The Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS) has con­firmed that a planned protest sched­uled for to­day out­side the of­fice of the Di­rec­tor of Pub­lic Pros­e­cu­tions (DPP) in sup­port of Ka­ia Sealy has not been au­tho­rised.

Hous­ing Min­is­ter and Ca­roni Cen­tral Mem­ber of Par­lia­ment David Lee is urg­ing so­cial me­dia com­men­ta­tors to avoid mak­ing prej­u­di­cial re­marks when dis­cussing trag­ic in­ci­dents in­volv­ing in­di­vid­u­als.

A po­lice of­fi­cer was charged with in­de­cent as­sault af­ter al­leged­ly kiss­ing an­oth­er of­fi­cer on her lips with­out her con­sent.

Pres­i­dent of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Uni­fied Teach­ers’ As­so­ci­a­tion (TTUTA), Crys­tal Ashe, says while trade unions will al­ways seek the best pos­si­ble set­tle­ment for work­ers, a “rea­son­able so­lu­tion” must be reached in the on­go­ing im­passe be­tween the Pub­lic Ser­vices As­so­ci­a­tion (PSA) and the Chief Per­son­nel Of­fi­cer (CPO) over out­stand­ing pub­lic sec­tor ar­rears.
