Three men were ex­pect­ed to ap­pear be­fore a Mas­ter of the High Court yes­ter­day, charged with firearm-re­lat­ed of­fences.

The TTPS, in a state­ment, said Jabari Clarke, Ja­heim Mc­Sween and Gio­van­ni Mauge, of Mor­vant, were all charged with pos­ses­sion of a firearm and am­mu­ni­tion, while Mauge faced an ad­di­tion­al charge of pos­ses­sion of a stolen mo­tor ve­hi­cle.

The trio was charged on Sun­day, fol­low­ing their ar­rest last Thurs­day, when they were found in pos­ses­sion of one Tau­rus pis­tol, 14 rounds of am­mu­ni­tion and a stolen ve­hi­cle. Mean­while, a 33-year-old fe­male Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic na­tion­al was ar­rest­ed for pos­ses­sion of a firearm and am­mu­ni­tion.

She was ar­rest­ed dur­ing an in­tel­li­gence-led op­er­a­tion con­duct­ed in the Cen­tral Di­vi­sion be­tween 8 pm and 11 pm, on Sun­day.

Of­fi­cers of the Gang Unit and Ari­ma In­tel­li­gence and Op­er­a­tions Team pro­ceed­ed to the Cunu­pia, where they searched a house.

Po­lice said a fe­male sus­pect, who was there with a ba­by at the time, al­leged­ly dis­played sus­pi­cious be­hav­iour and at­tempt­ed to hide an ob­ject un­der a crib mat­tress. Po­lice said it was an AR-15 ri­fle, loaded with a mag­a­zine con­tain­ing 100 rounds of 5.56 am­mu­ni­tion. The woman was ar­rest­ed in con­nec­tion with the find.

And, one firearm and a quan­ti­ty of am­mu­ni­tion were found by of­fi­cers of the In­ter-Agency Task Force dur­ing an op­er­a­tion con­duct­ed in the North Cen­tral Di­vi­sion be­tween 11 am and 5 pm, on Sun­day.

Of­fi­cers were on mo­bile pa­trol in the Pi­ar­co dis­trict, when they stopped and searched an area where two men were seen ear­li­er. The search re­sult­ed in one Beretta pis­tol, loaded with four rounds of am­mu­ni­tion, be­ing found.

During my consultation with Ms Brafit CEO Nicole Joseph-Chin, what was supposed to be a simple mastectomy bra fitting became something much deeper. Her thoughtful questions unlocked emotions I didn’t even realise I was holding in. She comforted, reassured, and helped me face the truth of what was coming. That bra wasn’t just clothing—it was the first real symbol of life after surgery.
