THE wife of a missing Erin man is pleading for his safe return after he went missing Friday.
With tears in her eyes, Camille Myrin, 29, said her husband Jeremy Rampersad, 29, a labourer, went to lime with a friend on Friday and has not been seen since.
She said calls to his phone have gone straight to voicemail and she made a report to the police on Sunday.
Speaking to the media at her Partap Trace, Arena Village, home on Wednesday, Marin said, “I’m hoping for him to be okay and come back home alive. His children is missing him. I’m missing him.” She said they have a two-year-old son and a one-year-old daughter.
Myrin said her husband went to meet a friend Shammi Persad-Beharry, from School Road in Palo Seco, on Friday and both men have not been seen since.
She said Persad-Beharry’s relative also made a missing persons report to the police.
The hunters’ group Hard Grounds Get Soft has also joined the search for the two missing men.
AZPNews.com caught up with them at Quinam Beach Road, on Wednesday.
Head of the group Ren Gopeesingh said for the past few days they have been looking for the two men.
They have searched areas in Palo Seco, Penal and Siparia and have no clues, according to Gopeesingh.
He said this was a serious matter and the families of the missing men reached out to the volunteer group which informs the police of their whereabouts.
Gopeesingh said, “(They are) probably trapped or something. He’s alive. We don’t want that negative vibe.”
He said his group had about 40 members across the country and engage in search and rescue to keep fit since the hunting season was closed.
Gopeesingh said his group sometimes just listen to families in their time of need but was a voluntary group that offers assistance free of charge. – With reporting by Chantalé Fletcher, intern with AZPNews.com from the College of Science, Technology and Applied Arts of Trinidad and Tobago
