MISSING IN KANSAS: Manouchehr “Mike” Nafar

18657013_G.png


It’s been more than 36 years since Wichita State student Manouchehr “Mike” Nafar vanished.

On Feb. 25, 1983, Mike's yellow van was found abandoned and on fire at a car wash on the south end of Augusta. The license plate tag, though, was missing. It had a Kansas plate SG M 37993 with an expiration year of 1983.

According to government records, on that day, he was supposed to go home on the southeast side of Wichita, but police are not sure he made it there. He missed class at WSU and was supposed to go look for a job.

Mike's family was last known to be in Iran. Police and the U.S. Department of State have tried to track them down to get DNA samples, but they have not been successful. If dead, DNA could help confirm his identity.

Twenty five year old Wichita State University student, Manouchehr Nafar, who went by Mike Nafar, has been missing under VERY suspicious circumstances for thirty seven years now. Sadly, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI - Kansas Bureau of Investigation - Drug Enforcement - Home) has not been able to communicate with any relatives of Manouchehr Nafar. Law enforcement is hoping a family member will volunteer to donate a DNA sample to help LOCATE this missing Wichita State Student. Or. Help give them some answers as to what happened to Manouchehr Nafar.
بیست و پنج ساله دانشجوی دانشگاه ایالتی ویچیتا ، منوچهر نفر ، که به همراه مایک نفر رفت ، اکنون سی و هفت سال است که تحت شرایط مشکوک بسیار مفقود شده است. متأسفانه ، دفتر تحقیقات کانزاس (KBI - Kansas Bureau of Investigation - Drug Enforcement - Home) نتوانسته است با هیچ یک از بستگان منوچهر نفر ارتباط برقرار کند. اجرای قانون امیدوار است که یکی از اعضای خانواده داوطلبانه برای اهداء یک نمونه از DNA برای کمک به مکان این دانشجوی گمشده ایالت ویچیتا کمک کند. یا. درمورد آنچه برای منوچهر نفر رخ داده است ، به آنها پاسخ دهید.
So here’s what we know about Manouchehr, also known as Mike Nafar’s Disappearance:
On the morning of Friday, February 25th, 1983, Manouchehr “MIKE” Nafar, left his girlfriend’s apartment. The twenty five year old student had supposedly missed his morning classes at Wichita State University, but it’s unclear if he had already missed those classes from over sleeping at his girlfriends house, or if he just decided to skip all together that day and focus on searching for a job. His plan was to at least head home to change, but no neighbors reported seeing him that Friday morning, at his SE Wichita residence, which was a duplex home located off of North Green Street.
بنابراین آنچه در مورد منوچهر می شناسیم ، همچنین به عنوان ناپدید شدن مایک نفر معروف است:
صبح جمعه 25 فوریه 1983 منوچهر “MIKE” نفر ، آپارتمان دوست دختر خود را ترک کرد. این دانشجوی بیست و پنج ساله ظاهراً کلاسهای صبحگاهی خود را در دانشگاه ایالتی ویچیتا از دست داده بود ، اما معلوم نیست که آیا او قبلاً آن کلاس ها را از خوابیدن در خانه دخترانش از دست داده بود ، یا اگر او فقط تصمیم گرفت همه روز را با هم پرش کند و به جستجو بپردازد. برای یک شغل برنامه او این بود که حداقل سر خانه تغییر کند ، اما هیچ یک از همسایگان گزارش ندادند که وی صبح جمعه ، در محل اقامت وی ویچیتا ، که یک خانه دوبلکس بود واقع در خیابان شمالی گرین شمالی بود.
Later that same day, Mike Nafar’s yellow 1974 Chevrolet van was engulfed in flames near a car wash on the south side of Augusta, Kansas. Augusta is about a 30 minute drive east of Wichita. The Kansas license plate on Mike Nafar’s van had been removed from the vehicle and was never found. License plate was registered in Sedgwick county, which is where Wichita is located, so it had an SG to the left side of the license plate, and the license plate number was M 37993. The tags on the van were set to expire that same year in 1983. No remains were found in Mike Nafar’s vehicle and Manouchehr MIKE Nafar has never been seen or heard from since February 25th, 1983.
بعداً در همان روز ، ون زرد 1974 مایک نافر در نزدیکی ماشین لباسشویی در ضلع جنوبی آگوستا ، کانزاس در شعله های آتش شعله ور شد. آگوستا با ماشین 30 دقیقه ای شرقی ویچیتا فاصله دارد. پلاک کانزاس در ون مایک نفر از وسیله نقلیه خارج شده بود و هرگز پیدا نشد. پلاک پلاک در شهرستان Sedgwick ثبت شده است ، جایی که ویچیتا در آن قرار دارد ، بنابراین یک SG در سمت چپ پلاک داشت و شماره پلاک آن M 37993 بود. برچسب ها در این ون قرار بود در همان سال منقضی شود. در سال 1983. هیچ بقایایی در وسیله نقلیه مایک نفر یافت نشد و منوچهر MIKE Nafar از 25 فوریه 1983 تاکنون دیده و شنیده نشده است.
The Kansas Bureau of Investigation has reportedly been attempting to contact Manouchehr Nafar’s family for decades, but they have never been found and no one has ever come forward to offer a DNA sample so that law enforcement can attempt to compare Manouchehr Nafar’s DNA to unidentified remains, IF he was met with foul play.
بنا بر گزارش ها ، دفتر تحقیقات کانزاس کانزاس برای ده ها سال است که با خانواده منوچهر نفر تماس گرفته است ، اما آنها هرگز پیدا نشده اند و هیچ کس تاکنون نتوانسته است یک نمونه دی ان ای را ارائه دهد تا نیروی انتظامی بتواند سعی در مقایسه DNA منوچهر نفر با بقایای ناشناس داشته باشد ، اگر او با بازی ناعادلانه روبرو شد.
Manouchehr Mike Nafar would be about 62 years old, if alive today. He was 25 years old when he went missing. Five foot seven inches tall, and roughly 150 pounds. Mike was last seen wearing a jean jacket, a black shirt and jeans. He had a mustache at the time of his disappearance, a full head of brown hair and brown eyes. If you have any information regarding the 1983 disappearance of Manouchehr “Mike” Nafar, please contact the Kansas Bureau of Investigations at (316) 337-6100 or submit a tip online to KBI - Kansas Bureau of Investigation - Drug Enforcement - Home
اگر امروز زنده بود ، منوچهر مایک نفر حدود 62 ساله می شد. 25 ساله بود که گم شد. پنج پا هفت اینچ و تقریباً 150 پوند. آخرین بار مایک دیده شد که کت ژنی ، پیراهن مشکی و شلوار جین را پوشیده است. او هنگام ناپدید شدن ، سبیل داشت ، سر پر از موهای قهوه ای و چشمان قهوه ای. اگر اطلاعاتی در مورد ناپدید شدن منوچهر “مایک” نفر در سال 1983 دارید ، لطفاً با دفتر تحقیقات کانزاس در کانزاس از طریق (316) 337-6100 تماس بگیرید یا یک نکته را به صورت آنلاین به http://www.kansas.gov/kbi/

Circumstances of Disappearance​

Manouchehr, originally from Iran, and who went by Mike, was last seen around 10 a.m. on February 25, 1983. He had spent the night at his girlfriend's house. Mike left for his apartment, 10 minutes away, to change clothes before heading to a class at Wichita State University. He had a soccer game planned for later that day and a date with his girlfriend that night. He never arrived to any of those plans and police are not sure he ever arrived back home that morning.

On February 26, a few minutes past midnight, Mike's abandoned 1974 yellow Chevrolet panel van was found on fire at a car wash parking lot in Augusta, 11 miles east of Wichita. In the back of the van police found a 2-foot-wide pool of blood, later matched as Mike's blood type. The van's license plate, Kansas tag SG M 37993, had been removed and has never been recovered. Police ruled robbery out as a motive based on Mike's $1500 tool set left inside the van.

Mike worked as a mechanic at Wichita auto dealerships. At the time of his disappearance, Mike was running a repair service out of his van. He was enrolled in engineering technology at WSU and wanted to design automotive equipment. He dropped out of one of his classes two weeks before his disappearance.

Mike's passport and American resident permit were located at his apartment. Foul play is suspected in his disappearance.

All family members of Manouchehr Nafar are requested to please contact law enforcement in hopes of a DNA sample being collected for comparison purposes.
