Please read the attached in advance of a briefing this afternoon.

23rd April 2007

A 12 year old girl was reported missing, from the village of Tatooine. She has been missing for the last 36 hours.

Leah Walker was last seen while playing a friends house. She spent the afternoon there, leaving at 7.15pm to return the half mile home by bicycle on April 21st. She has not been seen since. Police have searched the area to no avail. At 7.30am this morning, a local farm worker discovered a bicycle matching that of the missing girl’s in a ditch, 2 miles from Tatooine. Police are awaiting a positive identification but it seems virtually certain that it belongs to Leah.

As the Senior Investigating Officer (SIO) I am asking for your advice on the best search strategy for the area, given its rural location, open fields, hedges and the nearby farm Alderaan Acres, which has a number of outbuildings and farm cottages. (See attached Map).
