these odd mysteries remain unsolved despite countless man hours from police and private
investigators number five when cyber security expert arya compage disappeared while on holiday
in norway the mystery made headlines around the world years later many people believe the mystery
is still unresolved arya was a dutch national and one of the most respected people in his field
he specialized in cyber security for investigative journalists and had worked with everyone from
routers to wikileaks he kept in contact with former employees of national security agencies
and hackers to stay up to date with the latest news and techniques and spoke out
against proposals for e-voting in august of 2018 he left the netherlands for a holiday in norway
shortly before leaving he purchased a foldable canoe and told the seller he planned on taking
it to the fjords he stayed in the city of bodo for a while while checking out of his hotel
on august 20th this was the last time anybody saw arya he kept friends back in the netherlands
up to date with his plans while he was away he was planning on taking a 10 hour train journey
to the city of trondheim it was from there that he booked a flight from amsterdam on august 22nd
he never caught the train to trondheim nor did he make his flight back to amsterdam it was after he
failed to arrive home in the netherlands that the police got involved police believed he had
taken a train from boto to rogan a much shorter journey of just under 90 minutes it's not clear
if that was the first leg of a planned journey to trondheim as the train would have passed through
rogan or if he had chosen to travel to rogan instead of trondheim for some reason a few weeks
after he had vanished fisherman found his belongings including his id floating in the water
around 50 kilometers from bodo his cell phones were not among his belongings nor was his canoe
or any sign of what had happened the following day police announced they had pulled the canoe from
the water and it had a hole in the hull at this point they were working with three possibilities
an accident arjun had intentionally disappeared or he was the victim of foul play wikileaks was quick
to share the story and conspiracy theories about a government abduction or that he had been on a
secret mission for the organization but it didn't help that bodo is home to a norwegian military air
base which played a major role in the country's cyber defense operations ten days after he went
missing his cell phone was activated for a short period of time then the sim card was switched out
for a german one this only caused more speculation after a year-long investigation police announced
that the phone had been used by lorry drivers in eastern europe who had simply taken it they
weren't involved in his disappearance given how long it took to reveal this information
some people believed this was part of a cover-up as police wanted to close the investigation
sure enough police concluded that aryan had likely ended up in the water while canoeing
and his body had been washed out to sea the explanation still raises questions according to
his friends he was not a risk taker and wouldn't have done something like this without a friend
others have questioned why he would have gone canoeing with all of his luggage after checking
out of the hotel he was 47 years old at the time of his disappearance five foot eight inches tall
with long blonde hair and glasses number four just after midnight on september 9th
2009 irina sofa nova returned to the building where she lived after a date with her boyfriend
the boyfriend alexander shuriken had picked her up from her place of work the evening before
and dropped her off outside the apartment building a few hours later one of irina's neighbors got
into the elevator in the building accidentally kicking a newspaper that was lying on the floor
she discovered a set of keys under the newspaper and picked them up
the following day she put up a sign in the hallway to say she had found the keys
the keys belonged to irena who hadn't been seen since the night before irina lived with her son
and younger brother in a flat in southern russia her sister lived in the same apartment building
they realized she was missing in the morning when alexander called irina to wish her a good morning
he tried her cell phone and when she didn't answer he called her landline irina's son said she hadn't
returned from the cinema yet which sent off alarm bells as alexander knew she would have been home
by now irina's friends and family began to search for her covering the local area with flyers asking
for information it was believed irina had picked up a newspaper on her way into the building
gotten into an elevator then disappeared however nobody actually saw this happen and it's possible
she could have been taken before she even went inside alexander became the prime suspect as he
was the last person to have seen her but there was no evidence linking him to her disappearance
likewise her estranged husband was also a suspect but he lived in moscow at the time
she went missing and there was again no evidence as there were no security cameras in or around
the building it seems likely the mystery will remain unsolved for the perceivable future unless
someone comes forward with an explanation police do not believe she disappeared of her own accord
and they do suspect foul play since becoming an adult irina's son has spoken about discovering his
mother was a missing person in the hopes it might convince the person responsible to come clean
number three
matthew daniel enfeld was last seen fleeing a grocery store in thurston county washington
on february 28 2019. he was in the middle of what appeared to be a mental breakdown
telling the store workers that someone had taken the lives of his entire family
when the store workers tried to contact police he ran and hasn't been seen since matthew's erratic
behavior had started earlier that day he had spent the day bowling with his sister then returned with
her to his parents home his sister was in her bedroom located on the other side of the garage
to the rest of the house and matthew told her he was going to fetch his phone from the main house
he never came back instead he seemed to go to a neighbor and told them someone was after him
and they had taken the lives of his family the neighbor obviously called police but as would
be the case later on you didn't stay much longer matthew jumped a fence and ran into traffic it
doesn't seem like he had been hit and he ran two miles to the grocery store where he was last seen
what could have happened to matthew and where he ended up after he left
the store is an unsolved mystery matthew was 20 years old at the time of his disappearance
he had used illegal substances in the past but his family were working with him to get clean
and it's unknown if he was under the influence of anything when he vanished
he was having money troubles too but his family didn't know of any borrowing he may have done
a few months before the incident shortly before christmas of 2018 matthew was violently assaulted
he had been walking home after an evening out with a co-worker his phone was dead
and he had no means of transportation as he walked he noticed three men following him
he tried to shake them by entering a store but they were waiting for him when he left
matthew was jumped on one of the back roads and was violently beaten
the men eventually fled and matthew managed to make his way home he refused to go to the police
or to the hospital and said he didn't want to get his family into trouble at first he claimed he
didn't know the men but when pushed he said he didn't owe anyone money who the three men were
and whether they had anything to do with matthew's disappearance is just another unsolved question
number two ryan singleton was on the way to achieving his dream of becoming a model
when he mysteriously disappeared in california's mojave desert
his body would turn up more than 70 days later but what exactly happened to him remains unsolved
ryan was a relatively successful model having earned a spot on the runway during new york's
fashion week a few years earlier in july of 2013 he flew from his mother's home in atlanta georgia
to los angeles then hired a car to travel to las vegas while returning from las vegas the
car broke down ryan began walking down the side of the highway where he was spotted by highway patrol
the officers picked him up and drove up and down the stretch of highway where ryan believed his
car was but there was no sign of it instead they dropped him off at a nearby gas station
where he called a friend to pick him up by the time the friend arrived ryan had disappeared
when the friend returned to los angeles he contacted police to report ryan missing
an intensive search of an area with a five-mile radius began ryan's car was found a few miles
north of where he had told the officers it was finally in september of 2013 ryan's body was found
by hikers two miles from where he was last seen it was an area that authorities had already searched
but it's possible they just missed the body during the initial investigation his organs were
missing but due to the time that had passed it was impossible to say what had caused him to pass away
even if it had been animals responsible for the state of the body as authorities believed
ryan's family and friends still believe he met with foul play before that point
the circumstances surrounding ryan's last day on earth were mysterious enough but ryan had been
acting strangely in the months building up to this odd event he had moved to new york years
earlier to pursue his career in modeling in 2010 he and a group of friends decided to head to los
angeles ryan wanted to move into acting as well as film production and the friends were documenting
their journey for a planned documentary about two and a half years after they left new york
ryan decided to leave los angeles and return to new york there he married a celebrity stylist
kaith brewster who was twice his age his mother didn't know caive and didn't find out about their
marriage until it was posted to social media they were married for a few months before the
relationship ended and ryan moved back in with his mother in atlanta he was acting strangely at this
point and told his mother something bad was going to happen to him and he had hurt a lot of people
his mother never found out what he was talking about or who he had heard a few days later he
left for la for the final time telling his mother he was trying out for a football team in las vegas
on the day he disappeared ryan called his mother and her husband he asked his mother for money
and her husband said he sounded drunk and could be in danger if something did happen to ryan it's
impossible to determine whether it was a random attack or something more premeditated why he went
to las vegas in the first place is a mystery as the football team's story turned out to be false
it's not clear why he would have even left the gas station as he knew he had a friend on the way
if he didn't want to meet the friend it's odd that he would have even bothered to call him
ryan's friends released a documentary in hopes of raising more awareness about his case
number one between 1984 and 1988 five people on the caribbean island of saint croix
lost their lives in mysterious circumstances all five were the victims of cyanide poisoning
who took their lives remains an unsolved mystery more than 30 years later
the first victim was a man named hague gilby caesar hague was a 38 year old man who had
lived on saint croix his entire life though voodoo was commonly practiced on saint croix
it wasn't something higgs wife believed to be real and she had thought he felt the same way
so when her husband told her that he'd been talking to an obaya man who told him about evil
spirits on their property she was shocked haig had been told that there were three jars filled
with ancient coins buried in a piece of land that they owned evil spirits protected the jars
and the mysterious man told hague they needed protection from the evil spirits in order to get
the jars hague borrowed 100 000 to give to the man in return he received a potion that was supposed
to protect him from the evil spirits his body was found in his car on may 24th 1988. it looked as if
he had been run off the road an autopsy revealed cyanide poisoning was responsible for his passing
and investigators believed the poison had been the so-called potion he had been given
the 100 thousand dollars was of course missing two years later a similar series of events occurred
edzel stryden and carmen torres owned a local bar and were looking to expand they took out a loan
of 54 000 though it isn't clear if that was from an official lender like a bank or someone a bit
more mysterious on september 13th 1986 they left their home at dusk in edsel's pickup truck their
daughter watched them leave not knowing it would be the last time she saw either of them alive
according to the daughter she saw her father slip a small bottle into his pocket three hours after
they left carmen was found on the side of the road she was still alive at this point but passed away
on the way to the hospital her husband was found on a nearby beach in his truck both were soaked in
seawater and both had passed away due to cyanide poisoning at this point it would be easy to brush
this off as the couple taking their own lives unable to repay the loan though no sign of the
money was ever found and police suspected foul play two more years passed and there was again a
repeat police were called to what they believed was a minor road traffic incident they found
radha maharaja at the side of the road half a mile away from where carbon had been two years earlier
and seriously ill she had no external injuries and there was no sign of a struggle
she too passed away on the way to the hospital due to cyanide poisoning her husband krishnadath was
found 16 miles away on the side of the road also having passed away due to the same poison both
were wearing clothes covered in seawater like the other people the maharajas owned a local business
this time a convenience store they had taken out a loan to expand but fell into difficulties
their daughters reported krishnadath had been receiving strange phone calls for weeks
before the disappearance they borrowed money from radha's family to pay this mysterious figure when
their daughters asked why rada said everything would be clear by monday by the time monday came
she and krishnadath had already passed away police believed all three cases were connected
and someone posing as an obaya man had been tricking the victims into believing he could
help them out of financial struggles the victims didn't seem to be involved in local religions
so it may have been easier to trick them the person responsible has never been found the
only information authorities have about him is that he has a strong french west indian accent
