Police issue wanted bulletin for suspect in murder of US-based Guyanese

As investigations into the murder of US-based Guyanese Hemraj Pardessi intensify, the Police late Friday evening stated that another person is being sought for the heinous crime and as such, a wanted bulletin was issued for his arrest.
The wanted man is 32-year-old Jason Isaacs of Lot 18 Bristol Street, East Canje, Berbice.

Wanted: Jason Isaacs

The Police are asking anyone with information that can lead to the arrest of Isaacs to contact them on telephone numbers 226-7065, 225-3650, 226-1928, 911 or the nearest Police station.
Pardessi, 60, was killed shortly before midnight on Tuesday at his Reliance Settlement, East Canje home.
One of the five persons currently in custody for the murder has since confessed to robbing the elderly man. Police had initially arrested four suspects – three men aged 22, 28, and 31, and a 36-year-old female. This publication was told that the suspects include two of the dead man’s relatives.
However, based on an intelligence-led investigation, detectives apprehended a fifth suspect in the Canje Creek and backlands. That suspect, who is known to the Police and had been found guilty in 2019 of the robbery of a Chinese supermarket, was released from prison about seven months ago.
It was reported that the suspect was interrogated, during which he told investigators that he had held down Pardessi, but did not injure him. However, he implicated another person, whom he told investigators had hit Pardessi to the head and strangled him.
As such, Police are continuing the hunt for the sixth suspect.
The cops were also on the hunt for the wife of the convicted robber, whom it is believed had lured the victim out of his yard, allowing the perpetrators to gain entry into the man’s home. This female suspect reportedly lives opposite Pardessi’s home.
On Friday, days after the murder, she reportedly turned herself in to ranks of the Central Police Station in Berbice
