SHAH ALAM: A 12-year-old local girl has been reported missing after going down to retrieve food from a car parked below her residence at a flat in Bandar Bukit Tinggi 1, Klang, on Tuesday (Oct 8) afternoon.

South Klang OCPD Asst Comm Cha Hoong Fong said his team received a report on the incident at 8.59 pm Tuesday.

He said preliminary investigations revealed that the girl went to the parking area after being asked by her mother to fetch food from the car at around 2.20pm.

"The girl went down alone and did not return home. At 3pm, the victim’s mother began searching for her but could not find her,” he said in a statement here Wednesday (Oct 9).

Following that, Cha said the victim’s mother lodged a report, and the South Klang district police headquarters (IPD) opened an inquiry paper.

Cha said the missing girl, named Madrafataha Indal Bangsawan, was described as slim, fair-skinned, with shoulder-length hair and a height of 150cm.

She was last seen wearing a green T-shirt and black track pants.
