Yasin Abu Bakr, leader of the Trinidad & Tobago based Jamaat-al-Muslimeen, and eight other members of his organisation, were detained by police on Monday, as part of the ongoing investigation into the murder of former senator and prosecutor, Dana Seetahal.
The group was arrested by police during consecutive raids on their homes, and remained detained separately at various police stations in north Trinidad last night.
The arrests come a little over a year after Seetahal was brutally assassinated while driving through Woodbrook on May 4, 2015.
This development also came seven days ahead of the anniversary of the July 27, 1990 attempted coup, staged by Abu Bakr and his men.
