Auckland City Police and the family of missing 34 year-old Laura Singh, are becoming increasingly concerned about her disappearance from her Greenlane home.
There have not been any reported sightings of Laura, a blonde Caucasian of slim build [see attached pics], since about 8pm on Monday, February 9, when she was last seen by her seven year-old daughter.
Laura's sister, Angela Kneeshaw, requested the following statement be released on behalf of the family:
“We are extremely concerned for Laura’s safety. It is highly unusual for Laura to be out of contact with friends and family. Her disappearance is totally out of character.
We really want Laura home safe and sound with us. Our family love her and we need her home. She is a loving and caring Mum of three young children, a daughter and a sister and we miss her dearly.
We are asking the public to look out for Laura and her car, a Hyundai Tucson, registration number ENJ73, and to notify Auckland Police immediately.
Please let the police know if you have any other information which could help us to bring Laura home.”
Detective Senior Sergeant Paul Newman says initial inquiries with family and friends have not revealed any clues to Laura's whereabouts or her intentions on Monday night.
"There is nothing we have observed thus far that suggests any foul play at Laura's home.
"She was having a text conversation with a friend until just after 8pm on Monday night, but since then there's been no word or sign of her. Her bank accounts have not been accessed and we're not aware that anything is missing from her home.
"We strongly urge anyone who has informaiton about Laura to contact Auckland City Police on 09 302 6641 or directly on 111."
