Neskie Manuel
May 24, 2011 -- After 15 days, an intensive search of the area around Neskonlith Lake has yet to reveal a clue as to the whereabouts of missing Neskonlith Band Councillor Neskie Manuel.
"We're 80% certain that Neskie is not in the area that has been searched," said Chief Judy Wilson (Neskonlith). "Searches by Secwepemc and local people with extensive knowledge of the surrounding areas will continue. This week the RCMP will do a detailed search of Neskonlith Lake using side scan sonar," she added.
Given that Neskie has traveled extensively, the Manuel family has decided is to expand the search across North America.
"Neskie might be lost outside of the search area. We're anxious to find him and ensure that he's well," said his father Arthur Manuel. "We're calling for people to help keep Neskie in the public eye. Please post the official RCMP poster everywhere; on the internet, along highways, in parks, at community centres and in car windows," he added.
"Tips to the local RCMP or local police are the key to locating him," said Mr. Manuel. "Our family is offering a $1,000.00 reward for finding Neskie," he added.
The Manuel family extends their heartfelt thanks to all those who have helped, and continue to help, in the search for Neskie Manuel.
