Mother fears daughter missing, implores her return

A disconsolate Nalini Indal is pleading for the safe return of her twelve-year-old daughter, Rebekah King, who left her residence at Lot 25 West La Penitence Housing Scheme, Georgetown on Sunday afternoon and has since not returned.
Indal told Guyana Times on Wednesday that her niece, “Rose Mary,” visited her residence on the day her daughter disappeared and requested that the teen accompany her to visit her brother, who at the time was a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC).

Indal said she consented to the request and instructed her niece to return Rebekah at 16:30 hrs, but several days have since passed and she has since not heard from either her niece or her daughter.
The grieving mother relayed that she does not have the slightest clue where her daughter might be, but she suspects that her niece might have been up to no good.
“She never called me! I never get contact with them! I don’t know where she take my child! She just come out of ‘girls school’ (female correctional facility) in January. She been there for three years now! This girl gotta carry she away, because me daughter never left the house and went anywhere…,” Indal explained.
Guyana Times understands that Indal even visited the residence Rose Mary shares with her dad and Indal’s former husband (Rebekah’s father) at Beterverwagting, on the East Coast of Demerara, in hope that her daughter was there; but to no avail, since Rebekah’s father had seemingly been unbothered by the news of her absence, and had seemed least concerned at the situation.
“I explain and tell the father what it is, but the father said he don’t have time with her (Rose Mary), because he said if I see she anywhere, I must tell she to go and collect she clothes…,” Indal recounted. She added that she had received information that her nephew was discharged from the hospital since Monday.
Family members have on Monday lodged a report with the East La Penitence Police Station, giving the police detailed statements regarding the matter. The Police are, on a daily basis, keeping the family posted on developments in the ongoing investigation.
“I just want to say to Rose Mary – whichever side she get my child: please bring my child home. I need my child home!” Indal pleaded.
Rebekah was last seen wearing a blue damaged jeans and a green blouse, paired with green flats and a black head-tie. Rose Mary was last seen attired in a long, white, striped top with shorts and black boots.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of these two females is kindly asked to contact the nearest Police Station or the family of the missing girls on cell numbers 698-5499 or 663-1368.
