It's been 10 days now since 27 year old Denvo Banner went missing according to family members. The six-foot-four cricket player from Lemonal village was last seen at a victory party in the village on August ninth. After that, he said he was going to see his sister in Guinea Grass but since then, no one has seen or heard from him. It is the first time he has gone missing and his family is very concerned about his safely.
They made a public appeal today.
Arlene Banner - Sister of Denvo Banner
"We are missing our brother from the 9th April at a victory party in Lemonal Village. One of my sister's got a call from one of the villagers trying to locate him and she started to text the other family member and to no avail - nothing."
Monica Bodden
"His phone was ringing or was it off?"
Arlene Banner - Sister of Denvo Banner
"He doesn't have a phone, but he is a person if he is in Belize he will visit one of us, that is not if, but or maybe. Somebody will know that he is down here definitely. That's very unusual for us - 10 days. On Facebook we have flyers out, it's on the news and nothing? I think that is really unusual."
Monica Bodden
"Did he ever mention to you guys if his life was being threatened or did he show anything that something was wrong?"
Arlene Banner - Sister of Denvo Banner
"No ma'am, not him. He is not like that. So if anything was bothering him, we wouldn't know because he would not come to us and say yes so and so. He will play everything just cool because he is cool so far and that's about it."
Monica Bodden
"He is 27 right? One may say that maybe he is with his girlfriend or..."
Arlene Banner - Sister of Denvo Banner
"I believe that if he was and to all the messages that has been going out, but now he would have text somebody or he would have call somebody and say don't worry about me I am here, that's definite. But for 10 days, no, something is wrong and I believe that he is totally missing and something else went down."
