Wildlife trader TIP convict sentenced to three years

Feezal Shaw

Wildlife trader, Feezal Shaw was recently sentenced to three years imprisonment and fined $2.1 million in restitution to the survivors after being found guilty on a single count of Trafficking in Persons (TIP).

Shaw, of Soedyke Public Road, appeared before Magis-trate Faith McGusty earlier this week and was handed down the sentence following a lengthy trial period.

This restitution request was presented by a senior officer attached to the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security’s Counter-Trafficking in Persons Unit as the Unit continues to support survivors of this egregious act.
