Al­though the Pre­ven­tive De­ten­tion Or­ders (PDOs) for busi­ness­man Do­minic Hadeed and his wife Genevieve are yet to be gazetted, in­for­ma­tion con­tin­ues to emerge on the con­tribut­ing fac­tors that led to their ar­rest.

One of the al­le­ga­tions in the PDOs is that a con­ver­sa­tion fol­low­ing the re­cent de­bate on the ex­ten­sion of the State of Emer­gency sparked a con­ver­sa­tion which put the Hadeeds on the T&T Po­lice Ser­vice’s (TTPS) radar.

The in­for­ma­tion is con­tained in an af­fi­davit filed by at­tor­ney Ram­dath Phillip, of the TTPS, on be­half of act­ing Per­ma­nent Sec­re­tary in the Min­istry of Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty, Videsh Ma­haraj, in the mat­ter now be­fore Jus­tice Frank Seep­er­sad, where the Hadeeds are chal­leng­ing their de­ten­tions.
