Several trade union leaders are condemning Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro’s recent move to designate 15 “no-protest zones” across Trinidad and Tobago, describing the measure as a dangerous threat to democracy and constitutional freedoms.
Under Legal Notice No 40 of 2026, issued even as the State of Emergency (SoE) continues, Guevarro has prohibited public protests and demonstrations within 500 metres of several key state institutions and sensitive facilities.
The restricted areas include the Parliament and Parliamentary Complex, the Office of the President, the Office of the Prime Minister, the Diplomatic Centre, the Office of the Attorney General, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Homeland Security.
