Police Appeal To Locate Four Missing Children
The PSNI are urging the public for help to find four missing children in County Fermanagh.
In an appeal on Sunday, 8 September, the police said they are seeking the public's help to locate the siblings Louise, 16, Marie Theresa, 15, Owen, 12 and eight-year old Christina Maughan.
The children were reported missing from the Lisnaskea area on 5 October.
It's believed they may have travelled out of Northern Ireland with their mother and father, Kathleen and Martin Maughan, and may be somewhere in the Republic of Ireland.
Chief Inspector, Lynne Corbett said: "We are asking that Kathleen or Martin, the children, or anyone who knows of their whereabouts, get in touch with police and let us know where the children are and that they are safe. I would also ask that they be returned to Northern Ireland as soon as possible. Police can be contacted by calling 101, quoting reference 1181 05/10/23."
The photograph provided of the Maughan family was taken five / six years ago and whilst the children have obviously aged since the photograph was taken, they are still recognisable from the photo, and the mother, Kathleen, is said to be of slim build.
