Both are correct.
One means you have absolutely no idea where he is or you want to emphasize that you dont know (maybe the person you are talking to does not believe you).
Two means you have a general idea where he is or a pretty good guess about where he is, but you arent exactly sure.

I believe that they are correct. The only thing is that the sentence one tells me that you don't know where he is and sentence two can mean that you're not sure where he is but you might.

Yes, I think they're both correct, although they have slightly different meanings.

Yes...they're correct...but the meaning is different....
1:it's for sure that I don't know where he is
2:it's a possibility for me to don't know where he is
I guess :)
