AG begs public: Hold strain a bit longer
Attorney General Faris Al-Rawi - Vidya Thurab
ATTORNEY General Faris Al-Rawi on Sunday appealed to the population to hold on a bit longer and adhere to the adjusted curfew periods which will be implemented only for the Indian Arrival Day and Corpus Christi public holidays, on Monday and Thursday this week, respectively.
At a virtual news conference on Sunday, he premised his appeal on the Prime Minister s announcement a day earlier that Trinidad and Tobago will be receiving additional doses of covid19 vaccines, starting next month.
Al-Rawi said money was not an issue in acquiring covid19 vaccines. He supported statements by Dr Rowley and Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh about acquiring more vaccines and accelerating Government s vaccination programme, respectively.

COUVA North MP Ravi Ratiram has asked both the Commissioner of Police (CoP) Gary Griffith and the Integrity Commission to investigate a possible diversion of some food boxes/hampers meant for MPs to distribute to needy constituents.
He complained that a former PNM general election candidate publicly announced on Facebook that she had distributed Namdevco hampers.
The MP asked each entity to investigate whether an allocation of 100 food boxes to the candidate s charitable foundation had been a breach of the Integrity in Public Life Act, and asked Griffith to conduct a criminal investigation.
