Police are still investigating the disappearance of Police Constable Quincy
Lewis went missing six months ago.
Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum, when contacted stated that the investigation continues but he was unable to disclose any further details.
A relative had briefly related to this newspaper that his holidays will be gloomy without the missing man.
He explained that in an effort to bring some form of joy to Lewis’s mom, he would often find himself breaking the tense atmosphere by cracking a joke.
Nevertheless, he remains hopeful that Lewis will be found.
Stabroek News previously reported that while the rank has not yet been found, investigators were able to identify an area where a cellphone belonging to Lewis was found.
Lewis, 26, was last seen by his mother, Charlene Jordan, on June 19 as he was leaving to work the night shift at the Agricola Police Outpost.
Jordan had previously explained that she did not realise that anything was amiss until a few days later when she tried calling Lewis but got no answer.
“I noticed on [the 23rd of June] that he was missing… his friends come and ask for he and they calling he phone and it going to voicemail… when I call [his phone] he wasn’t picking up…then I know he didn’t go to work at all,” she recounted.
In July, the woman had said that the police informed her that Lewis was seen on CCTV footage crossing the Demerara Harbour Bridge after leaving their La Parfaite Harmonie home.
The investigation into Lewis’s disappearance is being led by the Force’s Missing Persons Unit. Two policing divisions, Region 3 and Region 4(A), are assisting with the probe.
Jordan had previously related to this newspaper that she was only aware of two issues that Lewis had. One arose a year ago when he rented a car for two days and it was damaged in an accident.
She said that she was not certain whether Lewis had indeed sorted out the problem with the owner of the car.
Just about a month ago, Jordan added, Lewis also related to her that one of his colleagues was holding a “grudge” against him. “He and some one ah them I think I had some misunderstanding. The persons, they holding grudge but he is not a person like duh so he say he don’t tek them on,” she said.
