The 37-year-old father was shot outside the Engen garage he owned, called Glazer Motors, on South Coast Road last month.  

He was talking to a friend when an unknown gunman approached the pair, shot Ramjettan and fled. It has been almost a month but police say no arrests have been made yet.

"The father is very traumatised. He is 80-years-old. Sometimes, he just looks at the video and bursts out crying. The mother is also very traumatised," Ramjettan's cousin, Prethun Bechan said.

Bechan says they just want answers.

"The family is at a dead end at the moment. The idea of offering a reward was to get some sort of idea of what could have been the cause of such a callous murder. He was a simple man who led a simple life," he adds. 

Anyone who does have information can contact their nearest police station.
