Alejandro was a young Mexican who was completing a semester abroad in Freising and living near the campus. One evening, while partying with his predominantly Mexican friends, he went too far by not only consuming excessive amounts of alcohol, but also using marijuana as a “downer” and, to counterbalance this, energy drinks intended to keep him alert. Under the influence of this strongly mind-altering combination, a trivial matter led to an argument between Alejandro and his companions. As a result, the young Mexican ran out of the apartment where the party was taking place in the early morning hours without shoes and could not be found thereafter. He neither returned home nor was he reachable by telephone or via various chat apps.
Three and a half days later, there were still no indications of Alejandro’s whereabouts, and so his family decided to commission our detective agency in Freising (+49 89 7007 4301) from Mexico to search for the missing person. Initially, an aunt of the missing man contacted us in English; a few hours later, an entire emergency management team became involved, managing new leads from Mexico and taking over communication with us. At this point, it dawned on us that Alejandro’s family was probably not positioned on the lower rungs of the social ladder.
In order to begin the investigations without delay, a meeting was arranged between our operations manager and the missing man’s brother, who flew from London to Munich that evening to accompany the search on site. After the completion of the preliminary discussion and the investigation contract, the brother informed us that the father also wished to join the search. For this purpose, he would fly from Madrid to Munich the following morning. A meeting with the police and the Mexican consul had also been arranged.
As the case thus began to attract wider attention and it could not be assumed that just any Mexican would receive direct support from the consul in such a situation, our lead detective for Freising was keen to know whom he was dealing with as a client. Accordingly, he instructed the office to urgently review the principals. It emerged that they were a large industrial family clan from the coffee sector, exerting considerable political influence in Mexico.
As the mantrailing dogs – highly sensitive human scent tracking dogs – would only be ready for deployment in a few hours due to the short-notice commissioning, our private detective in Freising carried out preliminary research in the meantime. To this end, he inspected the missing man’s apartment and questioned his also Mexican flatmate. The latter stated that, together with friends, he had already been searching the surrounding residential area and various parks for Alejandro for two days – without success. The flatmate had noticed in recent weeks that the missing man often sat motionless on the sofa for hours, staring into space. Alejandro had also repeatedly hinted at depressive moods to his family. The seriousness of the case had thus increased yet again, as depression can all too quickly lead to suicidal thoughts – especially under the influence of mind-altering substances.
While waiting for the arrival of the mantrailing dogs, the investigator from our corporate detective agency in Freising searched online for all hospitals within an ever-expanding radius. He called each one individually, unsuccessfully enquired about Alejandro in every case, and left his contact details in the event that the sought-after Mexican should be admitted to one of the hospitals. Where data protection was cited in individual cases, our private investigator emphatically instructed the staff to inform the police immediately of any indications or sightings. For this purpose, he provided the hospitals with Alejandro’s details as well as a distinctive personal description. Subsequently, the detective also reported the missing person to rescue services, accident transport units and the fire brigade emergency control centre. None of these contact points had transported or found an unidentified male person of Alejandro’s age in the past three days.
Late in the evening, the mantrailing dogs were finally ready, meaning that the search had to begin in the dark. First, the handlers took scent samples from worn clothing from Alejandro’s room, which enabled the first deployed mantrailer to immediately pick up his trail. Even though several days had already passed, tracking did not pose too great a challenge for these human scent tracking dogs. However, the time elapsed could have led to the problem that Alejandro might have covered large distances in the meantime. If this were the case, the dogs would have had to follow these routes and would therefore have required correspondingly more time the greater the distances the young Mexican had travelled. And indeed, the search extended throughout the entire night.
In the early morning, just as it could be verified that the trail led to the S-Bahn towards Munich and the deployment team of our private detective agency in Freising intended to continue tracking via the various stops of the S1 line, operations management received the information that Alejandro had been identified in one of the Munich hospitals that our investigator had previously contacted and instructed. The missing Mexican was uninjured, but distressed and confused. The fire brigade had found him outdoors by chance.
