Sky Metalwala missing Washington State 8 November 2011

Afternoon update 8 Nov 2011:  I just found out that Julia Biryukova lived in an apartment 2.2 miles away from where she says that Sky was left in the car.  I am not sure of at what point she lived in the apartment, but it wasn’t far from HER last sighting of Sky.  Where she lives now, Redmond is about 9 miles from Bellevue.  So what was she doing in that area Sunday morning before 9 am?  Alot of unanswered questions in this case, and since she is now more than likely talking through her attorney, we may never know!

Police are saying that the boys disappearance has been caused by criminal actions.  The daughter is now in protective custody, and there is no information on the fathers polygraph.

Here are the audio recording that Julia has put on the web:  Biryukova Blog

8 November 2011:  Foul play is suspected in this case.  Sky going missing happened just 11 days after the parents were in mediation for their divorce and the mother getting custody of the children. I hope they look into who has custody, and maybe Dad isn’t the one who should get it either. Who would leave one child in an unlocked car, and take the other child with them and be gone for an hour?

FBI has joined on the search for Sky.  The mother has DECLINED to take a polygraph!  Solomon Metalwala, Sky’s father,  took a polygraph, and the results are inconclusive.  His attorney says it is due to lack of sleep.  He will take another polygraph today. [Note both already have attorney’s, I assume this is due to the divorce]

When police arrived at Julia Biryukova car on Sunday, there was no gas can to be found.

So seems there is quite a battle going on in this case.  The divorce proceedings have gone on for 20 months.  The mother was diagnosed with ‘severe’ obsessive compulsive disorder she spends 8 hours daily cleaning.  Then one psychologist says later on it is effective parenting.  I assume if we

talk to this psychologist again, leaving the child in the car is also effective parenting.  So reading the ‘NEWS’ sites, there isn’t really any information out about Sky, and if the search is still going on, or if there is any information in the case.  They have all posted about the divorce of the parents, and the charges, etc.

7 Nov 2011 evening update:  The search continued this morning at the mother’s apartment and the car.  A picture from King5 news shows police tape across the trash room door.  Photo [thanks Maze]  The father said today that his estranged wife’s story doesn’t add up, and is wondering why she left Sky and didn’t walk to a nearby restaurant instead.

Sky Metalwala went missing from his mother’s car when she ran out of gas.  Julia Biryukova left him in the car and walked with her 4 year old daughter for help and when she returned [about an hour later] Sky was gone.  Julia Biryukova stated the car was NOT locked, but that the child was left in the car, but is cooperating with Bellevue police.  Law Enforcement searched the wooded area, but called off the search at 6 pm Sunday night. No amber alert has been released.  Solomon Metalwala has not seen the children since January.

A woman driving in that area about 9:10 on Sunday morning, said she saw the car but no one with it, so she just drove on.

Sky has brown eyes and dark buzz-cut hair and was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and blue and gray striped pants.  If you have any information, call 911.  [Thanks Toasty]

The FBI has joined in on the search for Sky.  Apparently the picture is what Sky is wearing when he was left in the car.
