A man in Trinidad and Tobago had to wait six years for his trial to be heard – he was arrested for possession of a pistol and six rounds of ammunition in September 2003 – Man freed after six-year trial. The firearm and bullets were sent to the Forensic Science Centre on 26 September 2003 and the Certificate of Analysis was dated 15 February 2007 – a total of 3 and a half years…but what have they been doing since then that delayed the final verdict?!  The article is silent on that point.
