AS part of National Missing Persons Week, Tasmania Police is seeking information about the disappearance of Upper Derwent Valley girl Eve Askew who was last seen on November 16, 1991, aged 14.
Eve went missing from her family home at Fitzgerald, near Maydena. At the time of her disappearance she was 157cm tall, slim build, with red hair and a fair complexion with freckles.
Eve’s thumbs were distinctive, described as though they have been pushed down and hadn’t quite grown back to their full length. She was shy and reserved.
Investigators suspect Eve met with foul play. Extensive investigations, searches and appeals for information have not located her. Her parents have since passed away, but other family members are still seeking answers to her disappearance.
A reward of up to $100,000 remains on offer for any information that results in the conviction of person/s responsible for Eve’s disappearance.
Anyone with information in relation to Eve’s disappearance is asked to come forward. Information can be provided to Tasmania Police on 131 444 or Crime Stoppers Tasmania anonymously at crimestopperstas.com.au or on 1800 333 000.
