Woman’s bound body found in Plaisance home

Aug 09, 2014 News

The bound and battered body of a 57-year-old woman was discovered at around 21.00 hrs last night in her Lot 41, Prince William Street, Plaisance home.
Police said that Ann Jennifer Mendonca’s son found her lying in her bed. Her hands were bound with duct-tape and a black plastic bag was tied around her head, which was covered by two pillows.
Police believe that the killer (s) gained entry via Mrs. Mendonca’s back door, which she may have left open while working in her kitchen.
According to reports, the victim’s son left for work at around 03.00 hrs yesterday. His mother was reportedly still alive when he called around noon. However, at around 21.00 hrs, the son reportedly received calls from neighbours, who said that all of the lights in his mother’s house were off.
The son immediately hurried home and found his mother’s body. The house was ransacked and a gold chain and ring, along with a DVD player, were missing.
Kaieteur News understands that police are questioning a man with whom the victim had a recent dispute, but sources said that investigators have found nothing to implicate him.
