In May, Stefan Ionita disappeared.

His car was found in Graubünden, but the cantonal police are no longer looking.

That is a matter for Germany.

Mehren/Vulkaneifelkreis – It's every parent's nightmare: the child suddenly disappears without a trace.

The police headquarters in Trier has been looking for 21-year-old Stefan-Cristian Ionita for eleven weeks.

His mother is certain: her son is alive.

Suddenly gone – 21-year-old has been missing since mid-May

Ionita has been missing since Wednesday, May 18, 2022.

Around 11 p.m. that evening, the young man left his parents' home in Mehren (Vulkaneifelkreis, Rhineland-Palatinate) for an unknown destination.

"During the night I heard a car outside.

I thought it was the neighbors," recalled Ionita's mother, Georgeta Marcu, in an interview with the Swiss newspaper

Blick

.

The next day she noticed Stefan's disappearance.

The 21-year-old left a note in his room that read, "I'm sorry I lied to you and let you down.

But it's my choice."

Marcu promptly reported her son's disappearance to the police.

A simultaneous search call via Facebook brought a trace a little later: "A man," says Marcu, "then replied to me that he had seen Stefan's car in a parking lot in Felsberg in the canton of Graubünden."

Missing Stefan Ionita: track is lost in Switzerland

The police search that was then initiated was not very successful.

Although Ionita's car was found "at the end of May in a parking lot in Felsberg", spokesman Markus Walser from the Graubünden canton police confirmed;

the further search, in which a helicopter and a sniffer dog had also been involved, ended in vain.

Cell phone tracking was not an option because the 21-year-old had left his cell phone at home.

Worrying: As Ionita's mother

reports, her son's "identity card, [...] driver's license, [the] keys to the car, the vehicle documents and money" were also found in the car.

Where is the missing Stefan Ionita?

Swiss police: "No manhunt, no more search"

It is said that the mills of public office grind slowly.

In the case of Stafan Ionita, it seems that they no longer grind at all.

As Markus Walser further explained, there would be no public search for the 21-year-old in Switzerland.

Reason: The German authorities would have the investigative control in this matter.

"As soon as there are new findings, they will let us know," said the spokesman for the cantonal police in Graubünden.

Until then, however, they will only “look out for the person according to the current missing persons report.”

"We always had a good relationship and talked about everything," Marcu simply cannot understand her son's behavior.

She couldn't sleep at night, eat or distract herself, the apartment reminded her too much of her son, she confided in

Blick

.

Instead, she went to Switzerland herself, put up posters and even consulted two private detectives in the search for Ionita.

Where could her son be?

She does not know.

"I think he's in a bad situation," suspects Marcu, who is certain that her son is alive.

"He disappeared over two months ago.

His body would have been found long ago.

Besides, he had everything at home,” said the desperate woman.

“He never had contact with bad people.

He wasn't a problem child.

He didn't drink alcohol, didn't use drugs, didn't smoke.”

She also rules out the possibility that Ionita could have visited his father in Romania.

"Stefan has no contact with him".

Marcu fears that the "very helpful[...] boy" might actually have left to help someone else.

"Maybe someone needed his help.

He said yes, but wouldn't tell me about it.

Because he knew I wouldn't have allowed him to go far." (askl)
