At least five police officers became attorneys when they were called to the bar on Friday at the Hall of Justice in Port of Spain.

In the police service, a police can become a court prosecutor starting from the rank of sergeant.

However, notwithstanding one’s rank, a police officer can become a prosecutor once they are an attorney.
