Ramesar wants nothing to do with Logan

Daisy Ramesar, 34, told Newsday yesterday that she didn’t want to have anything more to do with her estranged husband Johnny Logan, 42. She said: “All I want is my daughter (Candace) with me so that she can go to school with her brother and sister.” Candace is currently at home with her father while her siblings, Crystal and David, who were reunited with their mother just under a week ago, are now attending the Tunapuna Hindu School. In an earlier Newsday report, Logan accused Ramesar of abandoning their three children while he was working on an estate in Talparo. However Ramesar, extremely upset by the report, stated that Logan was not telling the truth. She added that she left their Malabar Branch Road house in Arima with the three children and went to live in Samaroo Village.

She also claimed that reports were made by her to both the Arima and Malabar Police Stations about Logan’s treatment of her. Then, while on an errand the day she moved, Logan, accompanied by some of his friends, went to her new home and took the children while a female relative looked on helplessly. Ramesar denied Logan’s charge that she was with someone else when she took the children and left their home. When contacted yesterday and told of Ramesar’s position, Logan, who at first insisted on sitting and talking things over with Ramesar, said he just didn’t want to fight the situation anymore. He then resignedly agreed that in the best interest of Candace, he would give serious thought to handing over the child to her mother, but on the condition that he has full visitation rights to his children. He also expressed grave concern about his children’s living conditions. However, when told that they were all with their mother alone in an apartment, he promised to sleep on the matter with a view to having Candace reconcile with her siblings.
