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 Chins 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 Jamaicans 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.
Sukhdeos 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.
Chins 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.

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..

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.

"The raids at seven homes in Gulf View of only Indian business members is glaring and worrisome.
The Imam and bravos have reading and comprehension problems.The individual noted Gulf View only during the last week.!!!!

Did the police raid homes in this area in the last week?
It is so easy to make bravos look stupid.

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?

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?
