Media Release: Re: Newsday Article; Venezuelans - TT Prisoner Swap. Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) is deeply concerned over what appears to be a brutal and nasty game of political corruption at its highest level. Referring to an article that appeared in todays Newsday entitled Venezuelans - TT Prisoner Swap?. Waajihatul Islaamiyyah (The Islamic Front) is calling on the government of Trinidad and Tobago to come clean with respect to these allegations. Our nationals are not even criminals! They have not yet been charged and further to this has no prior convictions nor criminal records; they are not prisoners they were simply detained and still are; today being a total of 103 days. In considering the responses of the Foreign Minister; Hon. Winston Dookaran, National Security Minister; Hon. Gary Griffith and Trinidad and Tobago Ambassador in Caracas Mr. Odell Barman it is absolutely clear these allegations are proving to be true. What other reasons could there be? In light of the fact that no evidence has since been brought against these men. Not Withstanding the damning information provided by Rear Admiral Kelshal we have information that on the 45th day of the detention another bit of damning information was sent to the Venezuelan Authorities indicating that the men had prior terrorism convictions, it was at this time upon request we provided Certificates of Character and recommendations for all five nationals; again proving the Trinidad and Tobago government wrong... When other countries; America and Canada were getting their citizens out of Venezuela on the 45th day, the Trinidad and Tobago government were further trying to sink our nationals. A letter was already sent to the Prime Minister asking her intervention, therefore we are again calling on the government of Trinidad and Tobago in particular the Prime Minister; Hon. Kamla Persad Bissessar to provide full disclosure of all attempts made thus far in the release of or rather the implicating of our nationals there in Venezuela and to answer two very simple question; do you care? and if you do, what do you intend to do about it?
