On July 12th, 2019, Edward Odhiambo, a Kenyan national, disappeared in Berlin, Germany, sparking a desperate search by his family and the police.
According to his sister, Millie, Odhiambo was on his way to meet friends when he vanished, leaving behind a trail of unanswered calls and unexplained absences.
Police were initially called by a passerby who spotted Odhiambo bleeding at Berlin-Lichtenberg station on July 13th, but they let him go after he refused medical assistance.
Further review of CCTV footage revealed Odhiambo in the company of a man known to the police, leading authorities to suspect that he may have been drugged and could be in danger.
As of July 23rd, 2019, the case has been handed over to the Federal Criminal Police (KriPo), who are working to locate Odhiambo and ensure his safety.
