Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar yesterday criticised protesters, saying she had no time for “victim gimmickry”.

She criticised those who turned out in Port of Spain to protest the police issuing warrants for the arrest of Kaia Sealy, describing their actions as “publicity farming” and an attempt to provoke the police.

She asked where the protesters were when more than 5,000 people had been murdered over the past decade by criminal elements.
