Biljana left her passport, her watch, and her gold rings at the newsstand. She said 5 words and she disappeared. It has been 902 days since then, and her case is not the only one
Barbara Vitez, Dejan Pauca, Biljana Djoric have been listed as missing for years
A huge void remains if your child is missing, your brother, sister, father, mother, any member of your family, or a friend. The pain doesn't stop, it becomes greater, it never dies. The closest to them hope every day to see a familiar face. That is how people spend their lives who have lost someone.
They hope that they are alive and that they will hear their voice again, see their smile and that they will talk to them. When the phone rings or if someone knocks at the door, they wish it was them every time, but that is all that happens.
The girl disappeared on November 25th, 2016 in Senta, and the last thing we know is that she returned home late in the evening with her friends and that she jumped into Tisa river, according to the unconfirmed claims. She was just 15 years old, and today, 18 months later, she is still listed as missing. Her body was not found to this day, and there are many theories about the girl's disappearance, and there are claims that she has been seen outside Serbia.
- The investigation is at standstill. Barbara has been seen in Hungary for the last time, in two cities. A man from Hungary who is dealing with finding missing persons, she was Facebook. The profile wasn't hers. She was on chat with another girl. He asked her questions only her could answer. There weren't on chat anymore - Endre Vitez started his talk with Telegraf.rs, who hopes every day that his missing daughter will pass through the door.
The man from Hungary sent the photos from Facebook to the parents.
- I wouldn't recognize her based on the photo, she grew up, she changed, but the scars she has, the ones that are shown in the photo indicate that it is her. Those are specific scars and no two people can have them - Vitez said.
Barbara went everywhere with her parents.
- Barbara would never remain home alone, she was really attached to her mother and me, she would go everywhere with us. She didn't meet any boy, she didn't have a boyfriend, nor a best friend who would make her do it. We suspect that someone kidnapped her because she would never leave - Endre Vitez said.
Father's message he sent to Barbara is heartbreaking and reminds us that the family is really the most important in the world.
- My message to Barbara is to let us know in any way where she is, and I will search the place upside down to find her - Endre Vitez finished his conversation with Telegraf.rs with trembling voice.
Biljana was declared missing when she was 19 years old, she was last seen on December 2nd, 2015 when she left her passport, her mobile phone and her gold rings at a newsstand in Kraljevo. She just said "someone will come to pick this up", and every trace is lost since then.
The information recently appeared that Biljana was seen outside of borders of Serbia.
- A man in Greece said that he saw a girl who looked like my daughter. I thought that she was found and that she went there to make some money. However, when he read that she wasn't fount, he went and reported the case. He said that he was certain it was her.
After that I went to Belgrade and they told me that the bar where Barbara was seen is not working, and that it will be open on June 1st, so they will send Interpol then - Vesna Djoric, Biljana's mother, started for Telegraf.rs.
The parents never had problems with Biljana. She graduated from Medical High School, she went to college, she passed three exams. The question of her disappearance is greatly disturbing them.
- I really don't know why Biljana did that. The only thing that could be the reason is her first boyfriend. She was in love, and she didn't know who he was. He was causing problems. When she saw who he was she left him. After that the man threatened even us, perhaps this is the way she wanted to protect us. The police talked to him, but he said that he didn't know anything - mother explains who hopes that she will find her daughter for more than 2 years.
When they found out about the threats, Biljana's fathers reacted the best way they could to protect their child.
- They broke up three months before her disappearance. They were together for three, four months. He harassed her both physically and mentally, and she didn't want to tell us that because he threatened that he will wait for her sister when she was going home from school if she told us. She went through hell with him and she couldn't take it anymore, and then she told us - Biljana's mother said.
Vesna Djoric just wants to hear if her daughter is alive and well.
- I will never give up on searching. I will go wherever, whatever information I get, I will go - she shared her endless suffering for her missing child.
She has only one message for Biljana.
- Just let us know where you are. Give some sign that you are alive, we don't ever have to see you ever again. We just want to know that you are alive - Vesna Djoric concluded her conversation for Telegraf.rs.
The family of Pauca Dejan (42) doesn't know where he is for more than two years, the last time he has been seen was in Ub.
- My brother Pauca Dejan went missing on January 27th, 2016. Since the body was not found, he is listed as missing. His car was found in Obrenovac in the industrial zone, where even his phone signal is lost.
Blood has been found in the car, which points out that he was murdered, but at the entirely different location, and the car was moved to the industrial zone. My brother has been murdered. My parents and I have been in hell for more than two years, waiting for someone to talk to us, our thoughts are pointed towards my missing, that is, murdered brother - Dejana Sindjic explains for Telegraf.rs, the sister of the missing man.
The pain is indescribable, minutes are long, and the days never pass. It has been like that for years. The wound on the heart will never heal. The only thing that can heal broken hearts of the families is for their missing to return, or at least to let them know that they are alive and well.
