Joseph Emmanuel Triay (Gibraltar, 1931) is a Gibraltarian lawyer, best know by having been one of the promoters of the Doves group in the 1960s.[1] Triay suffered an attack to his home and office shortly after the publication of a letter advocating a political settlement with Spain. His yacht, the Patricia E, was the subject of an arson attack a few months later.[2]
Triay was involved in the local politics during the 1970s. He stood in the 1976 election, as an independent,[3] and in the 1980 election,[4] as leader of the Party for the Autonomy of Gibraltar.
Joseph Triay's daughter Cristina is married to Peter Caruana, current Chief Minister of Gibraltar.[5]
