On a winter day in January 2001, 19-year-old Anwar Green and his friend, 19-year-old Rahim Martin visited Independence Community Bank at Broad and Academy streets in Newark to cash a large check Martin had received from a civil suit. Surveillance shows Anwar appearing nervous inside the bank; the pair successfully cashed one check for more than $8,000 while a second $4,000 check to Martin was never cashed. They then walked to the Prudential Building on Broad Street, where Martin used a pay phone to call his uncle. That call is the last confirmed contact with either young man.

Neither had a driver’s license, Anwar’s cell phone was left behind and there was no subsequent activity on his credit cards. The day after they were reported missing, two bodies were found in a burned-out Newark house; autopsy work showed both had been murdered before the fire. One body was later identified in August 2010 as Rahim Martin; the other remains unidentified and Anwar is still officially missing. Because of the large sum of money involved, investigators have long suspected robbery as a motive.

Does anyone have information about where Anwar might have gone after leaving the Prudential Building or about the unidentified victim found in the fire?
