Raimundo Rodrigues Costa, a 59-year-old man, has been missing since February 10 after fleeing the Therapeutic Community Despertar in Macapá, Amapá. The escape occurred during a crisis linked to his struggle with alcoholism, prompting concern from family members who have been actively searching for him. They have taken to social media to plead for information about his whereabouts, effectively raising awareness of his situation.

In response to his disappearance, local police have released photographs of Raimundo and are investigating the case through the Homicide and Protection of Person’s Department (DHPP). A formal police report has been filed, and authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward. The community's response has been one of alarm, particularly because the rehabilitation facility is located near a forested area, raising fears about his safety in solitude.

Raimundo had been admitted to the rehabilitation center on February 8 to address his alcoholism. His family is working closely with legal representatives to navigate the situation while continuing to seek assistance from the public. Efforts to locate him include sharing contact numbers for reporting any leads, indicating the distress and urgency of their search as ten days go by without any sign of him.
