UPDATE: She appears to be safe. She has sent a message to Dr. Jay Smith that he believes to be genuine. May the Lord be praised for His answer to prayer.
Fearless apologist Hatun Tash has been missing for over a month now. Those who have followed her ministry know that she is fearless and has been attacked many times.
Even though her team and others have reported her missing, the UK police refuse to search for her or investigate her disappearance.
She has been attacked multiple times. There is a man in jail in the UK right now because he had been planning to kill her and was caught. She is estranged from her family as she is a convert from islam and honor killing is a very real practice.
From what I am hearing, the police in the UK are refusing to investigate because she does not have a fixed address. While that will certainly make their job more difficult, I don't see how it should make an investigation into her current whereabouts impossible. If she were a criminal without a fixed address, would they refuse to even attempt to find her because of that?
A petition has been started by one of her friends to pressure the UK to find her. You can sign it here:

"12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19 In your patience possess ye your souls." ~ Luke 21
