Is it possible that the missing Emil Boev from Pernik was kidnapped?

Such a version was launched by his brother.

These days, he announced a reward of BGN 100,000 for anyone who finds him alive or provides information to help find him.

The boy has been missing for the tenth day.

Emil Boev's brother says he decided to announce a reward because of the lack of results from the search so far.

Before he disappeared without a trace, the young man was in the city and left the phone in his car because it was broken, BNT recalls.

"I'm not sure how a person manages to disappear without a trace. Down in the middle of a city and in the middle of a festival, but it's possible. 10 days we volunteers, policemen work pretty hard and yet, at least according to my information, of course , we are not even an inch closer to finding him," said Martin Boev.

Martin says the abduction version is a guess he made on the basis of logic, not because he has a specific reason for it.

"The method of elimination, frankly. Because I can see he didn't go to the woods. There was no way he was going to the woods. There was nothing for him to do there. In these temperatures, in this condition.

If he had gone to town, someone would have seen him.

There's no way he could have gotten into a farm or something like that, because no one would logically do that, and if he was on the street, someone would have seen him," said Martin Boev.

The police in Pernik refused to comment at this stage.

They only stated that despite the time that has passed, they continue to work actively on the case.

According to the long-time former head of "Izdrivane" in the Ministry of the Interior, there is operational logic in such a version and it should be worked on.

Missing Emil's brother: Every second counts, I'm praying for a breakthrough

"Usually, when quick search operations are carried out, there is a positive result. But here we see that the temperatures have been quite low for several days and it is also dangerous for health, but after all the areas in the area have been checked, we can also work on this version of some kind of kidnapping ", said Krasimir Zanev, former head of "Search" in the Ministry of the Interior.

According to Martin Boev and Krasimir Zanev, however, no analogy can be drawn between the finding of little Sashko after his father announced a 100,000 BGN reward and the case of Emil.
