Help find Lisa Wiese who went missing in India
I am Lisa Wiese's ex-husband and the father of our 2 children. Lisa and I were legally married in Egypt for almost 5 years. Lisa led a very interesting and fulfilling life. At a young age she started an NGO by the name of Your Siblings. It helped fund self-sufficient projects in undeveloped countries. While the organization is no longer active, it's web page is still up. You can view it at: https://yoursiblings.org
Lisa started Your Siblings with the money she earned by cleaning apartments and homes in Berlin, Germany, along with the help of some of her friends. She wanted to do good on this earth and travelled to places such as Uganda and Somalia trying to make a difference.
When we met in 2012, Lisa had already accepted Islam and was in Egypt trying to learn more about it. We spent a lot of time with a group of individuals who would later go on to form what I, as well as many others that interacted with them, believe to be a cult. In the beginning they were just individuals trying to learn more about God and find their way in life.
Unfortunately, as time went on this group of individuals became more and more lost and were being misled. I could see what it was forming into and I tried my best to help them as best as I could, Lisa especially. I spent roughly 2-3 years around them, trying to convince them that they were in what was forming into a cult. However, you cannot force someone to see what you see just as you cannot force someone to love you. You cannot convince someone that they aren't one of the chosen 313 or the 10,000 or the reincarnation of Mary or Noah or Joseph if that's what they are choosing to believe.
In the end, I was belied, demonized and villified by this group. I was slandered as a reincarnation of villainous biblical figures there to destroy their leader. Me and a few others were partially successful though and we helped some people see this group for what it was. We were also successful in causing them so much trouble that they fled from Africa to Europe. Unfortunately, I was unable to save my ex-wife from her beliefs and involvement with this group and it eventually destroyed our marriage and led to our separation and divorce.
After we got divorced in Egypt, Lisa went to Germany. We agreed we'd speak about what to do after 2 years and we'd meet up at that point. I was under the impression that she would be staying at her mom's and trying to get her situation figured out; getting an apartment/job, but she ended up staying with this group. She later moved with this group to Sweden.
Lisa Wiese disappeared in March 2019 in the Kerala region in India. She was travelling with a male member of this group who returned to Europe without her after a few days. After her disappearance I was able to convince her mother into filing a missing persons report with the German Consulate in India. There are many articles online regarding Lisa's disappearance, most of them from Indian media outlets. You could easily Google "missing German in India" and they will show up on the first page, right at the top. Some of the information isn't accurate, such as the fact that we lived in the U.S. together for some time as we had lived in Egypt during our marriage, but the majority of it is accurate. Here are some of the links:

You can see from the articles that there are mentions of terror outfits and I want to be clear that I don't believe that Lisa was involved with terror outfits. Lisa was involved in a cult. One cannot control what Indian journalists write online and that is what the authorities in India told me when I asked them about this. I can only speak for what I had seen and been told. There are a lot of misconceptions surrounding Islam and I believe Islam is a beautiful religion, like all religions. But there can be Islamic cults just as there are Christian ones, New Age ones, etc.
I spent the next two and a half years speaking to officials in India, Germany and the United States at different times. I fully cooperated with all of them but I was never told the full scope of what happened as the case is ongoing. First I spoke to an Indian Commissioner for two months in 2019 then I never heard from him again. Then I spoke to Lisa's mother's lawyer and he relayed communication with the German authorities. But they wouldn't tell me anything I didn't already know. In the first half of 2020 two FBI liasons came to my door on behalf of Interpol to collect my statement. Then I got put into contact with a German police liason officer in Washington D.C. in late 2020 that told me the BKA was reviewing the case but she was being dishonest with me more than once, which I found to be extremely disrespectful, so I had to call her out on it and I haven't heard from her since. Then in early 2021, State Police came and retrieved me and our children's DNA, which I gave up willingly, and there hasn't been anything since.
You might have noticed that I have been referring to Lisa in the past tense. That is because I strongly believe that Lisa is no longer alive. I know that this has not been confirmed by the authorities, however I have my own reasons for believing this and since none of this was told to me by the authorities, I'm going to go ahead and list my reasons:
1. She travelled to India with a member of this group and they came back without her. No one has heard anything from her since then so this person was the last known person to have seen her. The one member of this group that I reached out to that responded to me told me some story about how she wanted to get away due to depression and anger related to family issues and being away from our kids. This story conflicted with what Lisa and I had been talking about for the last 6 months before her disappearance. The story just doesn't add up.
2. I spoke to several former members of this group and there were several stories circulating at the time regarding a fallout between Lisa and this group. The fallout was major and she could have caused a lot of problems for this group if she had come forward and spoke out against them. These people are afraid to come forward and are fearful for their safety.
3. Our 2 children who I know Lisa would never have abandoned. She was supposed to take a trip for a few weeks. No one has heard from her in over 2 and a half years.
I want to try to get justice for Lisa and an answer for our children, her mother, sister and myself. I have remained silent publicly this entire time in the hopes that the authorities would be able to get to the bottom of this situation and solve the case. However, I am dissapointed and displeased with the lack of results after such a long time and it has come to light now that if more time passes without any new information the case will be put on hiatus and it will become even more difficult to get justice.
I don't normally ask for financial help from anyone, let alone strangers on the internet, but given the scope of this situation and the multitude of individuals, governments and law enforcement agencies involved I have no choice but to seek help if I'm going to be able continue to fight for the truth and justice for Lisa.
I am wanting to hire a lawyer in India so that they are able to request access to the official police reports. I would like to offer a 1,000,000 Indian rupees, or more, reward for any information leading to or finding out what happened to her. At the current exchange rate, 1,000,000 Indian rupees is a little under $14,000.
Finally, I'd like to hire an international lawyer to review all the information we've collected to see if we are able to take the person who travelled with her and/or this group to a civil court in Europe to hold them responsible for her disappearance, if it's legally possible. I don't know how much this will cost but I know they have a lot of money and I'm guessing I would most likely need a lot of money to fight them in court.
I know that this a lot to ask so donate if you can and please share if you can't. Even if we are unable to raise all the funds to take on this group in court perhaps we will be able to spread enough awareness to put pressure on the authorities to do a better job than what they've done so far.
Any money gathered will go to these causes and if any remains after these tasks are completed it will be used to help Lisa's family try to put their lives together after this regretful and traumatic event, including her mother and sister. I'm not on here trying to get money for myself or my kids. If that were the case I would've done something like this a long time ago and I wouldn't be using my missing ex-wife as the reason. Instead, I did everything I could to help solve this case over the past 2 and a half years until I had no other options. I'm trying to get something done for Lisa, who didn't deserve any of this. If I'm able to do it then it would be a blessing, if not then at least I will be able to find closure and solace knowing that I tried everything within my power to solve this and I will finally be able to let go and leave the rest for the Universe to resolve on Lisa's behalf.
If only some of our financial goals are met I will use it to first place the 1,000,000 rupee reward, then getting a lawyer in India to gain access to the police reports, followed finally by consulting with an attorney in Europe to see if we have a case in a civil court setting.
Thank you for your time and I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day.
