NORWICH – Ganesh Remy Ramsaran, 38, of New Berlin, pleaded not guilty to one count of second degree murder in Chenango County Court shortly after 1:30 p.m. today, more than five months after he first reported his wife, Jennifer L. Ramsaran, 36-year-old mother of three, missing, and only hours after his arrest at approximately 11 a.m.

He is accused of killing his wife, whose body was discovered, unclothed, on Feb. 26 near Center Road in the Town of Pharsalia.

Speaking on the issue of bail, Chenango County District Attorney Joseph McBride gave a preliminary sketch of the prosecution’s evidence regarding the alleged murder – that Ramsaran was engaged in an ongoing affair with another women – and that Jennifer had, at the time of her death, scheduled an appointment with a divorce attorney. By way of an alibi, it is alleged that Ramsaran was working from his home computer the day of his wife’s disappearance, according to McBride. The district attorney added that an examination – conducted by authorities on his home computer – revealed that to be false.
