[HELP] My Portuguese friend was brainwashed by the "Kailasa" cult, deported from Bolivia as an "Irish citizen" by mistake, and is now missing.

Hi everyone, I am trying to track down a very close friend of mine, Samuel Rodrigues (born August 6, 1990), who has fallen victim to the infamous fake nation/cult Kailasa (led by the international fugitive Swami Nithyananda).

The situation is highly complex, involves a massive bureaucratic error by South American authorities, and we suspect he is currently under severe coercive control. Here are the facts we have reconstructed so far:

The Incident in Bolivia (March 2025)

In March 2025, a major international scandal broke out in the Bolivian Amazon (Beni/Exaltación region). Members of the fictitious nation "Kailasa" tried to scam indigenous communities into signing 1,000-year land lease agreements. 20 cult members were arrested and expelled from Bolivia via Viru Viru International Airport (Santa Cruz).

• The Critical Error: The Bolivian Dirección General de Migración and the press officially registered and announced that 3 Irish citizens were among the detainees. https://www.facebook.com/100067676117988/videos/migraci%C3%B3n-expulsa-a-20-integrantes-de-la-ficticia-naci%C3%B3n-kailasade-las-20-3-fuer/538165532222473/
• The Truth: One of those "Irishmen" is actually Portuguese. It’s Samuel. He was wearing a black t-shirt and was acting as the group's translator/mediator. You can see him clearly in this footage on the back of a red pickup truck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuSsqGhcnW8

The Timeline & Digital Footprints

Because the Bolivian government processed him as an Irish national, the Portuguese diplomatic channels were never notified of his deportation.

• May 2025: He briefly emailed his sister confirming he was no longer in Bolivia. When he found out I was looking for him, he panicked due to the cult's strict isolation protocols, claimed his "Guru protected him," and threatened to change his email to cut ties.
• August & November 2025: He did some silent monitoring of his family's social media and sent a few audio messages.
• Early 2026 (Recent): He contacted his sister on Instagram asking for help to renew his visa, but completely refused to state which country or city he is currently in. He sent voice notes repeating cult talking points about "material and emotional detachment" from family, insisting "everything is fine."

Since he is a Portuguese citizen, he has full right of movement within the European Union. The fact that he urgently needs a visa renewal technically proves that he is living in a third-party country outside the EU.

Given Kailasa's known active hubs, we strongly suspect he is either:

1. The United States: (Where his sister lives and where the cult has massive operational bases).
2. South America: (Brazil, Ecuador, or Paraguay, where the group scattered after the Bolivian downfall).
3. Asia: (Near the cult's hidden headquarters).
4. Actions Taken So Far

• We have officially engaged the Portuguese Embassy in Lima (which oversees Bolivia) and the Consular Emergency Bureau in Lisbon.
• A Global Consular Alert is being placed on his passport. If he steps into any Portuguese consulate worldwide to get papers for this visa, a security flag will pop up.
• We have contacted Bolivian Migration to track the 2025 flight manifest from Madrid-Barajas transit.

How you can help:

• Do you recognize Samuel from any recent "Kailasa" or "United States of Kailasa" streams, Facebook groups, or religious celebrations? (He has been spotted interacting with their pages as recently as February 2026).
• If you have any OSINT experience tracking flights or cult movements related to the post-Bolivia scattering of Nithyananda's followers in 2025/2026, please share.
• If you are in the US or South America and know of active "USK" (United States of Kailasa) ashrams or houses currently operating, any location info helps.

We are terrified he is being deeply coerced or that his digital accounts are being manipulated by handlers. Any lead, no matter how small, is appreciated. Thank you.
