The next day, the doctor didn’t show up to work. Secretaries at the hospital believed she went AWOL. Her mother never saw the doctor again, and they eventually moved to the UK to reunite with her father in 2001.
Years later, she received an email from one of the secretaries at the hospital in Malaysia. The email contained a link to a news article about a woman who had died after jumping off a building. The description and image of the woman “bore a striking resemblance” to the doctor that had gone missing.
Their suspicions that it was her were practically confirmed when the article mentioned that this suspected woman had been running from the police after poisoning and dismembering her ex-boyfriend in India. She was arrested but fled after jumping bail and hadn’t been caught for years.
“For one reason or another, the police have yet to make a conclusive identification on the body of the suicide victim,” she explains. “So while there is every chance that she is the woman who fell, there is also a chance that she isn’t.”
Perhaps they’ll never know if the woman from the news article is their old doctor friend, but there are certainly some signs pointing to yes.
