SCOTTSDALE, AZ — The family of Najib "Jubi" Monsif is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to the cause of his disappearance and death and a $10,000 reward to anyone who finds his skull, Monsif's father, Najib Monsif, Sr. said in a statement. The younger Monsif's remains were found in early December in a canal pump station in Mesa, according to Scottsdale Police. Monsif, 20, had been missing from his home in Scottsdale since Sept. 23. He had autism and a diminished mental capacity, according to police and his family. Monsif's remains were mostly skeletonized when they were found, according to Scottsdale police. The manner of his death was listed as undetermined on his death certificate, according to records from the Maricopa County Medical Examiner's Office. According to his family, the younger Monsif's skull and left arm still haven't been found. The family believes that the missing bones are somewhere in one of the branches of the canal system connected to the pump station where most of his skeleton was found. "We ask you, my friends, to please help us spread the word throughout social media," Monsif, Sr. said in the statement. "Finding his skull is essential in determining whether there is evidence of foul play as we strongly believe that someone is responsible for what happened to our son." The younger Monsif told his mother and his brother on the night before his disappearance that he was sorry and he would miss them, according to police, but when family members asked what he meant the younger Monsif blew off the question, saying it didn't matter. A canal that runs behind Monsif's home is the extension of the canal where his remains were found, police said. The station where his skeleton was discovered is the end of the line for that canal, 11 miles away from Monsif's home. Although the canal is surrounded by fencing, there is an area with a small gap between two fences near the intersection of Via Linda and Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard where police believe Monsif might have accessed the canal.
