Quand il pleut, il pleut

Police in Malaysia are treating the disappearance of a "very vulnerable" 15-year-old London girl as an abduction, a charity has said.
Nora Quoirin, who has learning difficulties, went missing while on a family holiday in the southeast Asian country. She vanished at the weekend in a resort near Seremban, around 40 miles south of the capital Kuala Lumpur. The Lucie Blackman Trust (LBT) said Nora's father raised the alarm when he discovered she was missing from her bedroom at 8am on Sunday and her window was open. Nora, whose mother Meabh is originally from Belfast and whose father is French, is understood to have been travelling on an Irish passport. The family have been living in London for around 20 years. The charity, which is supporting the family, said: "The Lucie Blackman Trust has been informed that Malaysian police are now treating the disappearance of 15-year-old Nora Quoirin as an abduction. Her family are with police now." The organisation's chief executive Matthew Searle said: "This is a very vulnerable young girl missing in a remote location. "She has been missing for over 24 hours now and it is imperative that every resource available is deployed to search for her." Speaking from Belfast, Nora's aunt Aisling Agnew said: "Nora's parents and relatives in Ireland and France are distraught by her disappearance. "Nora is a child with special needs and has learning and developmental disabilities which make her especially vulnerable and we fear for her safety. "Nora would not know how to get help and would never leave her family voluntarily. We now consider this a criminal matter. "We are appealing to everyone to assist the local police in any way they can and to pass on any information that would help locate our beloved Nora without delay." Family friend Catherine Cook said: "It's out of character for Nora to go wandering off." She added: "To my knowledge the French government and the Irish government are helping them and it would be great if other agencies or governments worldwide could support them." A spokesman for Ireland's department of foreign affairs said: "We are aware of the case and providing consular assistance." https://news.sky.com/story/nora-quoi...aysia-11777753 |

This is very strange, why would she go out the window by herself, if she did want to go for a wander she would have gone out the door?, they had just arrived as well, I hope she is found soon

I hope she's found but stories like these rarely have a happy ending but here's hoping this can be an outlier.

The police are now saying now there is no evidence of abduction, I hope this doesn't turn into another Maddie

...I wonder why there isn’t more coverage of this in the news media...it’s a huge story...the Malaysian authorities are saying that there is no evidence of an abduction...someone must have seen something surely, if she wandered off..?..it’s very strange...while this poor girl is still missing....

well it can in terms of if she is never found, there is more than one angle to the Maddie story
Its a very strange story, the parents are adamant she would never wander away, but maybe being in such a different setting she was entranced by something The sniffer dogs losing her scent is odd though, if they arrived just a day or so before it happened the abduction would have been very opportunistic then

in an unfamiliar setting, the girl could easily have gone in search of something that was familiar to her. I don't think its improbable that she just wandered off

Yes,that's my guess too,as she probably wouldn't see the dangers of going for a walk on her own.lets hope they find her ok

..I read this morning that a voice recording is being made of a family member...and it’ll be played over loudspeakers to see if there is a response from Nora on hearing it...
..EDIT...the voice recording will be Nora’s mum... Last edited by Ammi; 08-08-2019 at 06:51 AM. |

Sorry to say but if she wandered off she has probably drowned, if abducted then that is not a great scenario either, poor kid
