A High Court judge has cautioned members of the protective services to be mindful of their language and conduct while executing their duties.

Justice Frank Seepersad gave the advice after ruling in favour of a Chaguanas woman who endured degrading treatment during a 2011 state of emergency (SoE) raid.

Seepersad awarded Sujes McIntosh $60,000 plus interest for assault, battery and false imprisonment after she and six others were subjected to mistreatment by soldiers and Coast Guard officers during a raid at Gaspar Grande on August 31, 2011.
