– relatives fear kidnapping
Relatives of 16 year-old Dashawna Small of Bagotville, West Bank Demerara, are hoping for her safe return after she went missing some two days ago.
Reports are that Small left her sister’s Bagotville home on Thursday last and has not been seen or heard from since.
However, Small’s relatives said they suspect that the teen is being held against her will.
According to Small’s sister, Theicia Arthur, ever since the teen’s disappearance, they have tried calling her mobile phone, but they never got any response.
However, the sister said they have been getting numerous text messages on the phone.
According to Theicia Arthur, all the text messages are directed to the child’s father.
“Hilton, this is between me and you … and you got to remember what goes around comes around,” one of the text messages, which Kaieteur News saw, stated.
There is also a voice mail that was left on another relative’s phone in which the teen is heard crying.
Arthur said they have since contacted a male friend of the missing teen, but he too says he hasn’t seen nor heard from her.
Instead, the male friend’s phone is also being bombarded by text messages, all directed to the child’s father, relatives said.
According to Theicia Arthur, the messages were shown to ranks at La Grange Police Station, who are treating the case as a kidnapping.
Arthur said she is unaware of any ‘bad business’ that the child’s father has been involved in that may have led to his daughter’s abduction.
She, however, informed this newspaper that the child’s father was somewhat reluctant to visit the police. As such, a message has reportedly been sent to the Vigilance Police Station requesting that the child’s father be arrested.
Arthur said the teen had resided with her father in Buxton.
The father still resides in the once crime-ridden village on the East Coast of Demerara.
Dashawna Small was last seen wearing a pair of light-blue jeans and a dark-blue jersey.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact the nearest police station or her relatives on telephone number, 687-6318.
