The Federal Bureau of Investigation launched yesterday a new website dedicated to locating sisters Faloma and Maleina Luhk, who have been missing for over seven years now.<\/p>\n
According to the FBI, the website, www.luhksisters.org, will provide an easy way to submit tips and share information that could help solve the mystery behind the Luhk sisters\u2019 disappearance.<\/p>\n
Elbert Quitugua, the grandfather of the girls, described the creation of the website as a good move on the part of the FBI because some people are scared of coming out in the open about what they know. With this website, it\u2019s going to be anonymous.<\/p>\n
Quitugua said that, with the website, people can come provide information via the website instead of becoming known as the one who gave the tip. <\/p>\n
He said this way makes it more accessible and easy for tips and information.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe family is still praying that somebody will come out and give information to close this case. It\u2019s very painful for the family,\u201d Quitugua said.<\/p>\n
In its press release yesterday, FBI encouraged anyone with any information to visit the site and share information\u2014\u201ckeeping in mind that no tip is too small.\u201d<\/p>\n
The FBI said it remains dedicated to working with the Department of Public Safety to find the missing girls and is urging anyone in the community who has knowledge of the matter to visit the website or contact the FBI\u2019s Saipan office at (670) 322-6934.<\/p>\n
Faloma and Maleina, who were ages 10 and 9 at the time of their disappearance, were last seen waiting at a bus stop shelter near their home in As Teo, Saipan on the morning of May 25, 2011.<\/p>\n
The sisters\u2019 disappearance sparked a monthlong search conducted by FBI, DPS, and other law enforcement agencies as well as civilian volunteers on Saipan, but no trace was found on their whereabouts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
