02:16This is more than just news.
02:17It's accountability, the undisputed number one program in Trinidad and Tobago, delivering the hard-hitting investigations you rely on.
02:24The TV6 News, revealing facts, provoking opinions.
02:41Good evening, Trinidad and Tobago international audience, and of course, our brothers and sisters in Grenada.
02:47This is Beyond the Tape, and I'm your host, Whitney Husbands.
02:50Now, I hope those of you had an enjoyable and safe weekend.
02:53It was a wet one for many, because in the Cedrus area, we saw a lot of water.
02:58And we saw persons who were affected, and it was really sad to see, because every time rain falls,
03:05it causes many issues to persons throughout the country.
03:09Now, earlier today as well, we saw a lot of rainfall in the Carpichima area, also in the Claxton Bay
03:17area.
03:18So, as rain continues to fall in pockets throughout Trinidad and Tobago, we ask persons to also be vigilant.
03:24And I am sure the relevant authorities, which we have already seen since with the Cedrus area,
03:30where they will be stepping in to help those families, because a lot of properties were damaged.
03:34Persons are inconvenienced, and I'm sure this week is going to be a hard one,
03:38because we still don't know how the rain may fall, because water is taking over many parts of our country,
03:44especially villages that we're seeing before us right now in the Cedrus area.
03:48So again, we are hoping that we are able to find a solution with this flooding,
03:52and to guide us, of course, with what is taking place with the water throughout Trinidad and Tobago,
03:57a gentleman who is always willing to be here to inform us.
04:01And he also had an extremely busy weekend, the gentleman who is with us each and every Monday.
04:05We have Captain Rambrach here with us. Good evening to you, Sue, and how are you?
04:09Good evening, Whitney. Pleasant. Good evening to our viewers on Beyond the Tape and TV6,
04:15to our international audience and our audience in Grenadier. Pleasant good evening.
04:21I hope Monday is going well for all of us, but I'm convinced, Whitney, that God is our training.
04:28The Met Office issued today an adverse weather alert for West Trinidad from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
04:37Now the rain started to fall higher up the corridor, and something happened.
04:43The clouds, those huge clouds, just went over the Northern Range and went to the North Coast.
04:51So I think we averted a drenching of West Trinidad this evening.
04:57And also, like, you know, we know other parts got little bits of rain.
05:04But we have to remind people we are in the rainy season.
05:07We are in the rainy season.
05:08It seems that we're fighting El Nino and we're getting some rain, so we have to be thankful.
05:14But yes, those people in Cedras, I know every one of those places, and I'm really sorry that you got
05:20flooded out.
05:21But I think the authorities should step in and try and see what caused it and clear the drains and
05:28whatnot to get you back on track.
05:30Now, thus far, I've seen the authorities stepping in because we saw the Minister of World Development was making our
05:35statements and saying that they're going to step in.
05:37We see just what we don't know what's going to happen now with Carpi Chima, Claxton B, and some other
05:41areas.
05:42But I'm sure they will, and the communities will come together.
05:44Something I also noticed, Captain, that I'm sure persons took in as well where we see the reshuffling of some
05:50ministers.
05:51Yes, I saw the assignments, I should say, of some ministers also.
05:55Yeah, and I think that is important.
05:58That's an important exercise.
05:59It means that the person who heads the government is keeping her finger and pulse on everything that is going
06:05on.
06:05I think portfolios must be aligned with ministries, and sometimes you may not be working in a particular ministry, so
06:15you need to try it this way.
06:17But the key thing is to align the ministry with the portfolios, and I think that exercise is always ongoing
06:25in any government.
06:26Nothing new, nothing new.
06:27Nothing new.
06:28And they propose three new boroughs, which will make it 17, because that's where we stand here at 14, which
06:33is St. Augustine, we saw Bar, Tarry, and Coover.
06:37Yes.
06:37And they said they may also make Chaguanas a city.
06:40I read that Chaguanas will soon become a city.
06:43So you know you have growing status in these communities.
06:46They've been well expanded, those that are earmarked to be named boroughs, and I think they deserve it at the
06:54end of the day.
06:55Yes, I think many persons, because, sorry to say, some of the people who live in the West, don't like
07:01to pass the lighters unless they're going to the airport,
07:04and don't realize there are many places developing that were considered rural.
07:08It's no longer rural.
07:10No, it's no longer rural.
07:11It's no longer rural.
07:12It's heavy populated.
07:12densely populated, and you have communities actually bursting at its boundaries.
07:19Yes.
07:19There's little land space there.
07:21So I think they deserve the upgrade to boroughs.
07:23Yes.
07:24So let's dive straight in.
07:25We have a lot to discuss our missions.
07:27We were very busy for the entire weekend, and also on the weekend.
07:31And the team was out there to try and locate a young man 17 years old by the name of
07:39Satish Paul Sami.
07:41He was from Joyce Road, and the team was out quickly that morning, and they eventually established contact with the
07:48persons who he went by.
07:50There was some dispute in the house, and he overnighted, and the team was out there early, and they were
07:55able to get him to the police station, the Freeport police station.
08:01His parents came, and well, of course, the team would have left at that time for them to sort out
08:08their problems.
08:09And then we had Leonardo Jimenez.
08:12He is 20 years old from Chase Village, and his family was worried, and we eventually located him.
08:20Now, the thing with Leonardo is that he got a new job in South Canada.
08:25He took up himself.
08:26He doesn't have a phone, and he got residence at the new job place, and he left immediately to work.
08:32So, you know, he had no means of communicating with his family.
08:37And so that issue was resolved.
08:43And then we had a massive tree fall again because of the rain in the Kabuki district.
08:49Yes, not surprised.
08:50And two of our members, Celine and Vinod Ramnath, they were out there trying to clear this huge cemetery that
08:59had fallen across the roadway.
09:01Now, it took others, the Ministry of Works and three crews there, as well as the Fernando Tobago Fire Services,
09:08and they had to clear.
09:09Now, Whitney, a van was entrapped with industry, and all three persons escaped without injury, and the van sustained minimal
09:18damage.
09:19Because, as you can see from the visual, the tree fell just probably six feet above the ground.
09:25So, good work there by Vinod and Celine there for responding.
09:30He had to take his chainsaw and assist with the cutting of this huge salmon tree.
09:35And this mission, the next mission is Marlon Perera.
09:39Now, Marlon Perera was missing for the last five months.
09:43Yes.
09:43He went missing in April 2026.
09:47And just a couple days ago, our teammate Kesraj Tunga Suknanan and his wife, Crystal Suknanan, they were driving.
09:58They spotted a gentleman, and they were able to, you know, interview him.
10:03And this was Marlon.
10:05He looked totally different from the poster.
10:07Completely different, yes.
10:08And his family was so happy.
10:10They journeyed from Aruka to DB.
10:14Tunga and his wife waited until they arrived.
10:17And I know there's a little clip with his mommy.
10:20I don't know if Jackie has that.
10:23But she was elated, and she has been behind us to find him since April.
10:29And then we had another rain-related incident where three hunters were marooned in the forest when a tree fell
10:41and blocked their vehicle as they were existing.
10:44They were hunting grounds in Heights of Arepo.
10:46Yes.
10:47And our teammate Elkin and two other members, Elkin James, they were able to get there.
10:53Now, to prepare for a mission like this, you have to have a winch on a van.
10:57You have to have chainsaws ready.
11:01And 84-year-old McPherson, he and two other hunters, they were trapped overnight.
11:07They walked for two miles, and they got in contact with us.
11:14And Elkin and the team went up there and they were able to free them.
11:17The vehicle, they were trying to cut a bypass road around the fallen tree, and the vehicle got stuck.
11:24So, you know, you needed the winch on the van.
11:26So, it's a good thing we have some of our vehicles with the winch on it, and they were able
11:32to get them out safely.
11:34And then Vishnu Pasad, Whitney, today is day 16.
11:40He has been missing in the table and forest since the 19th of September.
11:45And yesterday, I took a team inside there.
11:48We spent, we covered 15 kilometers of forest in five and a half hours.
11:54And thus far, we have not been able to locate it.
12:01There is one area after our debriefing that we probably will look at going back in.
12:07This is the Ottawa River where you went to Kachikonks.
12:11And the river was high due to the heavy rainfall in that area.
12:16So, hopefully we can get some time to go back in.
12:21And there's one area we still have to search.
12:24But this is a huge forest.
12:26And we just have it, we've sectioned it out.
12:30And it takes a lot of time to go through if you're looking for something that will lead you to
12:37Vishnu Pasad.
12:40And so, that would be the missions we had for the week into the weekend.
12:48Yeah.
12:48So, I am hoping that with regards to persons hunting in the mini-season,
12:54we will see that you have to be careful and understand your path.
12:58Yeah.
12:58I don't know if our producer has it, but ASP, Ronnie Rampalad,
13:03who is head of the Air Support and Coastal Unit,
13:06they issued an advisory and I thought it was timely.
13:11Because at this point in time, you know what the guys said last night when we came out of the
13:17forest?
13:17My teammates.
13:18What?
13:18Captain, I hope we don't get a call out for lost hikers in the northern region.
13:22Oh, gross. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:23And that release was so timely to remind persons to be vigilant about the weather conditions
13:29and the change in the weather conditions when you're venturing outdoors.
13:34I remember last hunting season, we did have to go and locate quite a few hunters.
13:39So, we are appealing to hunters.
13:41I saw a vehicle on the road today with dogs and watching the weather and saying,
13:46I wonder if you're carrying those dogs inside there.
13:49Right?
13:50We look at the weather and, you know, avoid the hunting when there's heavy rainfall.
13:56It creates problems.
13:58You have rising rivers.
13:59Yes.
14:00And I forgot to tell you when we were in Tablan yesterday, one of the rivers rose on us.
14:05Wow, we were there.
14:05But of course, we have the skills to get through.
14:08So, you know, I just want to ask all outdoor users to be careful during rainy weather.
14:16Yeah.
14:17Now, I'm not sure if you saw this, but this was trending on social media over the weekend.
14:22We are not sure of the circumstances, but we saw a female who was thrown from a vehicle.
14:26Yeah.
14:26And many persons have so many questions.
14:28This is what transpired.
14:31Really disturbing.
14:35So, Captain, we're not sure if she was thrown or she threw herself out.
14:38But what we saw about is that it took place in Trinidad.
14:43And, you know, the fact that she was able to walk out with her purse.
14:47But any way you look at it, that is unacceptable.
14:53Yes.
14:53Right?
14:53She could have been severely injured.
14:55I don't know if it was some domestic argument.
14:58But when I think when it hit social media, we were all shocked.
15:02Yes.
15:03I was.
15:03I watched that about ten times because I'm like...
15:06Yeah.
15:06This is a movement.
15:07We're trying to throw somebody on the asphalt.
15:09And it seems like the person either wanted to get out as quickly as possible, given the opportunity.
15:16And the person then stopped because they didn't want to be seen, I guess, with the individual anymore.
15:22Yeah.
15:23Because seeing someone thrown out or threw in themselves out of a vehicle means something is up.
15:28So I'm hoping the relevant authorities will step in.
15:30And I think the number has been identified.
15:33Yes.
15:33And I think the authorities would be looking into it.
15:36Yeah.
15:36Also, there was a serious RT incident in the Canupia area.
15:40That was another story that was also trending on social media.
15:43And from the reports that we have here, one man was killed and two others were left in critical condition
15:50after a car plunged into the Canupia River in the early hours of yesterday.
15:56The driver, whose identity, I should say, sorry, had not been established up to this afternoon, died at the Eric
16:04Williams Medical Science Complex, where he and the two other occupants were taken following the crash.
16:10The incident was said to have taken place around 6 a.m. along the southern main road, Canupia, after the
16:17driver of a red Nissan Note reportedly left a nearby gas station after refueling.
16:22Police said the vehicle was traveling north along the roadway when, a short distance from the gas station, the driver
16:28lost control.
16:30The car crashed into a metal barrier on the western side of the road before plunging approximately 15 feet into
16:38the river.
16:39The driver was accompanied by a man and a woman, both of whom were also injured in the crash.
16:44Their identities were also not released up to this afternoon.
16:48All three occupants were rescued and transported to hospital for treatment, where the driver died.
16:54The other two remained warded in critical condition, officers stated.
16:58The vehicle, they said, was a rental car belonging to a company based in Arema.
17:03Police investigations into the circumstances surrounding the crash are continuing.
17:08Captain, anything that you have?
17:10Well, condolences to the family of the DC's who are suffering from injuries.
17:15But I also want to say, give commendations to the Trinidad and Tobago Fire Services.
17:20They were the first responders.
17:22And when you're looking at an incident like that, we had an experience in South Trinidad on the highway C3
17:29there,
17:30where a van flipped and both occupants were killed in running water.
17:35So we have to say thank God that two persons were able to survive this,
17:39because having to deal with a car crash with water present is difficult to survive that.
17:46And when you look at the vehicle and you see the impact, you know, they walked away alive.
17:52Thank God for that.
17:54But Captain, they won't speed in from what we just saw in the video.
17:57And that just goes to show at any moment, anything can happen to you.
18:01And he was not, or she, who was driving at the time, but whomever was not speeding.
18:06No.
18:07And if you look at the visual there, you would see first responders in the water trying to get them
18:13out.
18:13That was not at a high speed.
18:14No, it certainly is not at a high speed.
18:16But, you know, sometimes on the wet road, you could have, especially around corners like that,
18:22you could have diesel that fell on the road and that type of thing.
18:25So that, obviously, he was probably driving the vehicle for the first time.
18:30From what I read, you know, it's a rental company.
18:32Yes.
18:32God asked him to drop these people home.
18:35So sad.
18:36So sad.
18:38Yeah.
18:39Condolences to the family again.
18:41Yeah.
18:41Well, right now, let's take a look at what's making today's headlines.
19:20And those are your stories making today's headlines.

31:52the rules and regulations of the roadways so let's take a look
32:04i am number two one nine six two fish nichols and today we're doing a little question here
32:08to see what you know or if you remember the stuff that would have been taught to you or you
32:13would have
32:13to remember during you getting your driver's permit right so the question is number three we're looking
32:19at right what is the legal limit for drinking and driving in trinidad and tobago a 35 micrograms b 35
32:30milliliters per 100 grams of breath c 35 micrograms per 100 milliliters of breath d 36 milliliters per 100
32:41milliliters per 100 milliliters per 100 milliseconds of breath well i'll tell you something when i got
32:44my license you had no drink driving loads huh okay so this question never arose but make her guess
32:51what i would imagine probably maybe the c yeah that is correct all right maybe they should drop it
33:01to 25. somelatac
33:05question you are approaching a two-lane roundabout which is the most appropriate
33:10lane when proceeding straight so we have a left lane b right lane c left or right lane or d
33:19doesn't matter i said the left lane yes it makes more sense because on the left lane you go like
33:25this the one on the right lane inside will be turning to go that direction going around the
33:31roundabout so you are two for two so far sorry correct so i'm gonna ask the final question
33:36this is the make or break and it's number four okay right so when turning left at a two-lane
33:43roundabout which is the most appropriate lane when proceeding a doesn't matter b left c middle d
33:52right well i would say left because you're going left you stick to the left see left yeah so left
33:58is
33:59the answer yeah yeah all right all right join so we have so congratulations we have a prize for you
34:07oh even better yeah we have a prize for you no ticket today we have a prize congratulations again

34:41regulations look at the signs because you are on the nation's road daily anyway we're still out here
34:47and we're looking for more contests
34:48and that was your back to basics with pc because that we saw there three for three finally we got
35:02yeah we got the three correct and um you see at the approaching roundabouts the two lane you know
35:08once you know you're going to go around the roundabout you stay on the right yes once you have any
35:13other
35:13business that's like you don't turn in left or going around to continue street keep on your left and
35:20i know we struggled with the alcohol yes yeah i was yeah we got it correct because i guess i
35:26can't
35:26remember we don't we don't we don't we don't come drink and drive right no we should not so but
35:30we should
35:31still know the law and then um so i think it's a great initiative he mentioned the council so he
35:37was

36:03weather know when to cancel and always remember there will always be another day you have persons
36:10planning hikes and they just do not want to cancel it um because of the weather so this advisory is
36:19saying
36:20there will always be another day and it was put out by the um the the the the the trinidad
36:27bingo air support and coastal unit and um you know when i saw it i said that this is this
36:34is really

36:41remember that we have a call on hold caller good evening hi good evening to you good evening caller
36:47hello how are you doing sir i can't understand how people could get lost
36:59i can't understand that what what do they drift away from
37:04they're supposed to stay in a line and they could never get lost and even though they get low
37:10make it low now make it low for all hikers to have a flicked gun right for at night when
37:18approaching
37:19the jump if you will see the light and have an idea where you are and then have a whistle
37:25make it
37:26make it low to have a whistle each whistle must have a whistle otherwise you cannot hike
37:33yeah and caller i want to tell you something any problem exists not with the professional hiking clubs
37:40i i interacted with them earlier this year when we had an incident up in um up in
37:47not brasso seco area madama's area where we had to assist with the extraction of a female hiker who
37:54drowned up there and i'll tell you the the problem really is when we get together as friends or family
38:01and we say we're going to maracas waterfall or we're going to rincon waterfall and we feel you know we
38:07have everything prepared those things you mentioned caller are very very important but i'll tell you
38:14something about getting lost it's only when you get lost every tree looks the same wow every tractor
38:22looks the same every river looks the same and this is this is this is why persons get lost you
38:31really
38:32you really can't make out a or b it's not like walking on a street where you have buildings and
38:37you could you could figure it out um so i agree with you but the problem exists with the amateur
38:44hikers

45:05touch with the
45:06the children and tobago flag that was used while you're really worried because we are patriotic
45:11bunch at the end that they do it day that's all part of our brand as well yeah now captain
45:18when it
45:18comes to i want to circle back a little bit with young people and having friends that they need to
45:25sift
45:26i mean you just be naive because you're young and you're thinking and these people really check for you
45:31or they consider you and many times where we're seeing before us today that you mentioned persons
45:38are missing where friends were involved and they're back home safely yeah and they can't give you account
45:44of what is happening well i don't know they i left you know this cold way and cold way and
45:50um in in in
45:51most most crimes i think you have to agree with the trainw police officer they will question the family
45:59first and the friends and i know people get upset and say well if i was last seen with you
46:05you have to
46:06question i have to be questioned i obviously must be questioned so but really and truly i don't know if
46:13you remember this case a young man um no hamilton from moruga seems to be a a nice young man
46:21his father
46:22who is well spoken father provided him with a car yes everything that was next thing yes he was found
46:29shot dead um in a home in a home invasion correct and um i'm sure you know that that again
46:36raises the
46:37question of who are your friends yes and you know he had everything he had no right to be in
46:43part of a
46:44home invasion i'm sure his parents were shocked you remember there was a story that we were speaking of
46:49he was showing this red vehicle over and over this was during the point 14 borough a young man who
46:55took
46:55his mother's car yes what is going on with that well that listen to this right so yes i got
47:03an update
47:04he never returned home but he's alive he he is alive he communicated with his mother and shortly after
47:13he was charged for larceny of a vehicle although they never found the vehicle larceny of the vehicle
47:20and other charges and he's currently in prison his mother told me i'm not going to take his meal
47:26he did it once he did it twice and she needs to put a stop date but he took her
47:32car and he went to the
47:33borough celebrations and and wasn't showing up at all but we heard from outside sources there in arima that he
47:41was around until you know the police did charge him and i agreed with the police excuse me but this
47:48is
47:48this is sad because i mean the young people clearly at this point doing what they want how they want
47:54when they please and they don't care about the consequences it gives that yeah but you know um some
48:00years ago it wasn't as bad as now i mean taking your parents car um just getting involved with friends
48:06and next thing you know you've been taking to a home invasion it wasn't at that level so you know
48:13we we intern uh you know well it has been around for the past few years but we urging parents
48:20to try
48:21and um you know keep keep your finger on what your children doing because you are the ones to guide
48:26them
48:27and they have community persons you have the police you have the church other agencies around to assist
48:34you have the schools you know you have retired persons like myself who um you know who who could
48:41help in guiding these young ones you know to fulfill their their full fullest potential now captain i
48:48wouldn't like to you there was no point in time i had any urge to take my parents car or
48:54even run away
48:54i always thought the worst would have happened and the wind which my mother in particular and still like
49:02every time i hear like you hear friends what they run away here they take this car i just couldn't
49:08because i always believed that if i did i wouldn't make it back home you wouldn't make it back home
49:13and
49:14i think that i remember always talk about caribbean parenting i wouldn't make it back home we threw it
49:19out well we we more or less you know discarded that for the um measures and it hasn't worked for
49:25training that and to be going i haven't worked for the caribbean and that's where the mother was the
49:30the disciplinarian in the home and the father was that stern role model you know making sure keeping an
49:37eye on things and and we've basically thrown that out are you you had mentioned on a show with me
49:43about
49:43the leather belt right yes yeah and you know you've got to be yes you've got to be stern with
49:49your
49:49children or they will rule you yeah and is trying and they will try to create wedges to try to
49:56get
49:56their own way and you have to be conscious of all of i think it's also important to remind parents
50:02that you could still place your child's name on a belt so if it is that it is more than
50:06one child
50:07have three or two leather belts place their name on the belt just a reminder when they pass and they
50:12see it they wonder why is my name on that belt if you want to know why your name is
50:16on that belt
50:17don't do anything that you're not supposed to yeah i would have no i would have use for it and
50:23you
50:23know i'm thinking now i mentioned teachers um whitney today's world teachers days and so we want to wish
50:30all our teachers in trinidad and tobago all types of teachers yes preschool primary secondary tertiary
50:40um happy world teachers day and i i remembered because we were talking about the role of teachers
50:47and guiding these young ones they play a tremendous role and they apart from teaching their counselors
