Almost a year has passed since PC Shakala Charles recited what he thought was his final prayer as he bled out on a street in east Port-of-Spain.
The 34-year-old policeman was shot with a round of rifle calibre ammunition while in the line of duty on the night of July 22, 2024.
And while he has gained a new appreciation for life and family, Charles says he is disappointed over the slow pace of the investigation into the incident which almost ended his life.
