Non Pareil murder/suicide…Couple to be cremated today
The couple found dead in their Non Pareil, East Coast Demerara home last Sunday as a result of a murder/ suicide will be cremated today, according to relatives.
The bodies will first be taken to their Lot 165 North ‘D’ Non Pareil Housing Scheme home before going to their respective parents’ residences.
At around 21:00hrs, relatives found the bodies of 28-year-old Nandanie Mohan called Michelle on the couple’s bed with a sheet wrapped around her neck while her husband, Vickram Ramdin was discovered dangling from a rafter, just above her at their home.
From all indications, the father of two had strangled his wife and then hanged himself.
Dead: Nandanie Mohan and Vickram Ramdin
The bodies were discovered by Mohan’s mother, Lachmin, who had gone to the house to check up on the couple.
Recalling what happened on that fateful night, the dead woman’s mother said early Sunday she tried numerous times to contact her daughter and son-in-law but failed.
Accompanied by another daughter, Simone and the dead couple’s 11-year-old son, Omardat Ramdin, went to her daughter’s house.
“The two children does live by me, so I carry they son with us. When we reach, the son take a stick and he was hitting the flooring and saying, ‘Mommy, Daddy wake up,’ but no one answered and the place was locked up.”
She added that she started asking neighbours if they saw the couple.
“People say that they see them a little before 06:00hrs on Saturday walking. They say he had an umbrella sheltering her and they were hugging and walking,” the grieving mother recalled.
The woman added that after talking to neighbours, as she was heading back to her daughter’s home, she heard a loud scream.
“My daughter got into the house and she tell me that Nandanie dead and deh on the bed and Vickram deh hang up.”
The police were called in and the bodies were removed from the home.
However, relatives of Vickram Ramdin said that the 31-year-old might have committed the act because his wife of 11 years was cheating on him.
Rajnarine Ramdin, the brother of the dead man said “She was working at a snackette at Mon Repos market and a lot of men used to go and drink there and he (his brother) used to go there and drink, and like he see things too. Like it get overbearing and he trip,” the brother opined.
The couple was supposed to attend the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court last Monday for a domestic matter.
