POLITICAL analyst Dr Bishnu Ragoonath expects the Government to explain more fully the details of the state of emergency (SoE) which was declared on July 18 in a notice by President Christine Kangaloo, issued under the TT Constitution (section 8).

The SoE declaration came after an earlier police statement alleging that an amalgamation of criminal gangs had compiled a hit-list of certain public officials.

Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro then held a news briefing, after which Attorney General John Jeremie also addressed reporters.
