Catherine Camilon, a beauty queen who joined the Miss Grand Philippines pageant early this year, has been reported missing.
In a Facebook post, Catherine's sister Chin-Chin called upon those who might shed a light relating to her whereabouts.
“Baka po mababasa to ng kasama ni Catherine Camilon kagabi na ka work niya, hindi lang po namin alam kung sino, di po matandaan ang pangalan, pasabi naman po baka alam niyo po kung nasaan siya,” Chin-Chin's post read.
She added, “Palagi po sya nag a-update sa amin, ngayon lang po talaga hindi.”
Chin-Chin detailed the last time they were able to reach the 26-year-old beauty queen was last Thursday, OCt. 12, 8pm.
Her sister's phone, she said, had been turned off since then.
Catherine’s mother also posted a message for her.
“Anak nasan ka? Uwi na… magbuhay ka na ng cellphone para makausap ka na namin.. mahal na mahal ka nmin," she wrote.
"Dyos ko tulungan mo po kame makita na o makausap ang aming bunso. Wag nyo po siyang pababayaan… ilayo nyo po sya sa kapahamakan.. Panginoon wala po akong ibang hinihiling para sa kanila kundi ang kaayusan nila… ingatan nyo po siya,” she added.
It is not known if the family already sought the help of authorities.
Catherine, a public school teacher, represented Tuy, Batangas at the Miss Grand Philippines 2023 pageant in July.
