Chief, Wendell Blanhum, confirmed that the police are still on the hunt for a 41-year-old man.
In an interview, Blanhum said that the Guyana Police Force (GPF) is still appealing for information about the whereabouts of Gary Mervin Primo, called ‘Gary Talkout.’
A wanted bulletin was issued for Primo in January.
It is believed that the two men were abducted by Primo, who continues to be one step ahead of the cops.
There are reports that the suspect may have fled the country after the two men disappeared but this could not be confirmed.
Williams, 28, and Anderson, 20, are said to have disappeared on September 10, 2015, after entering a silver-grey car in Bent Street, Georgetown. They had informed relatives that they were heading to a football match.
There are suggestions that their disappearance may be connected to a sum of money that one of the men had borrowed.
Williams’ mother, Desiree Carter, said that her son came to her Bent Street home that evening and collected two pairs of pants and a jersey. He indicated that he was going to a girlfriend in Sophia before heading to the
Missing: Ronson Williams
football match.
She said that when she looked out the window, it was to see that Williams was driving his friend’s car and Anderson was in the passenger seat. She has not seen him since.
Carter said that she reported the matter to the police since September 15 last, while Carmelita Anderson, the mother of Carlos Anderson, reported the matter on September 13 to the Alberttown Police Station
Mrs. Anderson recalled calling her son, on his cell phone that night. “Around nine o’clock he say he at Tasha (the detained man’s sister). After that the phone went to voicemail.”
She continued to receive a voicemail message up to December, when there were indications that the device was either disconnected or turned off.
Both mothers said that they had never heard anything unsavory about their sons. However, they both related hearing rumours about their sons over the past few months, ranging from claims that they had gone to Suriname, to claims that they had been murdered and their bodies burnt.
“A mother can’t know everything her son does,” Carmelita Anderson said. “But all I want to know is the truth. If he done something wrong, we all are human; we make mistakes. We want to know, because it has been close to four months. Even the car vanished.”
Investigations are ongoing.
