In Riga, a sister is looking for a missing brother who may have been kidnapped

--

After a long effort, the family is asking viewers for help to find their loved one. The police are already involved in the search for the missing 48-year-old Valerija Masalski, but the man’s sister is still worried that her brother may have been kidnapped, reports “Degpunkt”.

Julia has been looking for her brother Valeria for two months. The woman is actively involved in the investigation and also asks for the public’s help. The brother stayed in Olaine, in the same apartment as his mother. The man often used to live in his garage in Bolderāja, so the mother did not think her son’s absence was suspicious in the first couple of days.

“All my brother’s belongings have remained at home: both the backpack, where the keys are, and all the documents – both the passport, ID card, and disability certificate have remained at home, the phone is also at home,” says Yulia.

The woman says that her brother left home on March 7 between ten in the morning and half past two in the afternoon. On March 9, Julia received a call from her mother, who said that her brother had not been seen for two days. Worried about the long absence of the man, relatives have started looking for the missing man.

The case of the man’s disappearance has been transferred to the Riga police station, where the investigation has come to a “standstill”. The woman says that, in her opinion, the protracted process is related to the categorical position of the law enforcement officers in this situation.

“One of the first times when we called the inspector, who is in charge of the investigation, she asked to look at my brother’s tablet to see if he had looked for any places where he could commit suicide. More recently, when our inspector was absent and replaced by another inspector, our conversation ended with something very similar. I was asked if my brother had thoughts of suicide?”

However, Julia admits that the desire to kill herself is not to blame for her brother’s sudden disappearance. A person contacted Valeria several times about jointly founded companies in Great Britain. The sister believes that the brother may have been kidnapped or abused.
