The family of a West Coast Berbice man are still seeking answers about his mysterious disappearance in August, 2000, and are now pleading with investigators to reopen the case.
Burchell Garrett, 74, a horse trainer, went missing on August 18, 2000, after venturing from his home in Armadale Village, West Berbice, to attend the High Court in New Amsterdam for a hearing in a land dispute case.
One of his daughters, Ena Garrett, 59, who is based overseas, recalled to Stabroek News in a recent interview that she received a phone call from one of her sisters, Shirley Garrett, who resided at the same property with their father, informing her that he had not returned home.
