A 24-year-old Indian woman who arrived in the United States for a reported arranged marriage has gone missing, authorities have said.
Simran Simran was last seen shortly after her arrival from India in New Jersey on June 20. Surveillance footage reviewed by Lindenwold police showed her checking her phone and seemingly waiting for someone. Officers said she did not appear to be in distress in the video.
Ms Simran was reported missing on Wednesday, five days after her arrival, police confirmed. Officials investigating her disappearance said a preliminary probe revealed she travelled to the US for an arranged marriage.
Authorities are also exploring the possibility that the marriage was an excuse to obtain free airfare to America, as per The NY Post.
