The anguish and uncertainty have taken hold of a Havana family following the disappearance of Cristian, a 25-year-old man who was last seen on Monday after leaving his home with the intention of selling a mobile phone.
Since then, there have been no concrete updates about his whereabouts.
His brother, Ronald Valdés Alguino, has turned to social media to desperate seek help.
In a message posted on his Facebook profile, he wrote: "Today, with my heart broken, I ask everyone who can help to share in any groups about the disappearance of my brother Cristian, who is 25 years old."
"He left the house on Monday to sell a phone and hasn't returned. I ask everyone to please help us; we are desperate to find out where he is," she added.
Additionally, he provided a contact number (55648573) and stated that, according to information obtained, the last record of Cristian's phone was located in the municipality of Caimito, province of Artemisa.
Since he shared the post, Ronald and other family members have followed every available lead. In a recent comment, he noted that they have still not been successful in finding him: "Nothing yet, they say they have seen him and we go to the place they tell us but still nothing."
The situation becomes more critical with each passing day, and the lack of reliable information keeps the family in a state of constant desperation.
The case has started to circulate on social media and community groups, while friends and supportive citizens amplify the search by sharing Cristian's image and information.
The family insists that any information, no matter how small it may seem, could be key to locating their loved one. In a context of rising insecurity and frequent reports of disappearances in the country, every hour without answers heightens the concern.
An urgent call is made to the public and authorities to assist in locating the young man.
