  • Police need your help finding missing Coquitlam hiker Ali Naderi

A Coquitlam man is missing in an area that connects with a spider web of walking and hiking trails, and Coquitlam RCMP is asking for your help to find him.

Ali Safar Naderi was reported missing just before 9:00 p.m. Sunday night, August 23rd when his vehicle was found in the 2100 block of Diamond Crescent, Coquitlam.

Naderi is known to hike alone in that area almost daily. However, a concerned citizen called police after observing that Naderi’s vehicle had been parked many hours longer than usual.

Coquitlam RCMP investigators have searched Naderi’s vehicle and apartment for clues and have spoken to Naderi’s extended family and neighbours. There is nothing to explain what happened to Naderi and there is significant concern for his well-being.

Naderi is described as: A 52-year-old Persian man, With brown eyes, Black, salt and pepper hair of medium length, 178 cm (5’10) and 80 kg (176 lbs), May be wearing hiking gear. Naderi has gone missing near the foot of Eagle Mountain.

Due to the sheer number of trails and paths in the area it is not possible to do an organized search and rescue effort without knowing more about Naderi’s intended destination.

If you have seen Naderi, or may have information about his whereabouts, please contact the Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550 and quote file number 2020-22677.
