The disturbing trend of missing schoolgirls had a sad end for one family when a 15-year-old was found frothing on the doorsteps of a church a short distance from her home in Barrackpore yesterday. She subsequently died.
In another case, however, two college students, missing since last Friday, have been found and are now back home with their families.
Police are treating the death of Rehana Tisha Nandlal, 15, of Hassanali Trace South, Lower Barrackpore, as a suicide since a bottle containing a poisonous substance was found next to her body on the steps of the Gospel Lighthouse IPA Four Square Affiliate Church in Barrackpore. Nandlal was pronounced dead on arrival at the San Fernando General Hospital.
She was a Form Three student of the Barrackpore West Secondary School. Nandlal was said to be involved in a relationship with a
42-year-old man, who is reported to be an employee of the school. Her knapsack, which was found near her body, contained a final letter written to the man. Part of it read, “Well today is our last day seeing each other. Babe, I will miss you so much but I will always have you in my mind. I printed a picture of myself for you. I know my image does sometimes get lost in your head, so this time it won’t. Enjoy your long vacation, be safe, do everything positive, think of me and just keep on smiling.”
In the letter, Nandlal spoke about plans to marry the man and of them having two boys.
Nandlal’s form teacher, who gave her name as Miss Hamilton, said the teenage girl was one of her best students. Miss Hamilton visited the girl’s family and offered her support.
Police report that, at about 11 am yesterday, a neighbour found Nandlal lying on the steps of the church and called the ambulance. She was rushed to hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Nandlal’s parents are dead and she has been living with her sister Tara Nandlal, her legal guardian, for the past 18 months.
Nandlal was questioned last Saturday by officers of the Barrackpore Police Station about her relationship with the school employee. According to reports, the school had alerted the police about the relationship and an investigation began.
Nandlal was accompanied to the station by Tara. The girl denied being involved with the employee, police said.
Tara told Newsday she confronted her sister on Monday about her relationship with the school employee after she found her diary. She said Nandlal became angry when she accused her of lying to the officers.
Tara said, “She just packed her bag and left. We searched for her all night and couldn’t find her. We were in San Fernando today (yesterday) when we got a call to come to the hospital.”
She described her sister as someone with a bright future.
Police have since seized a diary from Nandlal’s room which they said contained intimate details of her relationship. She began recording her activities with the man on February 26 and the last entry was written on June 30. A senior officer said the investigation is continuing since the school employee is reported to have had similar encounters with another female student. The employee had also denied to the police that he was involved with Nandlal. In another new report, police yesterday stated that Shantal Roysan Nelson, 15, left her home in Penal on July 13 and has not returned. She has however contacted her mother Natasha Sam, 29, and did so a second time yesterday. Nelson is a student of the Penal Secondary School.
Sam told Newsday her daughter, who first contacted the family three days after she went missing, has refused to tell them of her of whereabouts.
Sam said, “She has several sim cards so if she calls me on one number, by the time I try to call I get no answer. She tells me she is not returning home.”
Meanwhile ASJA Girls’ College students Sureka Candice Lalloo, 17, of Lalloo Trace, Claxton Bay, Aishah Ali, 17, of Circular Street, Princes Town were found yesterday safe and sound in the Chaguaramas area.
A relative said the families were grateful the girls were found alive and unharmed. He praised Cpls Donald Flaggs and Anthony Wolfie of the Special Crime Unit of the St Margaret’s Police Station and the Anti Kidnapping Unit who worked tirelessly since the girls went missing last Friday. They were last seen at the Gulf City Mall in La Romaine.
The relative said, “They were spotted in the Chaguaramas area by a soldier who alerted the police.”
Another worried mother Martha Paul of Fifth Company Village, Moruga said she is still to hear or see her 14-year-old daughter, Moesha, who was last seen in a car in the company of two young men.
The Penal men were detained for three days but were subsequently released. Paul told Newsday police are still trying to find her daughter.
“I find it is taking very long because she is somewhere out there and people are seeing her.
Please call the police,” she said.
