A FAMILY in Johor is hoping for the safe return of their teenage daughter who went missing after being dropped off at school, Malaysia Nanban reported.
The 17-year-old was dropped off at her school in Paloh at 6.30am by her mother, who left after the girl walked into the school.
When the mother returned at around 2.30pm on her motorbike to pick her up, there was no sign of her.
When the mother went to check with the teachers, she was shocked to find out that Nisha did not attend school that day.
Kluang police chief Asst Comm Bahrin Mohd Nor said a police report was lodged, adding that investigations revealed that there were no family problems prior to the girl’s disappearance.
