“THIS puts a target on our backs!”

That was the reaction of a Westmoorings resident yesterday to Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s warning on Sunday that she intends to go after “filthy, greedy” gangs operating out of Westmoorings, St Clair and Federation Park.

She said these gangs were flooding Trinidad and Tobago with illegal drugs and guns.
