Bhagwan "Moses" Lall
Justice for Bhagwan "Moses" Lall — the trail went cold in 1994, but the truth hasn't.
Start here
Where are Lilawattie "Lila" Bueratan (Lall's aunt) and the two ranch hands who were also missing when the property was discovered?
What happened to the nearly $700,000 worth of exotic birds left unattended on the property?
Were there any known associates, business partners, or individuals with access to the ranch who may have been involved?
On June 2, 1994, Bhagwan "Moses" Lall, a 31-year-old Guyanese national operating an exotic bird ranch in Loxahatchee, Florida, disappeared without a trace. Three days later, a delivery driver discovered the five-acre property abandoned with hundreds of exotic birds worth nearly $700,000 left unattended, along with Lall's aunt Lilawattie "Lila" Bueratan and two ranch hands also missing. Investigators believe Lall is a victim of foul play, but the circumstances surrounding his disappearance and the coordinated absence of multiple people remain unexplained after three decades.
