So, if she could reach her brother, what would she tell him?

That his family loves him. “We’re waiting for him to come home. Please come home.”

One of the hardest parts was to hear he never made it to his meeting, she said. She reacted to this with fear and panic.

He is a man devoted to habit, Harricharrandas said.

Every morning, he would make a call to his mother, so she could speak to her grandson.

So, this is very out of character for him. The only detail that sticks out is a fall he had about a week ago. He fell down the stairs at home and hit his head. His 5-year-old heard him. Harricharrandas thought he was fine but a week later, he suffered headaches, nausea and blurry vision. Because he was at first fine, he never got checked out by a doctor, she said, adding they don’t know if this caused confusion.

York Regional Police is seeking public assistance to locate Harricharrandas, who was last seen on Wednesday, June 19, dropping his son at school. He did not arrive at work and did not return home. He was supposed to pick up his son from his parents’ Richmond Hill home.

The hashtag the family is using is #bringshandyhome, the Facebook page they created is Bring Shandy Home.
