Vimo Ramkarran of 357 Section B Non Pariel, East Coast Demerara is convinced that her neighbours 19-year old son is responsible for the disappearance of her 15-year old daughter, Rebecca Devi.
The teenager disappeared since Monday last and has not been seen or heard from since then.
Ramkarran’s neighbour has also disappeared and since she suspects that her daughter is fond of the young man, there is every likelihood that they have eloped.
Speaking with this newspaper yesterday, Ramkarran revealed that her daughter had run away from home on a previous occasion.
However, she was brought back by a relative at whose house she sought refuge.
The woman, who operates a shop, said that she observed that her daughter who would be selling sometimes after school, would engage the neighbour in friendly conversations from time to time.
She believes that these conversations led to her under-aged daughter developing a relationship with the young man.
On Monday last, Ramkarran was out and when she returned home, her daughter was not there.
“This lil boy alone was at home and he tell me that she just pick up she bag and go away,” the woman recalled.
Family members were contacted and a missing person report was made at the Vigilance Police Station.
She said that at first she did not suspect that her daughter had eloped with the neighbour until his family contacted her.
“The people dem come over and say that dem son runaway with Rebecca and they want to marry. I say she is under age and I don’t know anything about that,” Ramkarran told Kaieteur News.
She said that the young man needs to bring her daughter back until she is of age to make her own decision.
“I think my neighbours know everything that is going on. They know whey they deh but they ain’t saying nothing because they know they son gon be in serious trouble because me daughter under age,” Ramkarran stated.
