Summary

Something awful had been happening to 37 year old Elnaz Hajtamiri. Although she never confided in her family what exactly, it seems as though she was being hunted. Over the span of several weeks, multiple tracking devices were found on her car, she was violently attack by two masked men, and then her the events of her last known moments. On the evening of Jan 12, three men dressed as police officers enter a home she had been staying at claiming to have a warrant for her arrest. Elnaz was last seen being dragged by these men barefoot through the snow and into a white SUV. Despite incredible efforts from Elnaz's many loved ones. The questions of where she is, who took her, and why.... remain unanswered. In this episode of Nighttime, my co-host Ashley Drake and I will revisit and provide updates related to the Jan 12th abduction of Elnaz Hajtamiri Episode Links: Bring Elnaz Home Twitter: https://twitter.com/BringElnazHome Bring Elnaz Home Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Bring-Elnaz-Home-110131228246610 Links: Missing in Canada Series: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com/keep-canada-weird make a case suggestion: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com/contact Provide feedback and comments on the episode: nighttimepodcast.com/contact Subscribe to the show: premium feed: https://www.patreon.com/Nighttimepodcast apple podcasts: https://applepodcasts.com/nighttime Musical Theme: Noir Toyko by Monty Datta Contact: Website: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/NightTimePod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NightTimePod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nighttimepod Ashley Drake on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halloweenphotografiend Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/nighttimepodcast Premium Feed: https://www.patreon.com/Nighttimepodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

You may also recall that the home she was abducted from wasn't her place. She was staying with family due to another incident three weeks prior in which she was brutally assaulted with a frying pan in the parking garage of a Richmond Hill apartment building.
