STILL reeling from the attack on March 24, which left one relative dead, a Penal family has not slept at their home since the incident.

Sheldon Harripersad, 54, said memories of the incident which saw his 34-year-old son Brandon being murdered, are still raw and his family members have not had a peaceful night's rest at their Batchyia Trace home. Harripersad told Newsday he, his wife, 57 and daughter, 24, opted instead to stay at an unnamed location.

"I can't stay here with my daughter and my wife alone. It's not two men again (in the house). It's one. We just don't want to stay here."
