A man who at first glance looks like the missing young teacher who went to Vietnam has been confirmed as a false alarm.
A recent Facebook post that led some to conclude that the 20-year-old South African man who travelled to Vietnam to teach and then went missing was involved in a serious accident is in fact not him.
His girlfriend Judy Kurash, who is running the account, said on Saturday: “Everyone, I appreciate your concern, but the photo of the man on the motorcycle accident/landslide is not John. It was verified with the authorities before it went viral. Please do not not argue with me about this point. His work visa, which was sponsored by the Institute for Training and Economic development , expired last Sunday.
