Historic Port of Spain Prison Set for Decommissioning

In a significant move, Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander has revealed plans to decommission the historic Port of Spain Prison, which has stood for 268 years. The process will be executed in four stages, starting with the transfer of inmates to the Maximum Security Prison. The prison, one of the oldest in the country, has been a subject of public discussion due to its ageing infrastructure and overcrowded conditions. This decision marks a substantial transformation in the management of Trinidad and Tobago’s penal system. More details about the decommissioning timeline and subsequent stages will be disclosed in the forthcoming weeks.
