Do you know the family? Rudy Narayan lived in Woodbourne Ave where I live and residents do talk about his sister, also a barrister I believe. I can ask if anyone knows

Hi Mark - I used to work with Vic back in the early 80s/90s and I just wondered what became of him. I remember he retired around 1986ish. It was when he & I worked at the Home Office in London.
