Shalomah (11) is still missing.
The student could be with a sect.
Now there are new details on the emails the foster father received.
Update from October 19, 2.30 p.m.:
In a live interview with
Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR)
, police spokesman Markus Trieb gave an overview of the current state of investigation in the search for the missing Shalomah. Where the girl is is therefore still uncertain on Tuesday afternoon. After the police called for witnesses on Sunday, the investigators received numerous information. According to Trieb, the investigations are still in full swing.
Trieb also confirmed in the conversation with the
BR
that the police are currently assuming that the emails that Shalomah's stepfather received from the "Twelve Tribes" sect are authentic.
According to the current investigation, an email was even signed by the girl's biological father.
The investigators therefore currently assume that the girl is with her birth parents and not in acute danger.
Nevertheless, the search for her would continue, the spokesman said.
However, it is still an investigation into a criminal offense, namely the "deprivation of minors".
As soon as Shalomah is found, the officers will take her into custody and hand her over to the youth welfare office to be taken back to her foster parents.
