"He was responding to all my messages up until Thursday, 4 May. He just went silent then, and I started to panic a bit.""His students were writing exams the following week after he disappeared, and he didn't want them to be disappointed if he didn't show up for the start of the exams because he knew how much effort he put in to get them ready. Somehow, between him leaving his residence and going to town to look for a mechanic, was when he disappeared," she said.
