Homeward bound: T&T nationals return home

Thirty-three Trinidad and Tobago nationals stranded in Barbados by the COVID-19 virus are at the Grantley Adams International Airport to return home today.

The group’s attorney  Prakash Ramadhar said yesterday that Minister of National Security Stuart Young had granted the group an exemption allowing entry after much deliberation last evening.

The 33 nationals, who were on a vacation cruise in Dubai before they made their way home via England, were left stranded in Barbados on March 23, one day after the T&T Government closed the border.
