13 Hrs Ago
THE STATE has agreed to compensate a part-time handyman who was arrested at his girlfriend’s home in Coalmine, Sangre Grande, in 2016.
Justice Nadia Kangaloo registered a consent order in Kenrick Gyan’s claim against the State, and by consent, the State agreed to pay him $70,000 in compensation.
As a result, Gyan was given permission to withdraw his claim, which alleged he was falsely imprisoned by the police on August 13, 2016.
On that day, he said he was at his girlfriend’s home when, at about 11 pm, police came and executed a search warrant.

Returning president of the Public Services Association (PSA) Watson Duke is urging disgruntled candidates and members to take up their concerns with the association s election committee, as he believes the voting process was free and fair.
The elections, held on Monday, came after three years of lawsuits raised when former candidate Gabriel Solomon questioned the validity of the PSA s voters list.
The elections were originally scheduled for November 23, but were delayed again to December 14 when High Court judge Nadia Kangaloo found duplications in the list presented by the association at the time.
Official PSA election results yet to be declared
Curtis Cuffie -
After more than a day of counting ballots, the official results of the Public Services Association (PSA) elections were not declared up to 6 pm on Tuesday.
Speaking with Newsday earlier on Tuesday, sitting PSA president Watson Duke predicted the last of the ballots should have been counted by 5 pm but officials were unable to give any confirmation on an official winner up to an hour later.
Newsday understands the PSA s election officer Selwyn Malcolm was the only person counting ballots which led to the slow pace of results.
The election which was held on Monday was the result of three years of legal battles which began when former candidate Solomon Gabriel filed a lawsuit over concerns of a flawed voters list in 2017.
