Police Seek Missing Johns Creek 19-Year-Old

Three law enforcement agencies have been searching for a 19-year-old Johns Creek man since last Saturday; now they are asking for help from the public in finding him.

Aftab M. Aslam, who is 5 feet, 10 inches tall, 165 pounds and has medium-length black hair, was first reported as being kidnapped on April 27 at 10 a.m. Johns Creek Police responded to his Morton Crossing address, where officers were told he was missing from his home.

"Aslam’s family reported that they had received a phone text stating that he had been kidnapped," a news release from the city said.

Bringing the FBI and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) into the case, investigators found the phone used to send the text and discovered that Aslam had been the one to purchase it. Now authorities believe Aslam may have sent the text to his family.

Anyone who has had contact with Aslam or has any information regarding his whereabouts should contact Det. James Harris at 678-274-8348 or by e-mail at: james.harris@johnscreekga.gov.
