gruesome case of the murder and dismemberment of a Canadian English teacher in New Taipei City, it has been revealed that the deceased teacher had become a major supplier of cannabis in the city, thanks in large part to his “marijuana farm,” reports ETtoday.
Though police initially suspected 43-year-old Canadian English teacher-turned drug dealer Sanjay Ryan Ramgahan (顏柏萊) was murdered by 30-year-old African-American male Ewart Odane Bent and 37-year-old Israeli-American tattoo artist Oren Shlomo Mayer, also known as “Oz Diamond” because they believed Ramgahan was working as an informant for the police, they now believe another motivation for the murder was the possession of his massive “marijuana farm.” Police do not rule out the possibility that rather than fleeing to the Philippines with his accomplice Mayer, Bent opted to stay behind in hopes that he could take over Ramgahan’s marijuana fields.
As the investigation into Ramgahan’s murder enters its second week, they have revealed that he was a major supplier of marijuana in northern Taiwan. Members of the investigation team disclosed that Ramgahan had a relatively large-scale marijuana growing operation which enabled him to maintain a steady stream of the illicit drug he was providing to his buyers.
