Authorities Seek Escapee in Connection with Murder of Boat Operator

News

Authorities are actively searching for 26-year-old Aleeba Anthony London, who was arrested in connection with the murder of 40-year-old boat operator Ryan Fredericks but has since escaped from lawful custody.

London, who last resided at Lot 74, Second Street, Kaneville Grove, East Bank Demerara, is wanted for both murder and escape. Police are urging anyone with information regarding his whereabouts to contact them at various numbers, including 227-1149, 225-8196, and 333-3876, or visit the nearest police station.

Fredericks, a resident of Mongrippa Hill, Bartica, was found dead on the night of August 28, 2025, in a room at the Safari Inn Hotel in Friendship, East Bank Demerara, following an alleged robbery. He had checked into the hotel around 5:45 PM with an unidentified woman, accompanied by fellow boat operator 38-year-old Navindra Kanhai.

According to police reports, Fredericks and Kanhai met the woman at Parika earlier that day and traveled together to the Safari Inn, where two rooms were booked—one for Kanhai and another for Fredericks and the woman.

Investigators revealed that between 11:00 and 11:30 PM, Fredericks knocked on Kanhai’s hotel room door, bleeding from a severe wound to his left arm. He reportedly told Kanhai that he had been “robbed and chopped.” Emergency Medical Technicians were summoned, but Fredericks was pronounced dead before their arrival.

A post-mortem examination is pending at Memorial Gardens Funeral Home. Kanhai remains in police custody assisting with the investigation, while efforts continue to locate the unidentified woman.

Police emphasize that London is considered dangerous and are appealing to the public for urgent assistance in capturing him.
