At­tor­ney Gen­er­al John Je­re­mie has apol­o­gised to firearms deal­er Brent Thomas for his or­deal af­ter his con­tro­ver­sial ar­rest and re­turn to T&T from Bar­ba­dos in Oc­to­ber 2022.

The At­tor­ney Gen­er­al dis­con­tin­ued the State’s ap­peal against the High Court’s de­ci­sion in Thomas’s le­gal mat­ter, paving the way for ne­go­ti­a­tions for a set­tle­ment that will like­ly be in the mil­lions.

The amount is yet to be de­ter­mined and will come fol­low­ing an as­sess­ment of com­pen­sa­tion.
