A challenging and intricate search and rescue mission culminated in the successful extraction of an injured hiker from the dense forests of Brasso Seco, Trinidad and Tobago. Fayyad Hosine, who sustained severe injuries during a hiking expedition, was rescued on November 24 after a three-day operation involving the Trinidad and Tobago Regiment (TTR) and the TT Fire Services (TTFS). The incident occurred near the Sombasson Waterfall, a location that posed significant challenges due to its rugged terrain and limited communication capabilities. Hosine, part of a group of five hikers, injured his left leg on November 21 during a demanding 19-pitch descent approximately 17 km inside Lalaja South Road. While the other hikers sought help, hike organizer Justine Ramdhanie remained with Hosine. The rescue operation, led by five soldiers from the TTR’s 1st Engineer Battalion, including a female medic, and supported by TTFS search and rescue specialist Joseph Mohanlal, involved navigating steep and treacherous terrain both day and night. The successful rescue highlights the effectiveness of Trinidad and Tobago’s multi-agency emergency response framework and the dedication of the TTR and TTFS in ensuring public safety.
