Sinasabing nawawala si Azenith, at ang dahil ay "dinukot" umano ito ng mga hindi pa nakikilalang tao.
Muling nanawagan si Isabel ngayong Sabado, Nobyembre 18, 2023, isang araw matapos ang eksklusibo na panayam sa kanya ng Cabinet Files noong Biyernes, Nobyembre 17, 2023.
Hindi pa rin nababawasan ang labis na pag-aalala ni Isabel tungkol sa kalagayan ni Azenith kaya nag-iipon na siya ng mga ebidensya na magpapatunay na nasa wastong pag-iisip ang kanyang kaibigan na naglaho.
Ito ang Facebook post ni Isabel ngayong hapon na may kinalaman sa hiwaga na bumabalot sa sinasabing pagkawala ni Azenith, na kung tawagin niya ay Azi.
Sabi ni Isabel (published as is): "Friends, I’m gathering affidavits from good friends who know her to clarify that Azi is not a mentally sick person as others claim bcuz they want to extort money from her.
"She is of sound mind, an entrepreneur & caring person. She was supposed to meet w/ a friend to help an actress in need of help.
"Ganu’n siya kabait! Yes, maybe sometimes she can be talkative & malakas boses like me when talking but never mentally ill. She has the kindest heart."
Ibinahagi pa ni Isabel ang huling pag-uusap nila ni Isabel.
"We were supposed to have lunch but she never answered & her FB acct. was removed that’s why I am in this panic state bcuz she’s a dependable person.
"Who can remove an acct if it’s not who is close by her side at the moment of abduction.
"She had a lot of appointments w/ different people who were calling & looking for her but unfortunately was not able to defend herself as she was abducted by unidentified men at 10 pm in her abode,” ang salaysay ni Isabel.
Ibinahagi rin ni Isabel ang mga larawan ni Azenith na kuha bago ito nawala. May paniniwala si Isabel na may hindi magandang nangyari sa kaibigan nito.
Aniya, "This is the last picture taken of her at a dinner in a friends house the night she was taken.
"I cannot in my conscience just look away when a friend is missing & cannot be found for no reason.
"I plead w/ you friends not to believe that she is just doing this for publicity."
Nagbitaw ng pangako si Isabel na hindi siya hihinto sa paghahanap kay Azenith hangga’t hindi ito lumilitaw.
Dagdag ni Isabel sa kanyang post: "Azenith Briones is not that irresponsable, cheap & low life to do such thing.
"She is definitely held w/o her consent, if she is still alive w/c I pray she is. She is a busy lady running & dutifully managing her bussiness affairs.
"She is missing & until I see her w/ my own eyes & she sees me to know that we, her friends are supporting her in her plight, I will not stop...
"May our good Lord Jesus Christ have mercy & open doors for us to find her. Amen."
Sa kasalukuyan, hindi pa rin malinaw kung ano ang tunay na nangyari kay Azenith.
Nananatiling bukas ang PEP.ph sa anumang pahayag ng sino mang nakakaalam ng whereabouts ni Azenith.
