socioeconomic ills.

·         Emergency and disaster relief.

·         The continued granting of license to sell spirituous liquors.

·         Interest Free Housing and Medical care for Muslims especially Muslim Sisters.

·         Islamic Banking and the Setting up of an Islamic Court.

·         Facilitating Muslims want to perform Hajj by forging new diplomatic and travel relations with the Saudi Government.

·         The God given right of every citizen to bear arms to defend themselves.

Instead of addressing these important issues we were served amongst other things the following on a silver platter.  

·         The forging of ties between Caribbean Airlines and air India

·         The Sordid Reshmi affair

·         The questionable sacking of Mary King

·         The Uncalculated risk in implementing the SOE with the intent to hold and detain 19 of our Muslim Brothers; an incident we don’t intend to forget…

·         The extradition fiasco of Steve Ferguson and Ishwar Galbaransingh

·         The raising of the legal marriage age of 14 years to 18 years

·         The COP/UNC fallout

·         MSJ’s decision to withdraw itself from the Peoples Partnership.

·         The recent reshuffle and creation of new ministries and portfolios at the expense of taxpayers.

·         The demoting of five Africans within the party which we see as an effort to further silence them.

·         And with regards to the Jack Warner corruption affair would it now be easy for him to influence and determine the outcome of his investigation?

It’s obviously clear that this country is being run on the feelings of an emotional self-centered arrogant woman on the road to self destruct with a vision to annihilate the masses. This administration is obviously getting the wrong advice from the wrong people. We therefore instruct that the government seeks council in this regard and to have a dialog with us to ensure a safe journey to the end of their term in office. We warn of an Islamic Element in this country that we consider a sleeping giant and we cannot guarantee a safe ride home. We are calling on the Peoples Partnership to pay attention to the voices of the people, the cries of the oppressed and the faint murmur of the human souls leaving the slaughtered.  

PAY ATTENTION!

STAY FOCUS!

BE HUMAN!

And we in-turn will guarantee you a smooth ride to the finish.

Is this An Eccentric State of Emergency?

Is this An Eccentric State of Emergency?

By Umar Abdullah

A burning question as to who stands to benefit; the Government or the people?

Think of the people in this Twin Island State as meat in a pressure pot being cooked for the capitalist masters; with the pressure pot representing the Government. If the mechanism in the pressure pot (Government) to contain the meat (the people) is not functioning and working properly; what you will find is that the meat (the people) will explode creating a big mess; destroying the pressure pot (Government) in the process.

It is an undisputed fact that murders have been rampant in this twin Island state but isn’t oppression worst than slaughter? Isn’t crime a direct result of poverty, unfair and unjust treatment and undue pressure on the working class?

There is no crime worst than the hungry bellies of our children.

There is no crime worst than the empty book bags of our youths.

There is no crime worst than the fear and the uncertainty the future holds for our fellow men.

This oppression includes psychological trauma, and mental illness, it includes preventing access to basic living amenities, denying rights and fair play, preventing access to the freedoms we were once accustomed to, and burdening us with a high cost of living and unemployment. In all of these instances this oppressive PP Government is denying access, and driving the people out of places where they have a right to be. All this is being imposed on us, through what is obviously a systemic method of  mass torture in getting rid of  and downplaying those individuals who would stand up for their rights with impunity right before the eyes of the international community, and also the international rights organisations, and the supposedly civilized world, that has caused this Peoples Partnership to be among the most hated and distrusted Government in the history of Trinidad and Tobago, and its ministers most despised.

To prevent access to justice and fairness is punishing than slaughter. Such prevention of access can perhaps be explained as creating an environment that is not conducive to education, or the practice of right conduct. This could be something as simple as making it impossible for a person to survive without committing acts like stealing, selling drugs, or prostitution, etc. And /or it could be as complex as creating such material, psychological and spiritual hardships that a previously law abiding people begin to question goodness, their sense of belonging, and their right to exist, which could be explained as tests beyond what the people can bear.

From all this it is clear that the PP Government had no intentions of protecting the citizenry of this twin State but rather to protect their seat of power. Having considered the pending treat of the trade unions, the uprising in the middle east and most recently the riots in England; they were not willing to take that chance, so by implementing the State of Emergency they would give unto themselves all the power taken away from the people leaving them helpless and void of all rights and privileges; oppressing them even more.

This oppressive Government, whether obvious to the people, is to cause law abiding persons to abandon their patriotism, in allowing themselves to be governed, by civil disobedience and the commission of crimes to sustain and protect their own. This as they see it is what is best in this life.

It is hard to see and read that everyday this PP Government is violating the rights of poor people treating them as sub humans, without souls with more detentions, while refusing to address their social ills and their brutal and illegal economic hardships as what took place with Clico and the Hindu Credit Union. It seems that this PP Government is persistent in its disregard to Human Rights, Justice and Fairness.

What is not so obvious is the fact that the State of Emergency is also destroying this twin Island state. It’s citizens, who include Indians as well as Muslims, Christians, Africans, Syrians and others, separate from the political oligarchy, are equally victims of the Capitalist fanaticism and racism that is threatening our entire Twin State.

Where was the state of emergency when food prices soared; when mothers could not have brought milk for their babies?

Where the state of emergency when poor people was was turned away from the hospitals; when people were dying on the corridors of the hospitals?

Where was the state of emergency when helpless people were marooned in their homes due to flooding; when they had nowhere to go after losing everything?

Our goal is not only saving the innocent from this wicked and oppressive PP Government, but we must also seek to save them. We all must support this idea recognizing and opposing the serious danger of the oppression that inflicts suffering not only upon the innocent, but also on the oppressors and perpetrators of violence and crime. 

We should be sincere in our intent and purpose and put a stop once and for all to the cunning and oppression of this oppressive PP Government if we are to change our future for a better life.
