POLICE in a Kent town are becoming increasingly concerned for the welfare of a 31-year-old Ethiopian woman who has been missing since Sunday, July 16.

Tarikkua Kassa Telia has been working as a housekeeper at a home in Lucy Avenue, Folkestone, for more than two months.

She left there at 3pm to go shopping at the Cheriton Road Morrisons, but has not been seen or heard from since.

Miss Telila is black, 5ft 5in tall, of slim build with dark pony-tailed hair. She was wearing grey jeans with a white T-shirt and a light-grey short-length jacket.

Anyone who can help is asked to contact police on 01303 850055.
