– Babita Sarjou’s mother
After spending almost six years wondering what happened to her daughter, Champa Seonarine says she can finally have a good night’s sleep having buried Babita Sarjou’s remains last Thursday at Kuru Kuru, Linden/ Soesdyke highway.
Sarjou, a mother of one, was laid to rest as her family and friends solemnly observed.
“I felt so good, I feel at ease now that I have buried Babita. I can now have a good night’s sleep,” Seonarine said in an interview yesterday.
The woman said that even after her daughter’s remains were found, she was still worried and anxious, but everything changed the day after the funeral.
“When she came home (her body) we took her upstairs and so, and then we went to the burial ground to bury her,” the woman noted.
“After six years, I am satisfied,” Seonarine said, while adding that the only thing she wants right now is to be reunited with Babita’s now 10-year-old son – this is the only connection she would ever have to the murdered woman.
Seonarine said that on the day of the funeral, her daughter’s body was taken to her grandson’s school so that he too could have said goodbye to his mother. She said the little boy was supposed to attend the funeral, but his father’s relatives refused to allow him to partake in Sarjou’s home-going service.
The funeral was planned after samples taken from Sarjou’s body and sent for testing overseas to confirm whether it was Sarjou’s body, were returned.
Back in May, detectives aided by recruits, dug for hours in a waterlogged area for the woman’s body.
They first located a rib-cage, in a three-foot-deep grave, that was dug three days before her body was placed there. They then located a skull, several bones, a pair of high-heeled shoes, a brassiere, and bits of clothing from the same spot.
For Babita’s murder, her estranged husband 38-year-old Sharadananda Narine, called ‘Anand’, and his alleged accomplice, Darel Pronton, called ‘Yankee’ are before the court.
