Overview
- The pair, last seen Thursday, April 16, in separate locations in the Tampa campus area, were reported missing Friday after a family friend could not reach them.
- The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office has taken over the investigation and now lists Nahida Bristy and Zamil Limon as endangered.
- Deputies are searching across Hillsborough and Pinellas counties, coordinating with Clearwater police and a Pinellas forensics unit, and asking anyone with information to call 813-247-8200.
- Investigators report no confirmed contact and phones turned off, say there is no indication of foul play at this time, and confirm the two are not in immigration custody.
- Bristy and Limon, both 27 and from Bangladesh, are described by relatives and classmates as diligent PhD students, which makes their sudden silence especially alarming.
