In a heart-wrenching plea, the family of 32-year-old Cornelius Zephaniah Black is desperately seeking information about his whereabouts.

Jefferey Black, Cornelius's. father, expressed the family's concern and disclosed that they had been praying fervently for their only son's safe return.

The last time they saw Cornelius was in August 2022.

Last December, they decided to report him missing to the police when there was still no sign of him. However, the family was disheartened to find that their initial missing persons' reports to the Namaka and Nadi police stations seemed to yield no action.

Despite lodging three reports, there was little progress in the investigation , leaving the family to rely on their faith and hope for Cornelius’s return, whether he is found alive or not.

Their only wish is to have their son back, even if it means recovering his body.

“He was with friends and none of his friends have reached out to inform us of his whereabouts,” Mr Black said.

Cornelius was living independently, renting a place in Votualevu, Nadi, and was staying with his aunt, who had left for America.

The family was unaware of his whereabouts after that, with their only means of contact being through Facebook, as he did not own a mobile phone.
