Two pro­test­ers and a so­cial me­dia per­son­al­i­ty, who were ar­rest­ed by po­lice on Wednes­day dur­ing a demon­stra­tion near the of­fice of the Di­rec­tor of Pub­lic Pros­e­cu­tions (DPP), were re­leased on own bail last night, af­ter be­ing charged in con­nec­tion with their con­duct dur­ing the ac­tiv­i­ty.

Guardian Me­dia was, how­ev­er, un­able to con­firm the charges laid against the ac­cused or the amount of the bail via po­lice sources last night.

Alyssa Phillip and her moth­er Camille Cares­quero were ar­rest­ed as they staged a demon­stra­tion out­side the Sa­cred Heart RC Church, walk­ing dis­tance away from the DPP’s of­fice on Rich­mond Street, Port-of-Spain.
