POLICE have two persons in custody who are being questioned about the disappearance of 25-year-old Guyana Energy Agency (GEA) employee Levoy Taljit.
A source told the Guyana Chronicle that the men were detained at different times but both may be connected to the missing man. The first was picked up Wednesday and, in his response to questions from investigators, he seemed to know quite a lot and may be of much help in the probe, this newspaper was informed.
That man of interest to the police was still being detained up to late Thursday.
Meanwhile, another man, for whom the police were searching along the Soesdyke/Linden Highway, was found in the Pomeroon district on Thursday afternoon and transported to Georgetown yesterday to be interrogated.
However, it is still not known whether the police have made any breakthrough in their investigations. Up to now, they have been able to recover only the missing man’s motor car.
The vehicle had been hidden amongst thick vegetation along the Soesdyke/Linden Highway and its battery and a tape deck were not in place. In addition, fingerprints taken from the recovered property have not been helpful.
Taljit was last seen by members of his family when he left his Anira Street, Queenstown, Georgetown home on December 23 and, since then, they have not heard from him and calls to his mobile phone have gone unanswered.
The family is trying to ascertain what may have led to his disappearing mysteriously as they are not aware of him being involved in any unsavoury practices, citing his lifestyle that suggests he would not attract negativity from persons with whom he dealt.
This publication was told that relatives have made some of their own inquiries about Taljit’s activities when he is not around them. It was noted that, even though he was a field supervisor and had the powers to effect property seizures in keeping with his job description at the GEA, those had to be approved by persons above his level.
He was not defaulting on payment for his vehicle, either, as his installments were up to date.
