A 15-year-old girl has been missing since June in Braga, confirmed to Notícias ao Minuto by a source within the Polícia de Segurança Pública (PSP).
The disappearance was reported to authorities by a Braga institution where the teenager resided.
The same source indicated that such occurrences are “frequent.” The most recent report to the PSP was submitted on June 30.
On Sunday, the girl’s mother made a public appeal on social media, stating that her daughter was last seen in Maximinos, a district in the city of Braga.
“Lara is my daughter, she is 15 years old and has been missing since June 25. Authorities cannot find her. She was last seen in Maximinos,” the mother wrote on Facebook, urging anyone with information about her daughter’s whereabouts to “inform” her or contact the PSP.
“Please share as much as possible and help me. She could be your daughter. Please help me find her,” she pleaded.
In response to some comments, the mother mentioned that her daughter is avoiding discovery and is being assisted by a 19-year-old male. Notícias ao Minuto could not confirm these details with the PSP.
