''Rakesh Rama says he last saw his roommate, Sridhar Nidammanuri, at 8 p.m. on April 21.
It was a Friday evening. Rama was headed to Toronto and the the last he heard from his 26-year-old roommate were "come back soon," he recalled.
The following Monday, Rama said he received a call from Nidammanuri's boss saying he hadn't shown up at work, and couldn't reach him. This was unusual behaviour for his roommate, said Rama.
"He's a hard worker. He's a good friend of mine, as well as a good roommate," said Rama. "We don't know what happened exactly — what went wrong on that day. We are all worried about Sridhar."
Rama said Nidammanuri's personal belongings were left in his apartment, including his wallet, phone and even his shoes.
Montreal police set up a command post downtown on Wednesday afternoon with hopes of gathering some information about the missing man.
At the same time, a community demonstration was held near Concordia University as organizers work to raise awareness about the disappearance of Nidammanuri.
He was last seen on April 21 at around 11:30 p.m. near the intersection of de Maisonneuve Boulevard and Guy Street in the Ville-Marie borough.''
