Parliament has approved legislation that bans all cryptocurrency trading and transactions in Trinidad and Tobago for two years, until December 31, 2027.

The Virtual Assets and Virtual Assets Service Providers Bill 2025 was passed in the House of Representatives on Friday, November 21, 2025, by a vote of 25 to 11.

The law prohibits the purchase, sale, exchange, or transfer of virtual assets, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, with penalties reaching $5 million for violations.

Under the new law, existing crypto operators must notify the Trinidad and Tobago Securities and Exchange Commission within 30 days and fully cease operations within three months of enactment.

Following its passage in the House, the bill will move to the Senate for further consideration before being sent to the President for formal assent.

Fake doctor, arrested and charged: Diagnosed 'patients' with varying ailments—pleads not-guilty

A 39-year-old man of Bon Air North, D’Abadie, has been charged with multiple offences under the Medical Board Act after allegedly posing as a medical doctor and treating patients at an unlicensed facility in Arima.

Timothy Malchan appeared before Magistrate Ali at the Arima Third Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, November 20, 2025, where he pleaded not guilty to three offences:

1. Using medical titles and descriptions while not registered

2. Assuming the title of “doctor” while not registered

3. Diagnosing human ailments while not registered

He was granted $50,000 own bail and is expected to reappear in court on June 17, 2026.

The charges stem from an investigation launched in January 2025, following a report from the Eastern Regional Health Authority (ERHA). It was alleged that Malchan contacted ERHA patients to discuss their confidential medical records and requested payment for what he claimed were medical consultations.

Subsequent checks with the Medical Board of Trinidad and Tobago revealed that Malchan was not registered as a medical practitioner and was not certified in Cardiovascular Disease, Thoracic Surgery or Cardiothoracic Surgery, despite advertising himself as a specialist in those fields. Further inquiries confirmed he had never been registered with any board under the Council for Professions Related to Medicine.

Investigators later uncovered that Malchan was operating out of an office at the corner of St. Joseph and Sanchez Streets, Arima, which was being promoted on social media and displayed signage indicating the presence of a medical practice.

The exercise was spearheaded by Snr Supt Avinash Singh, Supt Theodore-Persad and ASP Nanan, and supervised by Inspector Seepersad and Sgt Emrith, with support from other officers of the Anti-Corruption Investigations Bureau (ACIB).

During the operation, investigators executed a search warrant at the location, where several records were seized. Malchan was subsequently arrested and formally charged.

In a statement, the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) warned the public to remain vigilant when seeking medical services and to verify the credentials of any healthcare provider before accepting treatment.

“Be cautious of unlicensed practitioners or individuals making exaggerated claims. Confirm their licensure with the relevant authorities and report any suspicious activity,” the TTPS advised.

Investigations are continuing.

Government Faces Backlash Over Request to U.S. on Citizens’ Visas

Port of Spain – The Government of Trinidad and Tobago is facing mounting criticism after the Minister of Homeland Security formally requested that United States authorities review or revoke the visas of Trinidad and Tobago nationals living abroad who, according to the Minister, have made social-media statements deemed “destabilising.”

The development comes just two days after Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar publicly distanced her administration from the recently reported revocation of Gary Aboud’s U.S. visa. At the time, the Prime Minister assured the public that the Government had “no involvement whatsoever” in such decisions, emphasising that visa matters are made solely by the United States based on its own intelligence and internal processes.

However, the Minister’s latest request has raised serious questions about possible contradictions within the Government’s position and its role in influencing foreign authorities.

Questions About Consistency and Government Involvement
The Minister’s direct appeal to U.S. officials appears to conflict with the Prime Minister’s earlier statements, and has sparked speculation that the administration may indeed have been involved in Mr. Aboud’s visa issue—despite official denials.
Political observers say the decision marks the first time in Trinidad and Tobago’s history that a government has sought to involve a foreign state in punitive action against its own citizens over speech-related matters.

Concerns Over Free Speech

Legal and democratic commentators have described the move as a significant overreach of ministerial authority, raising concerns about the potential erosion of free expression in the country.
Analysts note that the October 31 national panic—cited by the Minister as a reason for the request—was widely regarded as the result of communication failures within state systems rather than a coordinated foreign-based effort to destabilise the country.
Democratic Principles at Stake

Critics argue that the call for foreign intervention in response to political commentary sets a troubling precedent, one that could blur the lines between genuine national-security threats and criticism of the Government.

Commenting on the wider implications, one political analyst said:
“When a government turns to another state to punish its own citizens for speech, it is not protecting the nation. It is undermining the democratic principles it was elected to uphold.”

As public debate intensifies, there has been no official statement indicating whether U.S. authorities have acted on the Minister’s request.
The Government has not yet issued clarification on the apparent contradiction between the Prime Minister’s earlier assurances and the Minister’s recent actions.
