LUCKNOW: In some success for the Lucknow police and relief for 32 families, the cops found 32 of the 38 people missing from the Hazratganj police circle of the state capital this year.

The maximum number of people missing were from Hazratganj police station which were 15. Out of these 15 cases 11 people were rescued by the police. Those missing from Cannt were 13 in number and 12 of them were traced and nine of the 10 missing were from Cannt police circle.

Police even counselled those roped in. Circle Officer (CO) Hazratganj and other cops met the family members of persons still missing and whose reports have been lodged with various police stations.

The police also assured that such counselling would continue in future too. Earlier too such effort was made by cops in 2008 and meetings were conducted in Reserve Police Lines but then after the initial enthusiasm the effort died down.

The police also told the family members of those missing that they should always give a photograph of the person missing because in the absence of that it became difficult for them to carry on the search.

OAKLAND — The police tip line for information about missing 5-year-old Fremont boy Hasanni Campbell was restored Wednesday morning after reports that callers were unable to leave messages.

"We had one individual who called the tip line and left 39 or 40 messages with information that was not credible," Oakland police spokesman Jeff Thomason said. "We're contacting that person to ask them to stop, and the tip line should be open now."

Investigators are asking anyone with information on Hasanni to call 510-777-8572 or 510-777-3211. If either number doesn't work, investigator Sgt. Gus Galindo is available at 510-238-7934.

Hasanni, who suffers from cerebral palsy and has difficulty walking, was reported missing from Oakland's Rockridge district Aug. 10 by his foster father, 38-year-old Louis Ross, of Fremont. Ross told police he'd left the boy briefly in a parking lot behind a shoe store in the 6000 block of College Avenue, where Ross' fiancee — who is Hasanni's aunt — works as a manager. When Ross returned to the car moments later, he told police, the boy was gone.

"We're continuing to investigate, but at this point there is no evidence that a crime was committed," Thomason said. "It's still being treated as a missing-person case."

"Investigators today are following up on what leads they have, but we're starting to get to that point of feeling helpless," Thomason added. "That's why we're asking anyone who saw the boy to call in and give us some facts.

"People calling in now are saying things like, 'I had a dream he was here,' or offering opinions. Opinions don't help. We need people to call in with facts about times and places they saw him."

Police and Crime Stoppers of Oakland are offering up to $10,000 in reward money for information that leads to the boy's recovery.

Antonio Anabo, owner of Tone's Auto Detail in Oakland, is holding a fundraiser from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday. For $20, people can have their cars detailed inside and out. The shop is at 411 W. Macarthur Blvd. Anabo plans to donate 50 percent of the proceeds to Hasanni's foster parents. He also will sell hot dogs, hot links and ribs at the shop and donate at least part of the proceeds to the family.

The family of missing Delhi Township woman Kristan Strutz is hopeful that she is alive and implores anyone who knows something about her whereabouts to cooperate with police.

“We’re hopeful this is a missing person kind of thing,” said Larry Emley, Kristan’s cousin and family spokesman. “We try not to think about the fact
that she might be deceased.”

Strutz’s husband, John Strutz, who reported his wife missing Saturday, has been arrested on charges of tampering with evidence and obstructing official business. He remains jailed in Hamilton County in lieu of $1 million bond.

Court records say he concealed human remains.

The Hamilton County Communications Center today released a recording in which John Strutz first reports his wife missing.


• Listen to the 911 call

In the call, made Saturday, the 30-year-old Delhi man tells the dispatcher: "Nobody in her family knows where she is at. And I don't know, I'm kind of starting to freak out because this is not like her."

Strutz explains in detail that he woke up at about 8:30 a.m. and he believed his wife had already left for a day of shopping with her aunt. But, when her aunt called looking for Kristan, he knew something was wrong.

Rumors are flying in the community that Strutz was killed and her husband’s lawyer has said he believes John is under investigation for the death and hiding her body in a garbage can.

“There are horrible rumors out there,” Emley said. “They are very cruel and hurtful to the family.

“Don’t believe them,” Emley implored.

Police, who have searched the Strutz’ house and yard for days, as well of the Ohio River bank and the Rumpke dump, have directed all questions to prosecutors. Prosecutors are staying quiet on the case.

Hamilton County Coroner O’dell Owens has confirmed his office has some remains, but would not elaborate.

Investigators were back at the couple's Greenwall Avenue home today and were continuing their probe into Strutz's disappearance.

Police said their searches at the landfill and on the riverbank are now complete, but the investigation continues, said Delhi police Lt. Joe Macaluso.

Macaluso would not say what detectives were looking for or if anything was found at any of the locations.

Assistant Hamilton County Prosecutor Mark Piepmeier visited the Strutzes’ Greenwell Avenue home Tuesday afternoon to familiarize himself with the crime scene.

Kristan’s husband, John P. Strutz, 30, reported her missing Saturday afternoon, telling officers he last saw his 28-year-old wife Friday night.

Strutz is being held in the Hamilton County Jail on more than $1 million bond.

Strutz’s lawyer, Simon Groner, said Monday he believes his client is under investigation for killing his wife and putting her body in a garbage can.

Deanna Swindle, John Strutz’s sister, said, “I don’t believe my brother has done anything. He would never hurt her.”

Swindle, 35, of Brinkley, Ark., said the family is concerned about Kristan.

“We’re hoping and praying that everything with Kristan will be OK. We ask that people pray for everyone involved.”

Groner said at first his client cooperated with police, even allowing officers to search his car and house. But when he realized he was the target of the investigation, Strutz asked for a lawyer, ending the interview.

“My last instruction to him was not to cooperate with police,” Groner said. “At this point we’re in a fight.”

Outside the Strutz home Tuesday a small memorial grew, with cellophane wrapped roses, pastel-colored teddy bears and a balloon that said “We love you” placed under a tree.

Strutz, a welder who was laid off last spring, told police Saturday afternoon that he woke up that morning and found his wife missing, according to a missing person’s report.

He said he hadn’t seen her since about 10 p.m. Friday and didn’t know where she was.

Police interviewed Strutz into the early hours of Sunday morning, then allowed him to go home, Groner said.

With Strutz’s permission, officers searched his car and home. Groner said officers seized four bottles of bleach, which he said his client had used to clean his deck.

The couple has three daughters, ages 3, 5, and 6. Kristan Strutz has another child from a previous relationship.

She is on a planned medical leave from her job at Hillebrand Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.

Ms. Wells, 23, was last seen at Graham Central Station nightclub in Longview on Aug. 3, 2006.

HENDERSON -- The sixth annual national tour to bring awareness of missing children and adults will stop here at 6:30 p.m. Thursday.

The "On the Road to Remember Tour" of volunteers from the North Carolina-based Community United Effort Center for Missing Persons will be at Henderson Plaza Shopping Center, 2309 U.S. Highway 79 South.

There will be a concert by Cal Riley. People are invited to bring lawn chairs, listen to the music and look over pictures of missing people.


The Henderson stop will be held by families of East Texas missing persons Shirley Hunt, Jimmy Charles Scott and Brandi Ellen Wells.

Ms. Hunt. 72, of Henderson, an Alzheimer's patient, disappeared in June 2007 when she went for a stroll along County Road 454.

Scott, 50, disappeared Nov. 3, 2001, in Cherokee County.

Ms. Wells, 23, was last seen at Graham Central Station nightclub in Longview on Aug. 3, 2006.

The tour began Tuesday in Roberson County, N.C., and will cover approximately 4,800 miles. It will include 23 preplanned rally stops in seven states to promote a mixture of 104 missing person cases before the tour ends on Aug. 29.

This year's tour honors Rachel Cooke, a cross-country runner who disappeared during a morning jog Jan. 10, 2002, in her neighborhood in the
North lake development on Farm-to-Market Road 3405, northwest of Georgetown.

"After many years, cases fade from the public's radar, but for the families and friends of the missing, the nightmare continues," said the center founder, Monica Caison, who is leading the caravan of volunteers. "We are traveling across the country to make sure no case fades from memory."

The cases featured are a small number compared to statistics of thousands of missing person cases reported annually, Ms. Caison said.

The annual tour was created to generate new interest in cold cases of missing people across the nation, according to the center founder.

Amber Alerts must be protected from overuse and the RCMP's decision not to issue the high-profile public plea after a 12-year-old autistic boy went missing was the right one, says a proponent of the program.

John Fulton, whose beaming smile graces several photos released by his family, was found slain on Monday evening in a neighbour's home after he vanished from the steps of his Grand Forks, B.C., townhouse complex two days earlier.

His family became the latest anguished Canadian family to say police should have used an Amber Alert to publicize their child's disappearance.

Fulton's autism meant he couldn't roam far from the "comfort zone" of the subdivision where he lived, his family said.

"We do not know if this could have saved Johnny's life, nor do we wish to speculate," said the statement.

"However, we feel strongly that any child with autism should automatically qualify as an Amber Alert."

But Linda Patterson, who was involved in getting the program introduced in New Brunswick in 2003, said the RCMP had nothing to go on.

"As far as I'm concerned they've done the right thing because if they started issuing Amber Alerts freely, without a lot of information, people would stop paying attention to them," she said from her home in Oromocto, N.B.

"My heart goes out to the family, it really does," said Patterson, who is president of the Block Parent Program of Canada and her provincial chapter and is also chairwoman of the Crime Prevention Association in New Brunswick.

Police have defended their decision not to use the Amber Alert system in Fulton's case, saying it didn't meet the requirements.

RCMP Cpl. Annie Linteau said the case didn't meet the requirements for an Amber Alert, which is triggered when police believe a child under 18 has been abducted and is in danger.

The criteria also stipulates there be information on a suspect or vehicle so the information can be broadcast by the media or be posted on electronic highway-condition signs.

"I can say that this particular case did not meet the Amber Alert criteria because we did not have any information about the suspect vehicle or about an abductor," she said.

"You want people to really pay attention when there is an Amber Alert. You don't want to run into a situation where there is an Amber Alert every day because people just wouldn't pay attention to it."

Last year alone, police received reports of 12,000 missing children in B.C., she said, adding stranger abductions are extremely rare.

She said police sought the public's help in locating Fulton by issuing a news release.

Cpl. Dan Moskaluk said police conducted an air and dog search after the boy vanished at about 8 p.m. on Saturday and continued it on Sunday before search and rescue efforts began.

"Normally we do not do a lot of night searches but in this case on Saturday night it went on till 5 a.m. with our resources and then again the next day and then well into the next night with search and rescue," Moskaluk said.

He said police had posters of the missing boy up around the community by 8 a.m. on Sunday, 12 hours after Fulton's disappearance.

Police in Woodstock, Ont. faced the same scrutiny for not issuing an Amber Alert after the disappearance of eight-year-old Tori Stafford earlier this year.

The Ontario Provincial Police are currently co-ordinating a review of the province's Amber Alert program.

A petition dubbed "Tori's Law" called for changes to the alert criteria and gained momentum online, ballooning to over 28,000 signatures by the end of May.

Acting Insp. David Rektor said the review could be completed by the fall.

Police were also criticized for not issuing an Amber Alert when 12-year-old Karissa Boudreau of Bridgewater, N.S., disappeared from her mother's car.

Dianna Cann, executive director of Child Find Nova Scotia, said at the time that police did not have any information about an abductor being involved in the death of the girl, whose mother pleaded guilty to strangling her in January 2008.

Fulton's family also said in their statement that they urge police to work with the Autism Society of Canada "to educate themselves about the realities of autism."

Michael Lewis, president of the society's national and B.C. chapters, said the group has been in touch with the RCMP in the last year on how best to deliver information about autism and other disabilities to officers.

But Lewis said he's not sure if that would have helped the Mounties in this case.

"I guess we could have reiterated to them the family's articulation that it would be highly unusual for this boy to have wandered off," he said.

But he said that unlike Fulton, some autistic children, like his own son, do wander off, depending on the degree of their condition.
