PUCHONG: Nora Anne Quoirin, a special needs 15-year-old who disappeared overnight from her holiday bedroom at an upscale forest resort in Seremban, Negri Sembilan is still regarded as a missing persons case and not an abduction, local police clarified.
“The case is still classified as missing persons. Not abduction,” Deputy Negri Sembilan police chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Che Zakaria Othman said, reported Malay Mail.
He confirmed receiving a phone call from London this morning, but said the transmission was unclear as he was in the jungle.
London-based charity group The Lucie Blackman Trust, which helps provide crisis support group for overseas Britons, claimed that local police are investigating Quoirin’s disappearance as an abduction.
Che Zakaria also confirmed that the number of search and rescue personnel have been increased from 119 to 159 involving the police, Fire and Rescue Services Department, Civil Defence, Rela and Forestry Department personnel.
“Apart from these, locals including the indigenous community in the vicinity are also roped in to help.
“A platoon from the General Operations Force (GOF) based in Cheras is on its way here, increasing the search party to 159 members,” he told reporters.
Quoirin had gone missing from The Dusun, a tropical rainforest resort in Seremban on 4 Aug after arriving with her family for a holiday.
