Ms Wielga is believed to have checked out of her accommodation in Tongariro on 30 August and was due to fly out of Auckland later that day.

Her family and Police are concerned for her welfare and want to establish that she’s safe. Ms Wielga does not have a phone or computer, and it’s possible she doesn’t realise Police are trying to locate her.

Police would like to thank those people who have provided information to date.

We encourage anyone who has seen Ms Wielga, or who has information that might help us locate her, to get in touch.

Please contact Police via 105 and quote the file number 240905/7641.
