A 24-year-old Indian woman has gone missing just days after she arrived in the United States for an arranged marriage , authorities in New Jersey said this week.
The woman, identified as Simran, landed in the US on June 20. She reportedly arrived in the country for an arranged marriage. However, investigators say there’s a possibility she never intended to follow through with the marriage and may have used the opportunity as a way to travel to the US.
Surveillance footage obtained by Lindenwold Police shows her standing alone, looking at her phone and appearing to wait for someone. Officials noted that she did not seem distressed in the video, New York Post reported.
Simran was last seen wearing gray sweatpants, a white T-shirt, black flip flops, and small diamond-studded earrings. She stands about 5 feet 4 inches tall, weighs approximately 150 pounds, and has a small scar on the left side of her forehead.
Simran has no known relatives in the United States and does not speak English. Her phone is an international device that only functions via Wi-Fi, further complicating efforts to contact her.
Police said they have also been unable to get in touch with her family in India.
Authorities are urging anyone with information about Simran’s whereabouts to contact Lindenwold Police Detective Joe Tomasetti.
