Defence Minister Wayne Sturge invoked the 2014 murder of Senior Counsel Dana Seetahal during debate on the extension of the State of Emergency, arguing that authorities failed to act decisively despite intelligence suggesting her life was under threat.
Speaking in the Parliament of Trinidad and Tobago on Friday, Sturge claimed law enforcement at the time relied on surveillance rather than taking preventative action.
“Dana Seetahal also knew she was going to get killed,” Sturge said. “They listened and they listened and they listened, and now she’s not here.”
