Star Sabga’s Legal Battle Ends | Trinidad and Tobago News

Star Sabga, a 69-year-old cheese maker, is finally free after weeks of detention — the police and AG’s office dropped their appeal against her house arrest. Detained alongside her niece and nephew-in-law, the Hadeeds, in June under Preventive Detention Orders for allegedly plotting assassinations, they’ve been fighting legal battles that reached the Privy Council. With the State of Emergency still active, a tribunal recommended their release — and the Hadeeds’ charges were eventually dropped as the court system stalled. Now, Sabga’s case is winding down, though who pays her legal fees remains unresolved. But the bigger fight continues: Sabga and the Hadeeds argue they were targeted due to ethnicity and political comments made in parliament, with a major hearing scheduled for October 19th.
