SUSPECTED gang leader and murder accused Rajaee Ali has asked the High Court to review his transfer from the Maximum Security Prison, Arouca, to Teteron Army Base in Chaguaramas. His application says the move, ordered on July 18 by the Commissioner of Prisons, was unlawful and that his detention conditions breach the Prison Rules.
Ali is seeking a court order to cancel the transfer and return him to a facility for first-division prisoners. He also wants a ruling that his rights under Section 4(b) of the Constitution were violated. He plans to add the attorney general to the case and is seeking damages, including vindicatory damages.
Ali is one of the high-risk prisoners who was confined at Building 13 of the Maximum Security Prison.
