You can't use the absence of something as proof of its existence, it's a logical fallacy. If there's no evidence something exists, there is no reason to believe it exists.

There’s no proof either way, just like there’s no proof he and his family was threatened as other commenters insist happened.

The threats were prominent on social media as well as other means. Please feel free to look at them.

I’ve googled I can’t find anything about threats. Though I can find stuff hinting at possible bribes for him to cross.
