Ka­ia Sealy is not a fugi­tive and is will­ing to sur­ren­der her­self to lo­cal au­thor­i­ties as soon as she is med­ical­ly cleared to trav­el back from the Unit­ed States.

This as­sur­ance comes from her at­tor­neys, Fay­ola Sandy and Lar­ry Williams, who said yes­ter­day that she has been and will con­tin­ue to co­op­er­ate with po­lice in­ves­ti­ga­tors prob­ing the in­ci­dent sur­round­ing the po­lice-in­volved in­ci­dent, in which she and her com­mon-law hus­band Joshua Sama­roo were shot in Jan­u­ary.

Speak­ing with Guardian Me­dia in New­town, Port-of-Spain, Sandy stressed that Sealy has nev­er evad­ed the T&T Po­lice Ser­vice mem­bers prob­ing the mat­ter. How­ev­er, she said Sealy needs time to com­plete the med­ical mat­ters she went to the US to deal with.
