Unruly ISIS, Rasta City gangsters held

The exercise began at 8 pm on Wednesday and ended at midday yesterday. The Rasta City gang member was held with a quantity of marijuana while the Unruly ISIS members were found with ammunition and drugs. Police also searched several houses for a drone which was being used by a member of the Unruly ISIS to spy on police.

Police said they intend to find this drone so they can examine footage captured while the drone was in use. Also during the protest, officers went to the scene of a fiery protest mainly by women in Longdenville on Wednesday evening.

The women were protesting the arrest of a male relative of murdered businessman and reputed crime lord Selwyn “Robocop” Alexis. During a search of the area where the women were protesting officers found a pistol and several rounds of ammunition buried in a heap of gravel at the side of the road. No arrest was made.

Yesterday, ACP (Central) Surujdean Persad said that similar exercises in Central Trinidad will be carried out in the coming days. Up to press time, the gang members were still in custody assisting lawmen in several investigations.
