She added that many people, including close relatives, have spotted the suspect.

"One or two people told me they saw him.

"We heard that he changed his name too.

"I do not know his new name.

"I have reached the point where I am not fighting about this. At some point, he would have to pay for what he did," Cassie said.

"I pray and fast often so at some point, my son will get his justice. How long again will he hide from you, me and the police? He cannot hide from God. It is hard for the family, and we are taking it one day at a time.

"We cannot bring back Russian."

Initially, the suspect was believed to have fled to Guyana.
