Missing French girl traced to Alwar farmhouse, Rajasthan police tweets news

Days since the twenty-one-year-old French girl – Gaelle Chouteau–went missing while travelling from Pushkar to Jaipur, the girl was traced to a farmhouse in Chapuanki police station area of Alwar, informed SHO Sunil Jangid.

Earlier mystery around her whereabouts deepened on Thursday morning when news spread that she was seen in Tapukara area of Alwar. Upon getting the news, the Ajmer police sprung into action and tried to ascertain if the information was correct.

It may be recalled here that the girl had reached Pushkar alone from Jodhpur and had stayed in a hotel for two days in Holi Chowk area of Pushkar. On June 1 she checked out of the hotel to travel to Jaipur, however, since then she went missing. Her phone was switched off and she has even failed to reach out to her family members and friends. The girl’s family used social media to inform the police and locals about her, following which even Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj contacted the French Embassy in the matter. Meanwhile the Ajmer police formed a special team to find the missing girl.

On Wednesday, Alexandre Ziegler, Ambassador of France to India, tweeted, “Ms Galle Chouteau, 20 years, 5’3”, has been missing since 1st June 2018. When last in touch, she was leaving Pushkar to go to Jaipur. If you have any information about her, please write to us at: admin-francais - new-delhi-amba@diplomatie.gouv.fr (sic).”
