I read this in the Facebook wall of my friend Jojo Terencio. I called up the number listed in the entry and talked with Aiko’s mother, Amie. She said Aiko, 24, works at Techno Park.
He was supposed to meet someone at about 3:30 p.m of Dec. 4 at a corner not far away from their house. He rode on his motorcycle. That was the last time they saw him. She talked with the person he was to meet and found out that, that person decided not to come that day.
They found Aiko’s motorcycle but not him.
Amie suspects that “napag-tripan” by some gangs.
She is appealing to those who might be able to help them find Aiko. This is Aiko’s picture.
Following is the family’s appeal:
December 28, 2008
For everyone,
It’s been so hard for all of us losing our brother Obet, but what made it worst is losing our nephew Aiko. He’s been missing since Dec. 4, 2008 and until now we have no leads or news. His motorcycle was found in one of the corner street near to our place. Our youngest brother Allan tried to call Aiko on his cell phone but no answer. Our family were working with proper authorities to investigate this very serious matter.
Aiko is a very good son and not into drugs or involved in any criminal wrong doings.
This is not a joke and yet there are some very cruel people of texting my brother making a prankster joke, trying to get some money or sending text that really for us is like a mental and emotional torture. Why do we have to go through these, why can’t other people instead of sending nasty text to send supportive text messages like will pray for Aiko’s safety and for the family.
