RCMP Horse and Rider
The RCMP in Richmond are seeking assistance from the public in locating an 86 year old man that went missing in the early afternoon hours of January 26th, 2012.

Mohammad Forghaniashrafi (86 yrs) came to Richmond with his wife from North Vancouver for the day. At approximately 1:30 pm, Mr. Forghaniashrafi decided to take a transit bus to an area church on Blundell and has not been heard from nor seen since.

Mr. Forghaniashrafi suffers from a medical condition requiring him to take medication twice per day. Failing to do so can result in his becoming confused, losing his sense of direction and may lead to his collapsing.

Mr. Forghaniashrafi is described as an 86 yr old man, 5'2" tall, 115 lbs, short white / grey hair, moustache, wearing a black suit and pants, beige ball cap with the letters “GH” on it and carrying a cane. The gentleman does not speak English (only Farsi as he is of Persian ancestry).

Should anyone located Mr. Forghaniashrafi, they are asked to call the Richmond RCMP at 604-278-1212.
