A man suspected in several recent murders in South and Central Trinidad and two Spanish-speaking women were among eight people arrested when police raided an apartment building in Princes Town yesterday.
The operation by Southern Division CID, Southern Division Task Force and the Organised Crime and Intelligence Unit also led to the recovery of two pistols in the apartment, which police will test in order to determine whether they were used in recent crimes.
According to reports, the building along Manahambre Road, Princes Town was under surveillance for some time. Around 3 pm, the teams led by Sgt Ramlogan, Sgt Parasram, Cpl Nanan and Cpl Ramdial raided the building where they found the women.
In another apartment, they found the pistols and arrested six men.
