London, Aug 5 (IANS) The disappearance of a 15-year-old London girl in Malaysia was being treated as an abduction and a missing person case by the police, according to a charity.
Nora Quoirin, who has special needs, arrived there with her family on Saturday for a "trip of a lifetime", the BBC reported on Monday.
But on Sunday her parents awoke to find she was missing.
The charity, Lucie Blackman Trust (LBT), which is supporting the family, said the police were searching and investigating in the resort and surrounding areas.
Nora, the daughter of an Irish-French couple who have lived in London for around 20 years, was staying with her family at the Dusan resort in a nature reserve near Seremban, 39 miles south of the capital Kuala Lumpur.
The LBT said her father raised the alarm when he discovered her missing from her bedroom at 8 a.m. on Sunday.
A spokesman for the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs said: "We are aware of the case and are providing consular assistance."
