Nude body of woman, 63, found floating in trench

Aug 31, 2011 News

 

Detectives on the East Coast of Demerara are almost convinced that foul play was involved in the death of 63-year-old Pulmattie Ramai, whose nude body was pulled from the Cane Grove Crown Dam trench on Monday night.
The woman, who resided at 43 Saywah, Cane Grove, was discovered lying in the trench by her nephew who was part of a search party that had combed the backlands of the village after she did not return home on Monday afternoon.
Reports reaching this newspaper stated that Ramai, a pensioner and fish vendor, left her home around 07:00 hours for her customary fishing expedition in the Cane Grove backlands.
When she did not return her relatives became worried and launched a search for her.
They eventually found her lifeless body around 22:00 hours.
Ramai’s fish hook with line, a black skirt and her pink underwear were found about 100 feet on a dam from where her body was found.
Investigators are working on a theory that Ramai was raped and murdered. However, they are awaiting a post mortem examination which will be performed on the woman’s remains today, to determine the way forward.
