The 28-year-old travelled to her mother’s home on Saturday, December 21, to celebrate the festive season but went missing soon after.
She is said to have left the family compound for what seemed like a brief evening walk on December 23.
When she didn’t return, her family grew worried, especially after realizing she had left behind her phones, car keys, and other personal items.
The family reported her disappearance to the Gikono police post and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in Kenol.
The investigation initially faced challenges due to the lack of traceable devices or a vehicle. However, police later learned that Lilian had made three phone calls on the evening of December 28.
