A Cuban mother is in a state of desperation as she searches for her teenage daughter, who vanished on Monday in Havana after leaving school. Susana Cruz took to Facebook to share a photograph of her daughter, Melani Hernández Cruz, who is 16 years old.
"She was last seen at the entrance of her school, the Cepero Bonilla Polytechnic, located near Plaza Roja here in Havana. She never made it to her classes. We haven't heard from her since 8:15 that morning," she explained.
The young girl was dressed in her school uniform, consisting of a blue skirt, a white T-shirt, and a yabó headscarf. "Her hair is currently shoulder-length. Any information, please call 52656716, 55583958, or 52664593. We are desperate," the anguished mother emphasized in a subsequent post.
The distressed mother confirmed that she has filed a report with the police.
