Jamaican businessman in T&T kidnapped

Ransom demanded - business partner held by police.

Damn!

POLICE from the Anti Kidnapping Unit and Southern Division have launched a manhunt after a Jamaican businessman was kidnapped on Sunday by gunmen dressed in police clothing.

Up to today, the whereabouts of Yohan Chin who lives at Monica Drive, Block Four in Palmiste, remain unknown. Police have detained one of Chin’s business partners, a 36-year-old pharmacy owner, in connection with the incident.

Police said Chin contacted the partner asking for $6 million from the sale of a parcel of land in Chaguanas intended for a business. The victim is also said to have asked for $400,000 and while no reason was given for the money, police said both requests may be ransom demands.

The report said at about 6.30 pm yesterday, the partner reported the incident to San Fernando CID. He said on Sunday shortly after 5 am, he first received a call from Chin who is in his 30s.

Sarge as a man from the disciplined forces do you think the fellows in T&T would allow civilians to participate in the kidnapping business?

A recent bill was passed that allows the state to investigate wealth that is inconsistent with a person's occupation.

This case is curious- the reported wealth of the victim versus his occupation.

Drug link in Jamaican’s kidnapping

The well-or­ches­trat­ed kid­nap­ping of Ja­maican busi­ness­man Yohan Chin is be­lieved to be linked to the nar­cot­ic em­pires of slain Cen­tral busi­ness­man Shel­don Sukhdeo and an­oth­er busi­ness­man in South Trinidad who sells lux­u­ry ve­hi­cles.

Some of these ve­hi­cles are be­lieved to have been used to bring co­caine in­to T&T from Venezuela.

Sukhdeo, who was kid­napped and then found dead in Las Lo­mas last Jan­u­ary, was the broth­er of slain Cen­tral car deal­er Sheron Sukhdeo, known in the crim­i­nal un­der­world as World Boss. Sheron was killed on March 26 last year and fol­low­ing his mur­der over a dozen peo­ple were marked for death, forc­ing res­i­dents to live un­der a self-im­posed cur­few.

Sukhdeo’s wife Rachael went in­to hid­ing with her chil­dren. Her broth­er Phillip Bas­sant was lat­er killed, along with close friend Joshua Plaza and her dri­ver and con­fi­dante Ker­win Beck­les, all with­in the space of six weeks.

Chin is still miss­ing and po­lice sources said yes­ter­day they were now pur­su­ing in­for­ma­tion that the kid­nap­ping was or­ches­trat­ed by the drug king­pins who are pos­ing as le­git­i­mate lux­u­ry car deal­ers.

Update
A week later, kidnapped businessman still missing

KIDNAPPERS pretending to be ­police officers snatched a San Fernando businessman two Sundays ago, and have ­demanded a ransom of US$6 million for his return.

Yohan Chin was kidnapped from his home at Monica Drive, Palmiste.

Chin’s business partner and neighbour, a 36-year-old man, reported the kidnapping to police two days after it occurred.

He said Chin had instructed him not to go to the police.

The man has since been detained by police.

Police Busy

In a post on his Facebook page today, the Spiritual Head of the Satya Anand Ashram Temple of Truth and Bliss in Aranguez, sought to support his claim by referring to yesterday’s raid in Gulf View, La Romaine by Special Operations Response Team police.

"The raids at seven homes in Gulf View of only Indian business members is glaring and worrisome. The police traumatised the entire community as they raided the homes without warrants and in a hostile and aggressive manner."

He accused police of kicking down front doors, ransacking homes, traumatising residents and causing the elderly to fall ill. The police have also been accused of preventing homeowners from entering their premises and causing "general embarrassment of a decent community."

"We note there have been no similar police raids in the communities of the one per cent in Westmoorings or Glencoe where there have been allegations for years regarding the drug trade in TT.”

They weren't only East Indians,in fact the biggest and first Home to be raided was Simon Alexander owner of Industrial Supply Ltd,the others only came to soften the blow on Mr. Alexander and make it look like he wasn't a particular target,how ironic..

What about all the successful raids in the West with the drugs and prostitutes etc with houses in Westmoorings,Goodwood park and Glencoe,Fairways,Valsayn etc being searched and people arrested? So these didnt happen?

Utter crap..

How is his business partner supposed to sell property cars etc without having "rights and title"?

Thank you Bravs.

All, don't let a few peeps try to pin what's happening on "race." That card comes to play when the person (s) are desperate or are from the 4 opposition politicians who subscribe to a racist ideology.
(The rank and rile of the UNC do not like these 4)

The vast, vast majority of Trinis, "Indians" included do not and will not buy in to this dutty "race" talk.

The majority of Trinis have been praying for the extremely wealthy to account for their extreme wealth, given their business or occupation cannot create the type of wealth they have accumulated.

Just hang tight and, observe and let the law run it course BUT DO NOT FALL FOR ANY RACIST CRAP.

Did the police raid homes in this area in the last week?

It is so easy to make bravos look stupid.

Cops raid 7 Gulf View mansions but find nothing

Emir..

A senior minister's former stepdaughter is among four people arrested following a cocaine haul in Regents Gardens, Westmoorings.



In the past that bust wouldn't have happened for many reasons..

What more proof does the dirty minded need that these people are on a different level and things are really changing in T&T,it will take time to see the results,but if you are capable you can see the progress along the way,but they aren't,they're too consumed by their insecurities,bitterness and false entitlement.

Elections On the horizon

Rowley cant defend his 4 years so ...

A comment in Newspapers

Mr CoP if the raids were not political, racial, discriminatory, what type of raid was it? What was the specific purpose for raiding 7 well to-do upright-senior citizens successful business peoples homes?. Were they harboring criminals? Were they forming a gang?
What a Joke. Harassing the rich and causing the death of an innocent Child!

When a country selects dunderheads to lead in positions of responsibility, the result would be chaos. How can a geologist run a country? Does he think he is dealing with rocks?
What does the qualifications as an engineer entitle you to become the top economist in the country?
How does military service qualify you to run a Police service in preference to other senior officers on a merit list?
A tourism minister does not know how to turn off mobile data on a cell phone?
A CJ lobbying for houses for his known criminal buddies? A Speaker denying the right of elected representatives to speak in Parliament.
A banker from Ghana brought into Public Utilities and does not know the counties we have on the island?
3 or 4 ministers of national security and over 2000 murders during their term of office.

Notice NO Gary and apparently, he's out of the Country Conveniently. I bet he's not far probably down the islands and if the officers searching these properties found anything Gary will make an appearance in full Military/Police tactical gear for the Photo opportunity with his hands on his waist and shirt cuffs tucked behind the face of his Rolex Watch to make sure that gets noticed.

Need I go on?

Were there raids in Gulf-View that week in Westmoorings asshole?? Many more houses in the West were raided in connection with those successful Westmoorings raids..

Idiot..

Yeah that crossed my mind too,but in T&T those types of guys have signed transfer forms with copies of their IDs in their car file,with a lil middle man link for a small change and the car you can complete the process,the middle man who most times would be a man who usually registers cars for car companies etc and familiar at the licensing office would just push the papers and an officer would just confirm vin etc and sign off car at inspection bay,for a customer who's buying a new car or sum'n..

But this is drug business,he could've even kidnapped himself to escape something that's brewing..

He's trying to cash out stealthily..

You have just proven that you have a comprehension problem.

The individual is saying allegations for years but no homes searched in the last week, dummy?

You must have a learning disability since you show the following indications.

Difficulty with reading comprehension or math skills.

Even if you try a gazillion times you will not succeed. You dum dum. You have the IQ of a cucumber.

I warned you against the dangers of projecting a murder rate for year end with only 6 weeks of data on hand. It has come to pass and only you on this MB could not figure out the dangers of doing so. It has got to be year on year comparisons to be meaningful.

And you confidently predicted a drastic lowering of TNT's murder rate this year with the authority of a jackass.
