Search on for Missing Tourist at Kaieteur National Park

Georgetown, Guyana – (September 01, 2015) The Department of Natural Resources has reported that a search operation is currently underway at the Kaieteur National Park (KNP), Region 8 to locate a female visitor to the park who has been reported missing.  The missing female was part of a group of persons on a tour, organised by a local tour operator; Air Services Limited.

It has been reported that the flight had a total of nine passengers and sometime during the tour, a female passenger was discovered to be missing. The National Parks Commission Rangers, who facilitated the tour, were joined by other staffers in executing an immediate search operation.

All relevant authorities including the Guyana Police Force (GPF), the Guyana Defence Force (GDF), and the Civil Defence Commission (CDC) were notified. An expanded search party will resume operations on Tuesday morning.  It is hoped that with the GDF and other relevant agencies involved, the passenger will be found. Tours to the KNP have since been suspended.
