He can: He can send light pulses to him. And the poor victim can send light
pulses back. After all, he has not passed the EH yet.

Doing so, the observer will easily be able to convince himself that the victim
is still there. He's a bit slow of speech, but still responding. And the victim
will find it hard to understand the observer because he's speaking a bit fast,
but... well, from a theoretical point of view, they'll have no trouble still
communicating :)
