Prime Minister Rowley Condemns Attack on Media

The reported physical and abusive attack on media personnel is wholly unacceptable and should not be initiated or encouraged by any person, under any circumstances. Where any laws have been broken it is unreservedly expected that adequate law enforcement is available so that the law will take its course.

In so far as these reports relate to problems and allegations at State-owned Petrotrin operations, it would be in the interest of all parties and the nation as a whole if necessary investigations of all aspects of these operations, are permitted to be conducted and concluded in such a manner as to facilitate clear and definitive conclusions which would allow the necessary accountability that the circumstances demand.

 

Dr the Hon. Keith Rowley

Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago
