SINGAPORE: The Singapore Police Force (SPF) is appealing for information on 14-year-old Ms Jasmine Tay Xin Yi. She was last seen near Block 183B Boon Lay Avenue at about 12:30 pm on Aug 19.

At the time, she was wearing a black shirt and shorts.

According to the SPF, all information received will be kept strictly confidential.

Any small details from the public can help locate a missing person

A location, time, piece of clothing or other observation could help investigators establish where someone may have been. Public members can call the police directly or submit information online.

There is no need for members of the public to speculate about what may have happened. The useful step is to pass relevant information to the authorities.

Public help matters, but so does restraint

Missing-person appeals can quickly spread through social media, where information may travel faster than official updates.

Sharing information can help when accurate details reach people who may have seen the person, but it also underscores the importance of responsible sharing.

People should stick to information provided by the police rather than adding guesses or unverified claims. A missing-person appeal is about finding someone safely, not building a story around limited facts.

For Jasmine’s family and those looking for her, even a small piece of reliable information could help in the missing person search.
