Fiancée of Brit Sean Patterson begged him not to go to Jamaica as she had ‘bad feeling’ before he was shot by ‘assassin’
THE fiancée of a murdered Brit begged him not to go to Jamaica before he was shot dead, his mum revealed.
Heartbroken Anuja Pradhan had “a bad feeling” about Sean Patterson’s last-minute holiday because of previous attacks on him in Britain, Lesley Wright said.
Personal trainer Sean, 33, from West London, was shot dead with 12 bullets at the guest house he was staying in on Monday two days after arriving in Jamaica.
Mum Lesley, 63, told The Sun: “Anuja said ‘you can’t do this’. She told him not to go. She said ‘don’t go, don’t go’.
“She had a bad feeling about it all. He had been hit on the head with a hammer on Shepherd’s Bush Green a few weeks ago.
“She took him to the hospital and he had to get stiches.
“He wasn’t going to go. It was a last minute decision.
“She begged him not to go. This is why she’s so broken.
“He was taken to Jamaica to be assassinated. It’s a country you can get killed in.”
She said Anuja is in bits and a “complete mess”.
She added: “I’m nearly at the end of my life. They had all of theirs ahead of them together.”
The Sun previously revealed that the couple-of-13-years were planning a traditional three-day Nepalese wedding and wanted to start a family with two children.
A senior police officer said Sean’s assassination was a contract killing ordered from the UK.
Jamaica’s deputy police chief Fitz Bailey said: “There is no evidence that Patterson was robbed or has any connection in Jamaica.”
He added that Sean was well-known to UK authorities and had an extensive criminal record for offences including narcotics, violence and firearms.
Sean’s friend Oshane Richards, 33, known as Shabba, has been arrested on suspicion of murder. It is unclear what role he is thought to have played.
Sean’s heartbroken parents called him their “diamond” son and said they were devastated at his death.
And video shows the moment he jumped into the sea while enjoying his holiday before he was killed.
Dad Alan Patterson told The Sun: “Everyone’s broken down. He hadn’t even started to live yet.
“Some of Jamaica is paradise but there’s more poverty than paradise. He went to a different part.
“He went for his first time to one of the most dangerous places.”
Lesley added: “He was just a diamond. If he came into your room he’d light it up. If he was your friend he’d make you glow. He had that speciality.
“It was those green eyes. He was a green eyed gremlin – I used to tell him that. He was a mummy’s boy.”
The family has now set up a fundraiser to help cover funeral costs. They wrote on it: “His untimely death has left a whole in our hearts that nothing could ever fill.”
