Ten days af­ter trades­man At­i­ba Shal­low was gunned down in Mt D’Or, his griev­ing rel­a­tives are de­mand­ing ur­gent re­forms to what they de­scribe as slow and painful process­es faced by fam­i­lies of mur­der vic­tims, af­ter his au­top­sy was fi­nal­ly com­plet­ed yes­ter­day.

Shal­low, 45, was gunned down on May 1, af­ter go­ing to a near­by job­site for work as a roofer.

The rel­a­tives said the de­lays in Shal­low’s post-mortem were part­ly due to po­lice of­fi­cers who for­got to bring the nec­es­sary doc­u­ments on one oc­ca­sion, which led to the pro­ce­dure be­ing de­layed to a lat­er date.
