Still no sign of missing Mocha woman
It has been 14 days since 81-year-old Mocha broom vendor, Margaret Harris, disappeared, and her family members are expressing dissatisfaction with efforts by the police to locate her.
The missing broom vendor
Harris, of Lot 274 Cemetery Road, Mocha, left her East Bank Demerara home at around 13:30hrs on November 16, to visit her farm, which is located at the back of her village, but never returned.
Yesterday, the woman’s daughter, Lynette Gilbert, said that since they made the missing person’s report, the police only visited the farm once and that was on November 17.
The woman also explained that whenever her mother left for her farm, she would normally take two of her dogs with her. Three days after the woman disappeared, one of the dogs returned to a relative’s home. The other one returned last Saturday.
She claimed that her mother never disappeared from her home before. The broom vendor has lived with her granddaughter and great grandchildren for years.
Gilbert said she as well as her other relatives believe that Harris is out there somewhere and they are trying their best to locate her.
The 81-year-old was last seen wearing a blue floral top with a straw hat. Anyone who may have some information about the woman’s whereabouts can contact her family on 233-2000, 677-0680, 699-8764, 217-0338 or call the nearest police station.
