Where was Lazarus?

While completing my set of reflections for the coming year for the Claretian Tear Off calendar, I was caught badly by this question I asked myself: Where was Lazarus when Jesus was crucified?  No Gospel or any other tradition makes any reference to Lazarus post his meal with Jesus (after Jesus raises him up).  What exactly did Lazarus do during the whole passion of Jesus?  Did he at all appear on the scene or hide himself, for the gospel of John (12: 11) clearly states that the Jews were after his blood too?

I really would like to know what happened to the character or more precisely what and where was he during the crucial moments of Jesus?
