    SOURCE: guardian.co.tt – A detention order has been issued for a woman who posted an image of the Prime Minister’s Philippine home on social media, calling on Venezuela to target it.

    The order, which was made on November 12 and gazetted yesterday, said that Olive Green-Jack should be held for her social media post.

    The order stated that Green-Jack “made and published public posts and/or comments on social media addressed to the Venezuelan Government in an attempt to influence public opinion in a manner likely to be prejudicial to public safety.”

    It added that the posts and comments invited violence on the Prime Minister, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago and members of the public by Venezuela and/or external persons, which revealed “an imminent threat to public safety.”

    Green-Jack, of Sargangar Trace, Morne Coco Road, Diego Martin, will be held at the Women’s Prison as part of the detention order.

    Hers was one of four detention orders signed by Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander. The others included: Vishnu “Rishi” Kalpoo of Iros Road, Chatham, and Ibis Street, Fanny Village, Point Fortin; Tyreek Romeo of 19th Street, Beetham Gardens; and Gerome Awai, also called Jerome “Bush” Awai, of Church Street, Petit Valley for being members of Organised Crime Group (OCG).

    The detention order against Kalpoo said he thought to be a supplier of large-scale trafficking of illegal narcotics, firearms, ammunition, contraband or uncustomed goods, human trafficking and fuel.

    Romeo is said to affiliated to the 7 Gang.

    “The detainee and other members of the group are actively planning and preparing to assist in the execution of violent reprisal attacks utilising high-powered firearms in public spaces that would create a substantial risk of harm to bystanders and civilians,” the order said.

    Awai was identified as the leader of the “Valley Monsters,” which is connected to other larger gangs such as the “Richplain Gang” and the “9 Gang,” with a cache of high-powered firearms, and is said to be responsible for murders, armed robberies, and narcotics and firearms trafficking.
