PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar and the Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro are being asked for details from the government about the series of US military strikes in the Caribbean that reportedly killed more than 60 people, including two Trinidadian nationals.

On November 4, blogger and social activist Vishal Persad filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. His request was addressed to the prime minister, the commissioner and Foreign and Caricom Affairs Minister Sean Sobers.

Persad, through his attorneys Keron Ramkhalwhan and Anwar Hosein, is demanding the release of reports, meeting records, and legal opinions relating to the strikes, which began September 2 under orders from US President Donald Trump.
