The State has been ordered to pay almost $100,000 in compensation to a construction worker who was wrongfully arrested and detained for allegedly attempting to sell equipment stolen from his employer.
High Court Judge Robin Mohammed ordered the compensation for Gershon Seunarine as he upheld his wrongful arrest and false imprisonment case last Friday.
The lawsuit stemmed from Seunarine's arrest in March 2018.
