Fears for missing Irish expat who vanished from Spain’s Costa del Sol more than two weeks ago

THE family of a missing Irish expat have launched an appeal after she vanished from the Costa del Sol more than two weeks ago.

Nadiah Scully (pictured above) was last seen in Benalmadena on August 2 and her relatives said she has not been seen or heard from since.

Her mother Tracy Scully told the Olive Press: “The fact that her boyfriend passed away and she has not contacted anyone is of great concern… that’s what would be very unusual. Plus she is on her own now.”

Tracy explained that Nadiah’s partner, also Irish, died from a pulmonary edema on August 11.

They had been together for around two-and-a-half years.

In a post on an expat Facebook group, she had previously written: “Hi everyone, this is my daughter Nadiah Scully/Farrell.

“She was last seen in Benalmadena on Aug 2nd and theres been no contact or sighting of her since.”

Nadiah is believed to have moved to the resort popular with Brits some months ago.

Some locals claimed they might have seen her in the resort last week, but Tracy said there has been no reported sightings this week.
