Re: Behaviour of Our State Agencies
Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) is
calling on the government of Trinidad and Tobago to put a leash on its agencies
and their members when it comes to treating with the issues of its people, especially
when matters are of a sensitive nature.
Just yesterday Police Officers of the Besson
Street Police Station raided and desecrated Masjid ul Furqaan of John-John
Lavantille and the Imam; Atiba Seargant (Abdul Haqq) was arrested and charged
in what appears to be a case of religious persecution and sacrilegious.
Recently he was detained and questioned at length regarding what measures he
has taken to curb crime in his community. (See Photos Attached of
Masjid After Police Left)
Just a couple days ago January 11th
Police armed with guns and wearing bulletproof vests barged into the office of
Sacha Singh; managing director of Amsure Trinidad and Tobago Ltd and demanded
money by menace; treating to arrest if the worker did not comply. Since when
can the TTPS assume the role of the Labour Board and a Magistrate or Judge?
The 182 names which are now under the radar who
according to the FIU have engaged in suspicious transactions and are funding
terrorism abroad and as a result of which Inshan Ishmael is now been
investigated for raising funds for the same purpose.
The interfering of religious laws by increasing
the marital age to 18 years. I must warn if this legislation is passed in the
upper and lower house and made law there is going to be a negative spiral
effect.
The refusal to allow the re-entry of our eight
nationals mostly woman and children who have been detained in Turkey since the
end of last year even though it has been expressed by the Turkish government
their willingness to repatriate our citizens.
Must I remind this government we are a democracy
and not a dictating police state. People have rights and privileges in this
country as enshrined in our Constitution. The only reason why people don’t
fight back is because they are poor and have no money to pay the exorbitant
fees some lawyers charge. If the government and its state agencies continue to
function with this megalomaniac type behaviour our democracy would pay a heavy
price.
