The Trinidad and Tobago Regiment says there are safeguards in place to keep its ammunition from falling into the hands of criminal elements.
This comes after regiment shells were found by police on at least three crime scenes for the month of December so far.
In a release, the regiment said it was aware of "ammunition bearing markings similar to the ammunition authorised for Regiment use only." It says it will work tirelessly with the TTPS to get to find the culprits.
The Regiment says it intends to continue to provide full cooperation "into the verification and investigation of this serious matter."
Based on the outcome of the review, the Regiment says "necessary military disciplinary actions will be instituted to address any contraventions of criminal law."
