Student back home for surgery

BATTERED ATHLETE Raphael Jordan is back home hoping to have surgery on his left eye.

He is expecting to have that operation later this week.

Jordan, who was attacked in a gym last Monday at the University of the West Indies, Mona campus in Jamaica where he is student, arrived on a Caribbean Airlines flight from Kingston yesterday evening.

He was scheduled to have surgery done there, but because of a backlog of patients along with other challenges, he was unable to be facilitated in a timely manner and was allowed to return to Barbados for treatment.
