After the disappearance of a 34-year-old mother in early November, the investigation was reclassified on Friday as "kidnapping and kidnapping", the prosecutor's office said on Saturday. She is being led by an investigating judge, as part of a judicial investigation opened on Tuesday, said the public prosecutor of Marseille, Nicolas Bessone.
Melody Mendes da Silva, a 34-year-old beautician and mother of two, left her home in the centre of Marseille late Friday afternoon and has not been heard from her family since.
She was reported missing by her boyfriend three days later, on Nov. 6, Bessone said.
