Citizens Against Noise Pollution Trinidad and Tobago (CANPTT) has accused law enforcement authorities of failing to uphold the law following widespread reports of illegal fireworks activity on Old Year’s Night.
The group said it received numerous complaints from communities across the country, indicating that fireworks were discharged well outside legally permitted hours, with little or no intervention by authorities.
Loud music reportedly continued into the early hours, adding to residents’ distress.
