Trinidad and Tobago: Police Probe Suspected Double Homicide After Mother and Daughter Die in Fire

Trinidad and Tobago: A mother and her teenage daughter were found dead following a fire that took place at their house in Malick, Trinidad and Tobago on Friday, October 16. This led to the launch of a police investigation into what is believed to be a double murder case.

The victims have been found to be 49-year-old Rosanna Ramlal, who is a Doubles vendor, and her 17-year-old daughter, Elena. The fire broke out in their house on Seventh Avenue shortly before 2 p.m.

Fire officers responded to the blaze and discovered the two bodies inside the house after the fire was extinguished. The authorities are trying to investigate the cause of the fire and the motive behind the killings.

It was revealed that a male relative had been detained by the police for questioning. The residents recognized a close male relative as being responsible for their demise. They said he was someone who indulged in drinking all the time.

However, it has not been established whether alcohol played any role in the incident. The nature of the event and possible charges have not yet been confirmed by the authorities.

While investigations suggest that the cause of their death may have been the fire, there are some speculations among the locals that the mother and her daughter were murdered before the house was set on fire.

Ramlal’s husband, Wesley Ramlal, is connected to Fats Doubles at Maraval Road in Port of Spain. Police said that he was away hunting in Rio Claro when the incident took place.

Residents of Malick have been shocked by the deaths, as condolences are offered to the family. Investigations into the incident remain ongoing.

Police are asking the public for any information that may assist in determining the events that led to the fire.
