Mystery surrounds missing Guyanese man
(CNS): The RCIPS confirmed Friday that the two women arrested by police on Wednesday in connection with a missing person case are still in custody. A police spokesperson also confirmed that Hemerson Raymond Gonzalez, who disappeared in December, is still missing. No further information has been released in the mysterious case, in which the two women were arrested for two separate offences following an operation in the Savannah area. A 25-year-old woman was arrested at an address in Canyon Dawn Drive, where Gonzales was said to be staying before he disappeared, on suspicion of being concerned in the possession of controlled drugs with intent to supply.
A second 19-year-old woman was arrested in Prospect on suspicion of misleading the police and conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
Gonzalez, a 31-year-old Guyanese national, arrived in Cayman, where he is a regular visitor, on Sunday, 9 December. He was last seen on Tuesday, 11 December, at about 5:30pm.
Despite extensive police searches, Gonzalez has not been found. He speaks with a Guyanese accent, is about 5’ 8” tall, with a dark brown complexion and curly black hair. He weighs about 180lbs, has a tattoo of a compass on his left forearm and writing tattooed on the inside of his left wrist. When last seen he was wearing brown jeans shorts, a t-shirt and blue low cut cloth shoes. At the time of his disappearance, police said that Gonzalez was feeling ill and had been suffering from severe vomiting. Checks with local hospitals have confirmed that he has not sought medical attention for his illness.
The lead investigating officer on the missing person case is Detective Sergeant Charmane Huntley, who can be reached at George Town Police Station Criminal Investigation Department 9494222.
The RCIPS Major Incident Room has been activated at the George Town Police Station. Anyone with information can call 925-7240 or 926-3975. Police have also created an e-mail account to allow people to send information on-line directly to the incident room HemersonGonzalez@hotmail.com

The tickets to and from Gayana is very high and not too many Gayanese can afford to travel in the manner he did. Somthing for the Police to think about.. This matter of missing people is now too often and as a Caymanian am very concern knowing that you can go missing on such a small island.
Look at the US where people go missing every day and they have a good recovery record.
Come on Cayman, I never even heard of a search party or seeking volunteers to come out and search. SHAME ON YOU RCIP and the CAYMANIAN WHO SIT BACK AND ACCEPT THIS AS NORMAL.
Whats the connection with the arrest of these two females and the disappearance of Hemerson? I don't get it – Its a sad situation in any case and I hope he is found so his family can finally have some rest.
The question arises–why was he visiting the island so much?
Good question!
