dc.description.abstractTrinidad and Tobago’s most wanted criminal and notorious drug lord Nankissoon Boodram (aka Dole Chadee) was captured on the south western coast of Trinidad by a team of soldiers. Dole Chadee has been featured prominently in the infamous 1986 Scott Drug Report, yet there seemed insufficient evidence to charge him. Despite a warrant for his arrest on a murder charge, he has been on the run for several years. After his arrest he was taken to see National Security Minister – Russell Huggins before being taken into custody – correspondent tony Fraser reports on Chadee’s arrest and the implications for Trinidad and Tobago’s sizeable drug trade. Speculation is rife in Barbados that senior regional trade unionist Leroy Trotman - General Secretary of the powerful Barbados Workers’ Union and also the leader of the Coalition of Trade Unions of the 1991 street protest plans to resign from the ruling Democratic Labour Party over government’s economic programme and sit in parliament as an independent. This decision follows his criticism of the region’s declining regional trade union movement - correspondent Sandra Baptiste reports. Regional leaders flew home at the end of their intercessional meeting in Dominica there is suggestion that they should open their regular discussions. Atherton E. Martin, NGO representative suggested creating an avenue to make these discussions more relevant to the man in the street. Heads of government concerns were centered around the environment, Democracy in Haiti, debt, relations with the United States and other recurring issues - correspondent Sandra Baptiste reports. Politicians getting a rough ride at the second election campaign debate in Jamaica, following a change in format from the last discussion local talk show hosts were given a chance to press Finance Minister – Hugh Small, his opposition counterpart Bruce Golding and their party colleagues. One of the issues which caused heated debate, was political violence in Jamaica. In an election campaign debate interview Human Rights Activists - Flow O’connor threw comments at the PNP Carlyle Dunkley and the JLP’s Bruce Golding - correspondent Sandra Baptiste reports. The pace of negotiations between the United Nations and Haiti’s de facto Authority have appeared to have slowed down, and UN Special Envoy Dante Caputo has returned to Haiti to negotiate a return to democracy - correspondent Michael Norton has been trailing him and reports from Port-au-Prince. A French newspaper carried an advertisement for the international clothing company – United Colors of Benetton, featuring Cuban leader Fidel Castro as an unwitting model reading a copy of the magazine published by Benetton. The ad. appeared in the L'Humanité daily newspaper linked to the French Communist Party (PCF). Benetton spokesperson admitted that the photo of Castro in full uniform posing from behind his desk had been published without his consent, and that President Castro was concerned that the photo had been taken out of context from an interview he had with the company’s president – correspondent Debbie Ransome reports.en_US
