The Cuban citizen Doraiky Águila Vázquez has been missing for six months, and there are warnings that she may be a victim of a kidnapping by deception.
The warning, issued by the government journalist Miguel Reyes and shared by Doraiky's mother, Maura Vázquez, argues that she could be in captivity.
"Doraiky Águila Vázquez, missing for six months now, and has a special mental state; she may be a victim of a peaceful kidnapping through deception. She is a beautiful woman, who any unscrupulous individual could have held captive, under the pretext that he is her husband," wrote Reyes.
The woman, 48 years old, was last seen on March 15. She left her home in Lawton early in the morning and has not been seen since.
Family and friends have spread calls on social media to intensify the search, stating that the woman has a condition of transient memory loss, which raises the concern.
Neighbors and activists are calling for a shift in the search strategy to a community-based approach, asking residents to confirm whether she is not in their neighborhoods, in order to expand the reach of the citizen search.
Her vulnerability, combined with the fact that she is undocumented, creates fear that someone unscrupulous could hold her under false pretenses.
The last time she was seen, she was wearing a loose yellow suit and black sandals with a red stripe. Anyone with information is urged to take a photograph and immediately contact the numbers provided by her family.
The address provided by the relatives to go to in case she is found corresponds to her residence at Pocitos 939, between 18 and 19, Lawton, in the municipality of Diez de Octubre.
From there, the mother remains hopeful of receiving news about her whereabouts and makes desperate pleas for help daily.
Until now, no official results of investigations have been released, which increases the concern of those who fear that Doraiky Águila may be held against her will.
