She was said to have left her office in the early hours of Feb. 10 to go home.

“She usually takes a cab to and from work,” her sister-in-law Cheryl Ann Gohu-Santaromana told the Inquirer. “She was fine and even texted her son at 1 a.m. that she would be home by 2:30.”

Gamboa’s family has reported the matter to the Makati Police Department.

The family is appealing to anyone who may have information on Gamboa’s whereabouts to contact her brother Francis at 0917-539-9421 or send a private message to her sister Sunny Santaroma Graham’s Facebook page. CDG
