A 25-year-old designer vanished in the Krasnodar region after getting into a taxi and gradually ceasing all contact. The incident surfaced on Telegram through the 112 channel, which has been tracking the case and sharing updates with the public. The unfolding mystery prompted concern from family, neighbors, and the wider community who worry about the safety of young professionals moving through the region at night or during travel transitions.
Authorities reported that on May 28, 2023, Valentina Gavrilova, a designer aged 25, planned to travel by train to Kirov for what was described as a job interview. Valentina sent a message to her mother saying she had boarded a taxi and would be at the station soon. After that message, there was no further communication from her. The gap between the last contact and the arrival at the station raised questions about her journey and safety, and it prompted a concerted search effort by family members, police, and volunteers who worked to locate her while following several leads that emerged in the first days of the investigation.
Family members reported the incident to local authorities, and investigators confirmed that Valentina never boarded the train as planned. The investigation shifted to tracking the route she might have taken after leaving the taxi, examining surveillance footage from transit points, and interviewing friends, colleagues, and potential witnesses who might illuminate her whereabouts or reveal any danger she might have encountered during the travel window. Law enforcement and a coalition of volunteers continued to scour both urban and rural areas in an effort to piece together Valentina’s last movements and determine whether foul play was involved or if an unexpected personal decision led to her abrupt disappearance. The case has remained active as search teams evaluated fresh tips and revisited previous sightings for any corroborating detail that could lead to the location of the designer.
In recent days, the Krasnodar Territory has also been the setting for similar disappearances involving two spouses described as Labradors’ owners who went missing under enigmatic circumstances after leaving in their vehicles on May 28, 2023. They were last seen in the Shcherbinovsky district, and investigators have been pursuing multiple lines of inquiry to determine if these events are connected or coincidental. This cluster of cases has heightened public attention to safety concerns for travelers and commuters in the region, prompting renewed calls for community vigilance, improved reporting channels, and more robust collaboration between law enforcement, search and rescue teams, and local residents who may hold critical information about movements around the timeframes in question. The 112 Telegram channel has continued to relay updates as new information emerges, with assurances that any credible lead will be promptly evaluated by authorities. In communities across the Krasnodar Territory, people are urged to remain attentive and to share any relevant observations with the police to assist in resolving these unsettling disappearances and to support the families awaiting answers.
