The law enforcement officers have further maintained that Ramdyal had fled the jurisdiction to neighbouring Venezuela and often changed her identity.While police are maintaining their side of the story (case), Anita Persaud,  Ramdyal’s mother, is maintaining that her daughter was never charged or never received any summons to attend court. Persaud is further alleging that her daughter was never informed by the police to attend court.She said her daughter worked with one Lalbachan, the owner of “Big Bird”, for little over a year almost eight years ago and had been interviewed several times by police officers at Charity.Subsequently, after it was reported by Lalbachan that over $100,000 worth of items went missing from his store.After those two visits to the station on separate occasions, Persaud said that her daughter remained on the Coast and even revisited one of the stations to deal with a separate issue.The angry mother said that her daughter was arrested on Friday last and taken to the Aurora Police station.On Saturday last, three women after learning of Ramydal’s plight visited the Aurora police station but were not allowed to visit the incarcerated woman.
