$100,000 reward offered for safe return of missing Scottsdale man with autism

The family of Najib Monsif, better known as Jubi, is offering a $100,000 reward for any information leading to his safe return.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Where’s Jubi?

It’s a question a Scottsdale family has been asking obsessively since the 20-year-old man with autism disappeared in September.

And now the family of Najib Monsif, better known as Jubi, is offering a $100,000 reward for any information leading to his safe return.

Jubi was last seen wandering around his home near Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard and Via Linda on Sept. 22 but then vanished without a trace.

"I'm asking everyone to help find our angel,” his dad, Najib Monsif Sr., said in September.

Jubi has the mental capacity of a 6-year-old, and his family made a tearful plea for more information in October. But Jubi remains missing.

Although Scottsdale police said they don't believe someone came into the house and abducted Jubi, they do believe someone could have influenced him in getting out of the neighborhood.

Anyone with information on his disappearance is asked to contact the Scottsdale Police Department at 480-312-5000.

Arizona's Silent Witness program allows people to send in tips and share information about crimes happening within their local communities. 

The program shares unsolved felony case information in multiple ways, including TV, radio and social media. 

Anyone who has information on a crime or recognizes a suspect described by the program is asked to call 480-948-6377, go to the program's website online or download the Silent Witness app to provide a tip. The identity of anyone who submits a tip is kept anonymous. 

Calls to Silent Witness are answered 24/7 by a live person and submitted tips are accepted at all times. Submitted tips are then sent to the detective(s) in charge of the specific case. 

Individuals who submit tips that lead to an arrest or indictment in the case can get a reward of up to $1,000. 

Have a tip? Submit it on the Silent Witness tip form here.
