Couple wanted by cops, months after Prospect woman vanishes
Almost five months after 37-year-old Shawnette Savory went missing, when she left her Lot 222
WANTED: Ritesha Rahaman called ‘Tesha’
Prospect, East Bank Demerara apartment, the Guyana Police Force has issued a wanted bulletin for a 25-year-old woman and her husband.
The cops believed that the couple may have information that could help them in finding Savory.
In the bulletin, the police said that Patrick Kissoon called “Pato” and Ritesha Rahaman called “Tesha” are wanted for questioning in relation to the disappearance of Savory, which occurred on August 30, last.
Kissoon and his wife are of East Indian descent and their last known addresses are Herstelling Sea Dam, East Bank Demerara and Belle West, West Bank Demerara.
Kaieteur News understands that Savory was last seen alive in the company of the couple. She and Rahaman were friends.
When the police had expressed their interest in questioning the couple, they immediately moved from their Belle West home, where it was initially believed that the woman had been killed and buried in the concrete floor. However, ranks went to the area and broke the concrete but found no evidence that would lead to the discovery of the woman.
The police had arrested three persons, including Kissoon’s mother, his brother and Rahaman’s sibling, but they failed to provide information on the suspects’ whereabouts.
There are reports that the couple was hiding out in Berbice and there is another report that they
have fled the jurisdiction.
The cops were unable to get a photograph of Patrick Kissoon, because he never registered to get a National Identification Card or a Passport.
Shawnette Savory was last seen alive by her relatives on August 28 last, when she attended a birthday party. She disappeared two days later after leaving to pay an electricity bill.
