Disturbing details on the brutal murder of Jenny Mohamed called ‘Baby’, a 48-year-old woman of Non-Pariel, East Coast Demerara have emerged. Police Headquarters revealed that Mohamed was stabbed and strangled by her daughter and son-in-law, then placed into a garbage bag and dumped in a trench.
The couple then proceeded to clean up the blood-stained crime scene. Jenny was reported missing on June 12. Following the report, on June 13, a team of Police ranks from the Vigilance Police Station visited the residence and a physical check was made around the yard.
“No disturbed soil was observed, and nearby persons were questioned, but no useful information was obtained,” the Police reported.

The woman’s sister revealed that they communicated daily and that she last spoke with Jenny on June 10. This was also the last time her husband, Rasheed Mohamed, reportedly saw her alive.
After the sister could not reach her, Rasheed told her [the sister] that Jenny and their daughter, 25-year-old Saffia Mohamed had an argument on June 9 during which Jenny told her daughter to move out.
Rasheed claimed that he left for work the next morning, leaving his wife with Saffia and Austin Ramchand, Saffia’s 28-year-old husband.
About a week later, on June 16, following further information, a Police team revisited the Mohamed’s residence and upon entering, discovered suspected bloodstains on a couch, walls, and floor of the hall.

Further stains were found in a northeastern bedroom and kitchen.
It appeared as though efforts were made to clean blood that stained those areas. A human blood field test was conducted and returned positive results. The residence was secured for forensic examination, and Jenny’s husband was detained.
Based on further information on Tuesday, June 17, ranks from the Vigilance Police Station conducted a cordon and search operation within the Vigilance Police Station District.
During the exercise, Ramchand and Saffia were arrested and placed in custody.
Also on June 17, a forensic team returned to the residence and confirmed multiple areas within the home tested positive for human blood.

A handwritten note, allegedly from Jenny, was also found inside a notebook. The note was, however, deemed suspicious due to the contents.
“Clean-up attempts were observed, and potential evidence, including blood-stained upholstery and swabs, were collected. A vehicle associated with the suspects was also examined, and strands of hair were recovered for testing,” the police said.
Police said conflicting accounts about what happened to Jenny were revealed during interviews with Jenny’s husband, her daughter and son-in-law.
Other relatives were also interviewed and gave additional information to support the case of murder.
On June 19, nine days after Jenny went missing, Saffia and Ramchand confessed that they stabbed Jenny, strangled her with a rope, wrapped her body in a garbage bag and tarpaulin, and then dumped her in a trench along Eccles New Road, East Bank Demerara.
Saffia then led investigators to the dump site, where the decomposed body was recovered, bearing multiple stab wounds and a rope tied around the neck – all of which was done under video and audio recording. The scene was processed and documented.
All three suspects remain in custody as investigations continue, and a file is being put together for legal advice to be sought.
