– Search for corpse continues

Kaieteur News – Leon Waddle, the suspect who had admitted to murdering Answar Stoll, 46, of Kuru Kururu, was yesterday remanded to prison after he appeared in court.
Waddle was charged for murder in the furtherance of robbery.
It is alleged that between November 15 and 16, 2020, Waddle killed Stoll at Dadrima Savanah, Kuru Kururu, Linden/Soesdyke Highway, and stole his belongings.
He was not required to plead to the indictable charge and is expected to re-appear in court next month for a report.
Meanwhile, cops are continuing efforts to locate Stoll’s remains.
According Crime Chief, Wendell Blanhum, another search was conducted on Wednesday in an area that Waddle had led them to. However, detectives turned up empty handed.
Nevertheless, Blanhum assured that cops are working relentlessly towards recovering Stoll’s remains.
Even though Waddle had admitted to the crime, he is hesitant to reveal where he disposed of the corpse. He had led detectives to an area on Sunday last, where they searched for five hours together with a sniffer dog, but all they found was a bed sheet with bloodstains.
Stoll had disappeared from his home on November 15, and his home was found ransacked with bloodstains on the wall. Police carried out investigations into his disappearance and subsequently learnt that he was murdered.
Guided by their belief that Waddle is the killer the police carried out a search for him. The suspect managed to hide from the police for some two months, until he was finally caught hiding out in a fowl pen.
