Louhane disappeared in Val-de-Reuil on November 8. The apprentice waitress in a training center left her school that day and has not reappeared since.
“If you don’t come home for us, do it for your brothers and sisters and your grandparents.”proclaims Julien. These words are dedicated to Louhane, his 16-year-old daughter, who has disappeared since November 8 in Val-de-Reuil (Eure) without a trace. The teenager, an apprentice waitress in a training center, left her school that day and has not reappeared since. An investigation was opened and entrusted to the Val de Reuil police station. “All useful investigations are currently being carried out in an attempt to find the young girl”indicates the Évreux public prosecutor's office this Thursday.
“Have a nice day, I love you, see you soon”. These were the last words displayed on Julien's phone, the day his daughter disappeared, around 6 a.m., before she left for school. The father then explains that he did not react at the time, not suspecting anything abnormal. This “see you soon” now rings in his ears.

“She called her mother after class, around 4:50 p.m.”he remembers. The couple being separated, Louhane stayed with her father every other week, and that Friday, the teenager had to return to her mother, Amélie, in Évreux, to spend the weekend and the week at home. When she arrived by bus in Evreux, her boyfriend's father had to take her back by car to Amélie's home. However, this is not the route that the young girl would have taken, according to several witnesses.
Louhane was seen by several people taking a bus towards Vernon station (Eure) and other people also claim to have seen him getting off the bus in Vernon, declares Julien.
A “fragile” young girl
Contacted by the parents, neither her friends nor her boyfriend would be aware of Louhane's whereabouts, especially since the teenager would have recently changed her circle of friends and it would be a question of “bad company”specifies Julien. The young girl is also of a rather “fragile” nature: recently, her parents surprised her with cigarettes and drugs.
“I discovered that she smoked, we had a disagreement… I took my role as father to heart”confides Julien, his voice marked by emotion, specifying that his daughter is quite “upset” against him at the moment. “We said to ourselves that maybe she wanted to go to a party, and as there was tension between us, she didn’t tell us anything”says his father. But he explains that the teenager would necessarily have returned on Tuesday evening.
Phone turned off in briefcase
Another detail escapes the young girl's family: her cell phone. According to Julien, Louhane's phone was found in a briefcase closed with a padlock, at his training center. It was a friend of the teenager who warned the parents, without her knowing any more. She only saw Louhane put his cell phone in the briefcase. “I don’t know, we’re not great friends”would have retorted the student when Julien asked her for more details. At this point he assumes that Louhane seems to have perhaps “prepared his move”.
On Friday at school, Louhane was walking around with a suitcase since she was supposed to sleep at her mother's the following week. When a student lost his headphones, a teacher asked the students to open their bags. Louhane had to open her suitcase and the teacher then asked her why she had all her things with her. The teenager would have replied that she was going on vacation with her parents, continues Julien who wonders why his daughter did not tell the truth. Another mysterious element, she also announced to her boyfriend that she was going to her grandmother. Why tell all these lies? Where has Louhane really gone? For now, these questions remain unanswered. In the meantime, Julien hopes that his daughter will read these few lines and come home quickly.
