The sisters, both of whom work in the medical field, were supposed to return from Europe in February, but never did. Loved ones and federal officials are sharing on Facebook that the two women were found dead.
Jill Barwig with the Bureau of Consular Affairs of the United States Department of State confirmed the death of the sisters, saying, "We can confirm the death of two U.S. citizens in Switzerland. Out of respect for the privacy of the family, we have no further comment at this time."that two sisters who were supposed to return from Europe in February have been found dead.
Friends and colleagues of the two say they think foul play is involved, and are worried the sisters may never come home. Ammouri and Frazier took a direct flight on Feb. 5 from Chicago to Zurich. Friends say it is not clear why they went there in the first place. The two sisters were supposed to fly back on Feb. 13, and be back at work on Feb. 15.Dr. Biglari, a longtime friend and colleague of the two, says no one has heard from the two since an email was sent from a work laptop on Feb. 9. Then, they got a text message a day later that they strongly feel is actually from someone else pretending to be them.
Friends didn’t waste anytime contacting local and international authorities, as well as the embassy, but Dr. Biglari says more needs to be done.
