Police issue wanted bulletins for 4 men

The Guyana Police Force (GPF) has issued wanted bulletins for three men in connection with separate criminal offences, including felonious wounding, rape of a minor, and drug trafficking.
In separate notices circulated by Police, members of the public are being urged to assist with information that could lead to the arrest of the suspects.
Police are seeking the whereabouts of Mahendra Rampersaud, a 32-year-old man, in connection with the offence of felonious wounding.
Rampersaud’s last known address is listed as Lot 321, Mon Repos, East Coast Demerara. The offence was allegedly committed on May 16, and Police records indicate that the incident involved a woman identified as Felicia Ann Dharamjit-Rampersaud.

According to reports, the 30-year-old mother of two claims she is living in fear after she was stabbed and her son was injured during a violent dispute with Rampersaud.
The woman said she separated from her husband three months before the incident and moved with their two sons, aged 11 and nine, to her parents’ home on the East Coast Demerara. On the day of the incident, while the man was dropping the children off, an argument erupted after he accused her of infidelity and spreading false claims about him. She denied the accusations, after which he allegedly became enraged and attacked her with a knife.
During the assault, the woman sustained two stab wounds to her neck and cuts to her hand while trying to defend herself. Their older son was also injured while attempting to intervene and suffered cuts to his hand.
Both mother and child were taken to medical facilities, where they received treatment and were later discharged. The attacker fled the scene after the incident.

Rape of a child
In a separate matter, Police have issued a wanted bulletin for Deraj Ali, a 21-year-old man who is wanted for the offence of rape of a child under the age of 16 years.
Ali’s last known address is recorded as Huntley Village, Mahaicony, East Coast Demerara. Police did not disclose further details surrounding the investigation but noted that the matter remains under active inquiry.

Narco trafficking
Police are also searching for Shaquille Anthony Durant, also known as “Shaka”, in connection with the offence of possession of narcotics for the purpose of trafficking.
Durant was born on December 29, 1995, and his last known addresses include Lot 29 Howard Alley, New Amsterdam, Berbice, and Grove Village, East Bank Demerara. The alleged offence reportedly occurred on December 2.
Durant is no stranger to the law. In 2017, he was among two young men who were arrested in relation to a quantity of marijuana discovered on the #4 Public Road on Tuesday, February 07, 2017.
According to reports, the discovery was made by Police on mobile patrol who saw motor vehicle PVV 8155 stopping and discarding a bag some 200 ft away in a clump of bushes after noticing the patrol.
One of the officers then proceeded to the location and picked up and examined the bag in the presence of the driver of the car, 22-year-old Troyden Trellis, and passenger, 22-year-old Shaquille Durant of New Amsterdam. It was found to have a bulky parcel wrapped with transparent plastic containing leaves, seeds, and stems suspected to be marijuana. As such, the men were taken into custody.

Reports further indicate that the men were told of the offence committed, then cautioned and taken to the Fort Wellington Police Station, where the items were weighed in their presence and amounted to 509 grams.
The GPF is urging anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Mahendra Rampersaud, Deraj Ali, or Shaquille Anthony Durant to contact the Police immediately.
Persons can make contact via telephone numbers 225-6940, 225-8196, 220-2222, 226-7476, 225-2317, or 227-1149, or report to the nearest Police station.
