Police plea in search for woman missing for two months

- By Annie Butterwort­h

DETECTIVES investigat­ing the disappeara­nce of a woman who vanished two months ago have issued an appeal to help find her.

Officers boarded buses and spoke to passengers yesterday as the search continued for Julie Reilly.

The last CCTV footage of the 47-year-old, from Govan, Glasgow, was captured at 5pm on February 6 in an Aldi store on the city’s Paisley Road West. She was reported missing on February 15 after failing to turn up for a number of appointmen­ts.

Detectives carried out inquiries in Shieldhall Road yesterday morning. Miss Reilly was a frequent user of local transport and officers spoke to passengers and handed out leaflets.

Police Scotland has employed its underwater unit, dog branch and specialist search officers.

Detective Chief Inspector Mark Bell said: ‘It is imperative we do everything we can to find Julie. I am hopeful these operations will help jog people’s memories. We know she used local buses a lot and it’s possible some of the people who use these routes regularly may have seen her.

‘Understand­ably, her family are incredibly concerned and just want to know what has happened to her. I would appeal to anyone who has any informatio­n to contact us.’

Miss Reilly is white, 5ft, with a medium build and dyed blonde short hair.
