The Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS) is mourn­ing the pass­ing of No.7579 PC Surab Ali who test­ed pos­i­tive for Covid-19 and passed away on De­cem­ber 15th.

The Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice (Ag.) Mc Don­ald Ja­cob and mem­bers of the Ex­ec­u­tive, fam­i­ly, friends, and col­leagues shared their deep­est con­do­lences at his pass­ing.

Ac­cord­ing to the TTPS: “PC Ali, 43, who en­list­ed in­to the TTPS on De­cem­ber 15th, 2012 was last at­tached to the Fi­nance Branch – Po­lice Stores, Ari­ma.

Sgt. Sel­wyn Le­gendre, of the Fi­nance Branch – Stores ware­house in Ari­ma, when asked to com­ment on the pass­ing of the of­fi­cer, said that he is un­able to find the words to ad­e­quate­ly de­scribe him, but was able to bring him­self to share that when he heard of the news, “I broke down in tears.”

He added, “PC Ali was a hard work­er who demon­strat­ed a strong sense of pride on the job. The loss is a blow to the unit and more­over the or­gan­i­sa­tion.” PC Ali leaves to mourn his wife and two daugh­ters.”

During my consultation with Ms Brafit CEO Nicole Joseph-Chin, what was supposed to be a simple mastectomy bra fitting became something much deeper. Her thoughtful questions unlocked emotions I didn’t even realise I was holding in. She comforted, reassured, and helped me face the truth of what was coming. That bra wasn’t just clothing—it was the first real symbol of life after surgery.
