A prison superintendent detained under the state of emergency has filed for a review of his preventive detention order, disputing the allegations of gang involvement made against him.

The officer, represented by attorney Krystal Primus, submitted a request for review before the Review Tribunal in a letter dated August 22. The tribunal’s secretary has since acknowledged receipt of the application. However, no disclosure has yet been provided by the Minister of Homeland Security, and no date for the hearing has been scheduled.

The detention order, issued on August 18, alleges that the officer had been credibly identified as an associate of the Radical Islamic Criminal Gang and other criminal groups. It further claims that he provided support to incarcerated gang leaders, facilitated breaches of prison security, and enabled communication and gang activity from inside detention facilities. Authorities alleged that he posed “a serious threat to public safety” by assisting in planned violent activities, including the imminent targeting of public officials.
