Circumstances of Disappearance
Shailesh Prabhu, a software engineer at Interbase in Santa Cruz, California went to work on the morning of September 14 and did not come home.
He had planned to go to the temple in the evening for the puja celebration, with his wife. That morning, he called from work and reminded his wife about the Hindu Ganesh festival in Sunnyvale that night.
At 18.30, when he still had not called home, his wife called his office every few minutes but got no response. His wife called the San Jose police and began her own search. At work, his computer was on. His email program was open. His voice mail unanswered. His satchel was on his chair.
His vehicle was later located on September 17, parked near the Golden Gate Bridge. His wallet and credit cards were on the passenger seat, intact. There was no note, and no witnesses. The Coast Guard has not found any evidence of someone jumping off the bridge within that time frame.
Prabhu had been struggling with severe depression for years, and was on antidepressants at the time. If he stopped taking them, it would result in severe mood swings, disorientation and possible memory loss. Prabhu's wife said he told her he would never take his life. She said he's never wandered away before. Shailesh, from India, was on an H-1 visa. He had been married to his wife for seven months. He had just been promoted at his job.

"It's not unusual for an adult to disappear but then they usually reappear somewhere, with another job, another partner. This has not happened here. He has just, simply disappeared of the face of the earth," said Detective Craig Tarr of the San Jose Police Department.
