WPC Quian­na Ma­habir re­mains hos­pi­talised as her health con­tin­ues to im­prove dai­ly. Se­nior of­fi­cials of the T&T Po­lice Ser­vice yes­ter­day said Ma­habir's progress has been slow yet steady. They en­cour­aged her to keep up the fight to live. Ma­habir, 30, was shot mul­ti­ple times dur­ing a sus­pect­ed car­jack­ing out­side her home at Hy­draulic Road, Kel­ly Vil­lage, Ca­roni, around 1.35 am on Oc­to­ber 22. Po­lice said Ma­habir, who is as­signed to the TTPS Band as a drum­mer, was shot sev­er­al times dur­ing the in­ci­dent. Guardian Me­dia was told by se­nior of­fi­cers that while Ma­habir was no longer un­der the care of of­fi­cials of the In­ten­sive Care Unit (ICU), Er­ic Williams Med­ical Sci­ences Com­plex (EWM­SC), Mt Hope, she had re­mained on the ward as she con­tin­ued to re­ceive spe­cial­ist at­ten­tion. De­scrib­ing Ma­habir’s progress as re­mark­able, a se­nior of­fi­cer said it was a pos­i­tive sign as “she was start­ing to re­mem­ber more things.” He ad­mit­ted, how­ev­er, that “she doesn’t re­mem­ber the in­ci­dent, but had start­ed to recog­nise peo­ple.” Ma­habir re­port­ed­ly suf­fered in­juries to her left eye, while her full mem­o­ry was said to be “fog­gy” as well. Asked about the lev­el of sup­port the TTPS was pro­vid­ing to her and her fam­i­ly at this time, the of­fi­cial said, “The sup­port for them has been over­whelm­ing. The fam­i­ly has ac­cess to trans­port to go any­where. All the so­cial ser­vices are at their dis­pos­al, as all arms of the TTPS are giv­ing that sup­port to them at this time.” Re­gard­ing the in­ves­ti­ga­tion, a se­nior of­fi­cial in the Cen­tral Di­vi­sion said while no ar­rests have as yet been laid, sev­er­al sus­pects had been ques­tioned in re­la­tion to the in­ci­dent. The of­fi­cer as­sured, “Ar­rests are im­mi­nent.” Ma­habir had been part of an all-fe­male con­tin­gent rep­re­sent­ing the TTPS Band that re­turned to the coun­try on Oc­to­ber 22, fol­low­ing a 12-day mu­sic tour of the Ba­hamas and New Jer­sey.  - An­na-Lisa Paul
