This Tuesday, September 26, at the end of a second day of fruitless citizen raids, the Saverne public prosecutor provided an update on the investigation.

Where is Lina? The 15-year-old girl vanished into thin air this Saturday, September 23 in Plaine, Bas-Rhin. According to the Schirmeck gendarmerie brigade, the young girl left her home on foot around 11:15 a.m. to reach the Saint-Blaise-La-Roche station, located approximately 3 kilometers from her home. There, she had to take the train to join her boyfriend in Strasbourg. But she never made it to the station. Indeed, according to the Saverne public prosecutor’s office, the young girl would not even have “boarded a train”.

A wanted notice was issued by the gendarmerie, who opened an investigation for “disturbing disappearance” because the young girl is not considered to have run away. The teenager is 1.60m tall and has shoulder-length hair. She was dressed in a gray dress and a white down jacket.
