Twomen have appeared before a Rio Claro magistrate for the murder of a man whose charred remains were found on Pato Trace, Biche, on December 8.

Kimraj Ramcharan, 22, a mechanic, of La Salle Road, Biche, was charged with the murder of Regan Ramdhan, a 31-year-old businessman, of Shivan Drive, Sangre Chiquito.

Also appearing in court was Ramcharan’s neighbour Hashim Isahak, also known as Shawn, a labourer. Isahak is charged with the unlawful disposal of a body.

The men were charged on Friday by PC Collin Gillard, of the Homicide Bureau of Investigations, Region 2.

Ramdhan was reported missing to police on December 3 after he was last seen leaving his home the day before in his Toyota Hilux pick-up.

The van was found crashed into a wall in Mayaro and his burnt remains found five days later. Police said Ramdhan was killed during a dispute over money.
