The recent disappearance of Isabella Dan (AKA Rui Dan), a property lawyer based in Toronto, has sent shockwaves through the legal community and sparked police speculation that she may have been kidnapped, possibly in relation to her being accused of mortgage fraud.
This is just another case of recent weird violent crime in Toronto.
Rui Dan, who was last seen on March 3, left her Markham apartment and entered a parked Porsche Cayenne belonging to “an associate.”
Since then, there have been no sightings of her, and her home was found in a state that was out of character, with personal items and food left out. It didn’t appear that she had planned to go on a long trip.
According to police investigators, Dan was dropped off by the associate to meet an unknown person in either the area of Highway 7 between Warden and Leslie in Markham or along Yonge Street between York Mills and Eglinton in Toronto.
Despite being missing for months, the police have not spoken to anyone who knew Dan personally, which has raised suspicions about her disappearance.
Isabella Dan’s law firm has been marked as permanently shut down on Google Maps.

Mortgage Fraud Lawsuits
Dan was embroiled in at least four civil lawsuits at the time of her disappearance, which alleged that she had taken out fraudulent mortgages on several Toronto-area properties. While the Ontario Superior Court of Justice has confirmed the lawsuits, the police have not yet confirmed whether they think this may have led to her disappearance.
There is speculation that she has been kidnapped in hope that she will repay money to the alleged victims of the mortgage fraud.
The police have classified Dan’s disappearance as “unusual” and “suspicious,” and their investigation is ongoing. They have requested dashcam footage from the public for the time frame of 8:22 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. on March 3 in the mentioned areas.
Dan has been described as a woman with a medium build, five feet seven inches tall, Asian, with brown eyes and long, dark hair. She was last seen wearing a beige coat with a fur collar, black pants, and carrying a red gym bag.

The fact that Dan may have gone by other names, including ’Rui Dan’ and ‘Rourun Dan,’ has raised suspicions that she may have been trying to hide something or avoid detection. However, it’s not uncommon for Asian people to have multiple names.
The discovery of Dan’s vehicle near her home has not yielded any significant leads in the investigation.
Dan’s disappearance has caused distress and concern amongst her family, friends, and some members of the Toronto legal community. With no trace of her whereabouts, people are left with questions and worries. The police investigation continues, and any piece of information from the public is highly valued in the search for Dan.
The emotional toll of Dan’s disappearance cannot be overstated. It is a tragic reminder that life can be unpredictable, and things can change in an instant. The fact that the police have not yet been able to confirm what happened to her only adds to the distress and anxiety of those who knew her. We can only hope that the investigation will yield answers soon so that there are answers.
