Mother leaves; Dad disappears; daughter missing ...
We have in Britain what amounts to a right to disappear. Thousands of people vanish from home every year and provided they are over 17, and there is no reason to believe that they are in danger. it is their own business and the police are not bound to investigate. Jack Pizzey reports on the case of a businessman who vanished and turned up in another town with another name and papers to prove it; the case of a young mother who phoned the police to say she was alive and well and would not return home; and the case of a missing girl which has baffled the police and Interpol for nine years.
