Missing: Maleina and Faloma Luhk.

On May 25, 2011, 9-year-old Maleina Luhk and her 10-year-old sister, Faloma, vanished from the island of Saipan while they waited to board a school bus.

The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) Department of Public Safety received a call that afternoon after the sisters failed to report to—or return home from—school. The FBI was brought in the same day to help find the girls.

But after more than a decade of searching—an effort conducted in lockstep with the community and federal and commonwealth partners—Faloma and Maleina are still missing.

As the 14th anniversary of their disappearance approaches, FBI Honolulu is encouraging the public to share any information they may have about what might’ve happened to the girls. The field office is also reminding the public that the Bureau is offering an award of up to $25,000 for information that leads to Faloma and Maleina’s whereabouts.
