PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Pressure mounted on Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar Wednesday to dismiss her National Security Minister Austin “Jack” Warner over the existence of “an illegal Flying Squad” operating in Trinidad and Tobago. Former attorney general Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj, in a radio broadcast, disputed statements by Prime Minister Persad Bissessar that she did not know of the existence of the squad questioning whether as chairman of the National Security Council (NSC) she wanted the country to believe that the “illegal Flying Squad” was operating without the knowledge of law enforcement authorities. “Is she really telling us that as head of the Security Council she knew nothing about it,” Maharaj asked in his statement, adding “this is a blatant untruth.”
