The Daughter Of Jenny Mohamed And Her Common-law Partner Were Today (Tuesday) Formally Charged With Her Brutal Murder, Following A Shocking Turn In What Initially Began As A Missing Person Investigation.
Austin Ramchand, A 24-year-old Auto Electrician, And Saffia Mohamed, A 23-year-old Housewife—both Of Lot 304 Mon Repos, East Coast Demerara—were Arrested On June 16, 2025. They Appeared Before Magistrate Sunil Scarce At The Vigilance Magistrate’s Court And Were Not Required To Plead To The Capital Offence. Both Were Remanded To Prison Until August 4, 2025.
The Victim, 46-year-old Jenny Mohamed, Also Known As “baby,” Resided At Lot 368, Section ‘d’, Non Pareil, East Coast Demerara. She Was Last Seen By Her Husband, Rasheed Mohamed, At Approximately 6:15 A.m. On Tuesday, June 10, 2025. A Missing Person Report Was Filed Two Days Later, On June 12, After Jenny’s Sister Expressed Concern Over The Lack Of Contact—something Uncharacteristic Of Her.
Initial Checks By Police On June 13 Yielded No Signs Of Disturbance Around The Home. However, Investigators Learned Of A Family Dispute The Night Before Jenny’s Disappearance. Her Husband Claimed That On June 9, Jenny Had A Heated Argument With Their Daughter, Reportedly Telling Her To Move Out Of The House.
According To Mr. Mohamed, He Left For Work The Next Morning, Leaving Jenny At Home With Their Daughter And Her Common-law Husband.
On June 16, After Receiving Further Intelligence, Investigators Returned To The Non Pareil Residence. There, They Observed Suspected Bloodstains On The Couch, Walls, And Floor—some Appearing To Have Been Partially Cleaned. Additional Traces Were Found In A Bedroom And The Kitchen. Forensic Tests Confirmed The Presence Of Human Blood, Prompting Authorities To Secure The Home As A Crime Scene. Jenny’s Husband Was Taken Into Custody For Questioning.
The Following Day, June 17, Police Arrested The Couple’s Daughter And Her 28-year-old Common-law Husband During A Search Operation. Both Were Detained At The Vigilance Police Station. Forensic Teams Recovered Blood-stained Furniture, Swabs, And Strands Of Hair From A Vehicle Linked To The Suspects.
A Handwritten Note, Believed To Be From The Victim, Was Discovered In A Notebook At The Home, But Its Suspicious Content Raised Red Flags. Meanwhile, Inconsistencies In The Suspects’ Accounts Of Jenny’s Whereabouts Deepened Suspicions.
On June 19, Under Intense Interrogation, Jenny’s Daughter Confessed To The Murder. She Admitted That On The Morning Of June 10, She And Her Partner Stabbed And Strangled Her Mother With A Rope. They Then Wrapped The Body In A Garbage Bag And Tarpaulin Before Dumping It In A Trench Along Eccles New Road, East Bank Demerara.
She Later Led Police To The Dump Site, Where Investigators Recovered Jenny’s Decomposed Body, Which Bore Multiple Stab Wounds And Had A Rope Tied Around Her Neck. The Discovery Was Documented On Video And Audio.
The Daughter’s Common-law Husband Subsequently Confirmed His Role In The Killing And Disposal Of The Body During A Confrontation With Investigators.
This Tragic Case, Which Began As A Missing Person Report On June 12, Has Now Become A Full-scale Murder Investigation. Authorities Have Confirmed That Jenny Mohamed Was Killed At Her Home On June 10 By Her Own Daughter And Her Daughter’s Partner. Both Have Since Been Charged, While Jenny’s Husband Was Initially Detained And Later Released As The Investigation Narrowed In On The Couple.
Police Are Continuing Their Investigations, And A File Is Being Compiled For Further Legal Advice. The Nation Remains Shocked By The Brutal Nature Of The Crime, Which Has Left An Entire Community Grieving.
