Almost two years since a Prospect , East Bank  Demerara mother disappeared , a 34 year- old- man was on Thursday  remanded to prison for allegedly murdering the woman.

On Thursday  Devindra Ramdiah also known as “Duck Man” ,appeared before  Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court and was charged with the murder of 37-year-old  Shawnette Savory.

It is  alleged that on 30 August, 2016 at Soesdyke, East Bank Demerara  the man killed the woman.

The former Demerara Distellers Limited (DDL) employee who resides at Lot 186,Fourth Street,Prospect  was not required to plea to the charge. He was remanded to prison.

The police prosecutor told the court that the file is still incomplete and the matter was adjourned until May 24, 2018.

The lawmen are still to locate the woman’s  body and  reports are that the suspect may  have buried the woman’s remains at Soesdyke. Police have been following several leads as they investigated the woman’s disappearance.

Last week investigators reopened the case after new information surfaced which suggested that Savory was killed by Ramdiah who is said be an ex-lover.

Last Wednesday and Friday, investigators visited Savory’s former  residence as they searched for clues and on Monday April 23, 2018, the police accompanied by the former boyfriend visited his Lot 186 Fourth Street, Prospect, EDB residence.

During that visit, at least six holes were dug  in the yard, reportedly in search of the mother of one. On Tuesday this  week, police ranks revisited the residence of Savory’s former boyfriend.The boyfriend resided at the location with his mother and sister.

However, the two relatives relocated after police visited the premises.

When the Guyana Chronicle visited the former boyfriend’s residence, it was clear that no one was at home in the building which seems to have been newly constructed or rehabilitated.

Last week police also arrested a taxi driver who resides at Prospect.The man who they suspect last transported the woman and her ex-lover, was subsequently  released on bail.

In December 2016, police dug-up the foundation of a one-bedroom shack at Belle West ,Canal Number Two ,West Bank Demerara as they searched for the woman.The whole day operation  proved futile.

On  August  29,2016, Savory, a mother one went missing.She was last seen at Eccles on the East Bank of Demerara. The woman worked at a toilet paper factory in Diamond prior to her disappearance.
