Chaguanas Chamber calls for advice on how population should treat with vehicles with blue flashing lights

The Chaguanas Chamber of Industry and Commerce has expressed its deep concern regarding the kidnapping of Aneesha Narine-Boodhoo and the trend of criminals using vehicles with flashing lights, similar to those used by the TTPS.

In a release, the chamber said, “We note that these acts are committed by criminals using blue flashing lights and tactical wear.

“We call on the authorities to clearly advise the population how to respond to vehicles with blue flashing lights, especially when they are driven by individuals who are suspicious looking.”

It added, “Businessmen in the area are expressing serious fears especially with the ushering of the new year. This came on the heals of the recent upsurge in murders committed by individuals or groups who appear to be fearless by brandishing high powered weapons along the nation highway.

“We are all at risk from the criminal element even with personal security. Whilst we know there are hard working law enforcement officers the business community is calling on the authorities to clearly state how we should operate in situations like these.”
