Mark Newey retires from policing next month
One of the Island's long-standing police officers says it was "humbling" to receive an award celebrating his contribution to the force.
Detective Chief Inspector Mark Newey was recognised for the most outstanding performance in the fields of police service at the Chief Constable's annual award ceremony.
He's set to retire from the force next month.
DCI Newey has led a number of high profile cases throughout his career, including the investigation into the death of Carolyn Buchan in March 2022.
He's been reflecting on receiving the award:
