One hundred and eighty-six gangs—with an estimated 1,750 members—are operating in Trinidad and Tobago, a June 2026 report prepared by the United Kingdom Home Office has said.
The Country Policy and Information Note (CPIN), which examines gangs and organised crime in Trinidad and Tobago, states gangs were linked to 43.7% of murders in 2024 and about one-third of murders in 2025.
The report was published earlier this month and is intended to provide country information for immigration and asylum decision-making by UK authorities.
