Barbara Vitez disappeared in Senta on November 25, 2016, and according to unofficial information, she was returning home with her friends late in the evening and that she allegedly jumped into the Tisza from the bridge.
Barbara Vitez
She was only 15 years old, and today, after more than five years, she is still listed as missing. Her body has not been found until today, and there are numerous theories about the girl’s disappearance, as well as claims that she was seen outside Serbia. Her parents Endre (51) and Melinda (48) Vitez still do not lose hope that Barbara is alive, since her body was never found in the river Tisza.
Some clues indicated that she was in Hungary, but if so, it is completely unknown whether she was there of her own free will or perhaps she was abducted. If she is still alive, she turned 20 in August.
The Vitez family has only been followed by an accident since Barbara’s disappearance. Barbara’s brother Attila suffered from autism and epilepsy and passed away on March 5, 2019, when he was 25 years old. He got a high temperature and, unfortunately, did not recover from the coma. A few months later, Melinda’s father died, and soon after, Endre’s.
– It’s hard, the pain is too great, and every day is filled with hopes and expectations that we will at least hear that Barbara is alive. We are broken, as if a black cloud was hovering over us – says Endre, broken by pain.
Alone in pain and sorrow, doomed to immeasurable suffering, Melinda and Endre spend their days in the family home in Senta. Since the disappearance of their daughter and the death of their son, they barely have the strength to cope with all the obligations of life.
I had to retire, I was no longer able to work – said Endre, who worked as a driver in “Vojput”. By the way, Barbara has been on the Interpol yellow warrant, on which persons have been missing, since February 2017.
On the day of her disappearance, five years ago, two of her friends told the police that she stumbled on the bridge on the Tisza and fell into the river. However, Endre and Melinda don’t believe it.
– She was last seen on November 25, 2016 in the Senj store “Idea”, when she was filmed by cameras, and that was at 9:41 p.m. The video does not show that our daughter went to the bridge or the other side with those two boys – Endre points out.
At that time, Tisza was searched several times by members of the Serbian and Hungarian diving police units, together with dogs. In a search that lasted a month and a half, the body of the missing Barbara was not found.
– The boys who were examined on the polygraph at that time gave statements in Hungarian, while the translator in Serbian transmitted it to the competent authorities. After that, Sanmo told us that the polygraph was done, but we don’t know if the boys were caught in a lie. None of the authorities has addressed us for five years, no institution – Barbara’s father complains.
