Oropouche East MP and shadow minister of National Security Dr. Roodal Moonilal wants answers on the disappearance of 25,000 rounds of ammunition from the Regiment (TTR), calling the situation a glaring example of national security mismanagement under Minister Fitzgerald Hinds.

In a strongly-worded statement, Moonilal said he initially dismissed the story as fake until he read an official "special orders" memorandum from the commanding officer of the Regiment.

He said this exposed the minister’s incompetence but also reflected poorly on the Prime Minister, who chairs the National Security Council.
