THE MOTHER OF missing teenager Emela John has denied social media reports that her daughter has been found.
An article was published on a popular blog which said the 19-year-old who went missing since October 7 last year was “alive and well in Africa”.
Tracey Lawrence told NATION ONLINE she was aware of what had been published and was hurt by the constant updates on the blog about her missing daughter.
“That is just a bunch of rubbish,” she said.
“That is absolutely untrue but I have no further comment,” a distraught Lawrence said when contacted earlier today.
Efforts to reach police public relations officer acting assistant superintendent David Welch proved unsuccessful. (MR)
