Mother Appeals for Help Finding Missing son who reportedly went missing after return to Antigua
The mother of a missing 21-year-old man has issued an urgent appeal for information regarding her son who reportedly disappeared in Antigua over a week ago.
Candy Jageshar posted a plea on Facebook seeking the public’s assistance in locating her son Thomas, who was last seen on Tuesday, April 15, just one day after returning to Antigua supposedly from Trinidad.
“Please people of Antigua please, if anyone knows where Thomas is please ask him to call his mom. This is a plea for help. Please help me find my son. Today is 8 days since no one has seen or heard from him,” the distraught mother wrote.
Please share as much as u can it will reach the correct person or persons.
The young man is described as 6 feet tall with dark brown eyes, brown skin, and black hair. He has no tattoos but does have a distinctive chipped front tooth that may help with identification.
Family members have expressed growing concern as Thomas has now been missing for over a week with no contact.
“It isn’t like him to go off the grid without telling anyone. We are extremely worried,” another family member stated.
Today marks eight days since anyone has seen or heard from Thomas.
Anyone with information regarding Thomas’s whereabouts is urged to contact the family immediately at (868) 304-0582 or (868) 343-3802. The family is also asking the public to share the appeal widely to help spread awareness.
