POLICE are appealing for help in tracing a missing 17-year-old girl.

Fahra Nawaz was last seen at her home in Wingate Avenue in High Wycombe at 5.30pm yesterday, police said.

She is described as Asian, 5ft 4ins, of large build with long black hair, police say.

She was wearing traditional Asian-style clothing of blue trousers, a long purple top and black shoes when she was last seen.

Insp Glenn Jones said: “Fahra has learning difficulties and because of this she may be vulnerable to anyone who wanted to take advantage of her.

“I would urge anyone who has seen her, or who knows of her whereabouts, to come forward and speak to us as soon as possible.”

A photo has not been released by police.

Contact the 24-hour non-emergency line on 101 with any information on Fahra’s whereabouts.
