Missing St Cuthbert’s man found at Mahaicony River farm

May 16, 2013 News

The 23-year-old man from St Cuthbert’s Mission who had been reported as missing since April 26 last has been reunited with his family.
Toshao of St. Cuthbert’s Mission, Luke Simon, said that Jermaine Dundas, also called Cow, who had disappeared from a house at Little Biaboo, Mahaica late last month, was found at a farm on the bank of the Mahaicony River where he had apparently been persuaded to work as a labourer.
Dundas was found after a Mahaica River resident detained by the Police in connection with his disappearance had told relatives where he could be found.
Simon said that the man was located over the weekend and was back home with his relieved parents by Monday afternoon.
Dundas was said to have disappeared late April when he and five other residents of St. Cuthbert’s Mission on the Mahaica River travelled from the Mission to Little Biaboo Creek, also on the Mahaica River, to sell logs.
According to reports, after they had finished their business, Dundas and his companions attended a wedding reception at Little Biaboo.
Around 4.30 hours the next day when the others were ready to leave, his companions said, they failed to locate him.
They later found a jersey and a pair of slippers which he was wearing at the wedding under a house where they had sought lodging.
They also found his haversack with all his other clothing inside, undisturbed.
His companions reported his disappearance to the Mahaica Police Station and then subsequently to the Police Station at St. Cuthbert’s Mission. They were arrested, interrogated and then released.
Simon said that Dundas had apparently been persuaded to travel to Mahaicony Creek by three drinking companions at the wedding house and had neglected to inform anyone.
On being confronted, the owner of the farm where Dundas was found handed over $24,000 which he said the man had worked for during the period he had been reported missing.
