THE mother of missing taxi driver Simon Joash Bhagwath is appealing to to the public for any information that could assist in finding him, almost a week after he and his vehicle disappeared.

Fighting back tears in an interview with reporters yesterday, his mother, Juliana Lal-Bhagwath, pleaded with the public to come forward with any information that could help investigators bring him home safely.

'I am appealing to anybody who knows anything, or saw the vehicle, or has any idea where he is, to please call the police or those in authority or call home and let us know. I want my child home. I want my child home with me, where he belongs. I pray that God will bring him home safely. He has to come home,' Lal-Bhagwath said.
