Police in Western Australia are concerned for the welfare of an elderly woman who has been missing since last December – but whose family only reported her missing last week.
Nathalie Casal – who is listed online as a GP – went for a trip three months ago and has not been seen since, but her family waited until March 7 to tell police she had not returned.
Dr. Casal, 71, told her family she had to walk the Bibbulmun Track, which runs from Kalamunda in Perth’s east to Albany and is more than 1,000km long.
She told them she was traveling with a large group of people and might not be available for a while.
“Police believe she may have started her journey from Mundaring, but she has not been in contact with family since,” police said in a statement issued on Thursday.
