The Colombian city of Medellin was a dangerous place in the 1990s as Camilo Andres Jaramillo knows all too well. He was shot nine times during an attack by gunmen but miraculously survived ... and what he did next is even more extraordinary – he now works as a mortician. He tells Anu Anand why his job brings him peace. Image and credit: Camilo Andres Jaramillo
