Operation Triple Knock Shakes Up Trafficking Network

The Counter Trafficking Unit TT continues its comprehensive investigation into Operation Triple Knock, steadily dismantling the network responsible for human trafficking and sexual exploitation in Trinidad and Tobago. On 12th August 2025, officers apprehended Justin Nock, a 39-year-old Trinidadian entrepreneur, and Samuel Weekes, a 48-year-old Trinidadian Licensed Bailiff. The arrests took place at D’ Krab House Sports Bar, Chanka Trace, El Socorro, and in the Tunapuna district respectively. Both men were formally charged two days later. Nock was charged with harbouring for the purpose of sexual exploitation and aiding in prostitution, while Weekes was charged with transporting for the purpose of sexual exploitation. These recent charges bring the total number of people charged under Operation Triple Knock to six, all of whom have been denied bail.
