The disappearance of a 46-year-old Albanian businessman on the island of Rhodes, in Greece, is "turning into a thriller". Greek media reports that the well-known construction contractor from Albania, identified as Xhani (Dzani) Topalli, has lost his tracks on Sunday evening and the event is now "turning into a thriller".
The police officers who are conducting the investigations are said to have found his "Honda CRV 4×4" type car with the windows open and without keys in Kalythies, at a marble point in the area.
A witness testified that he had seen the car abandoned since Monday morning, while investigations by the cell phone company revealed that his cell phone had been turned off since Sunday evening.
The 46-year-old businessman who is the father of three children is said to have eaten together with two of his compatriots and a 10-year-old boy at a restaurant in Falirak on Monday afternoon. This is what a waiter testified.
In addition, there is a statement from a soldier that places him in the area at the same day and time.
As the newspaper "Dimokratiki tis Rodos" writes, since he had open accounts due to work and was trying to collect the debt, it is surprising that he did not respond to a meeting he had on Monday morning with a hotelier who would pay him 30 thousand euros for the work he had done. The hotelier reportedly searched for her and contacted people known to her. But the Albanian had disappeared.
The night before, Topali allegedly had a meeting with another hotelier with whom they agreed to pay off debts from another project, who informed the authorities that in the end their meeting was cancelled.
All exit gates from the island are checked
As "Dimokratiki" writes, his disappearance has caused concern among family members and friends. His wife and brother, accompanied by their lawyer, notified the Public Prosecutor, the director of the First Police Directorate and the officers of the Deputy Director of Security in Rhodes and AT Archangelos.
The 46-year-old had been at the port on Sunday afternoon with a group of friends and had left in the evening of the same day to meet the hotelier.
From the control of the cameras, it was revealed that he had headed towards the area. All exit gates from the island were searched, but nothing was discovered.
