Quévin Andre Protseko, 21 years old, has been missing since Sunday from Santa Luzia, Tavira. His parents still have no news and continue to search the Tavira area after authorities located Quévin's cell phone signal.
Quévins mother told newsapapers, “We were already in Romania, and Sunday morning Quévin was due to go to catch the bus from Tavira to Lisbon, and then from Lisbon to Budapest, to attend his brother's wedding. Saturday night, when I called him at 20:33, we spoke very well, I told him not to be late, etc”.
Neighbours entered through the backyard of the house on Sunday morning, in search of the young man, but Quévin was no longer there. His documents and money were still in the house.
The young man's mother tried to call him, but he did not answer. “Until Monday the phone rang, but with no answer”, but no longer does.
Authorities located Quévin's cell phone signal, which led to searches by the family. “The signal was detected in Tavira, but it is a very large area. In the morning we went through all the houses, through the wells, etc”. Despite searches, the parents have no leads.
Five days have passed since Quévin Protseko disappeared, but his parents do not know what could have happened. In the run up to his diappearance, the young man himself had told his friends that he was going to Romania for his brother's wedding.
In recent days there have been reports of sightings of the young man in Albufeira, but all still lack official confirmation.
“If anyone knows his whereabouts or has seen him, please contact 910 653 295”, says the appeal published on the Facebook page of the Parish Council of Santa Luzia.
The family is desperate and also asks for help, also leaving the following mobile number for anyone with any information: 919 029 216.
