Last seen on CCTV with a companion on August 14, 2025, and reported missing two months later, no digital traces or sightings have surfaced. Investigators suspect foul play around August 15, 2025, and are urgently seeking public help — especially from her last known partner, whose silence is deeply frustrating. With searches including the Christchurch red zone yielding nothing, detectives are combing through massive digital data and witness accounts. They’re appealing to anyone with even the smallest clue to come forward — contact them via their website, call 105, or anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
