National Security Minister Stuart Young has denied that ten people were bumped off the flight which brought Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowleyâs daughter Sonel Rowley-Stewart to Trinidad from New York.
The Sunday Express was forwarded information which claimed that people-including two elderly persons-were bumped off the flight last Wednesday.
The allegation followed a call from social media activist Suzette Louwe for the media to investigate if the Prime Ministerâs daughter and several of her friends were given preferential treatment.
In a Facebook post, Louwe asked the Prime Minister to say if the army and police officers were at Piarco International Airport âclearing out airport staffâ because his daughter and eight of her friends were on the flight from New York.
