The 16-year-old Saskia W. was last seen on Wednesday, 12 February, around 4.15 p.m. at her current place of residence, a youth welfare institution in Bad Godesberg. Since then, neither the caretakers of the facility nor the relatives know where the missing youth is. According to the police, Saskia W. has contacted her family sporadically in the meantime, but did not disclose her current whereabouts.

According to the police, in the course of their investigations so far, indications of stays in Cologne and Essen were checked - but without success. There is currently no further information about possible other addresses where she might be staying, the police said.

Since a risk of danger cannot be ruled out according to the investigating officers, the Bonn police are asking the public for help. Saskia W. is 1.60 metres tall, has a strong stature, long blond hair and was last dressed in a camouflage jacket, tight grey jeans and light-coloured sneakers.

Anyone who has seen the missing person or can provide information about her whereabouts is requested to contact the police immediately on 0228-150 or the emergency number 110.
