Lillia had previously been seen boarding the 247 bus at around 1.50pm on Saturday, September 12. Detectives are now urging anyone who may have seen Lillia to come forward, while asking people to check mobile phone footage they may have captured. Police say their investigation now covers the whole of Greater Manchester, with officers across the force supporting the search. The latest development comes as her family continues to wait desperately for her safe return. Earlier this week, her mum Jessica issued an emotional plea for her daughter to come home. She said: “Lillia, you’re not in any trouble, I’m really, really worried. “It’s been four nights now and you need to be safe. Please come home, we all love you very much.” Officers and staff have been working alongside partner agencies, handing out hundreds of missing leaflets and issuing repeated social media appeals. Following the latest appeal, Chief Superintendent Helen Critchley, of GMP’s Bolton district, said: “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the public and the media for your continued support as we continue our inquiries to locate Lillia. “Our thoughts continue to be with her family, and friends, I would like to thank her mum for her support with our appeals over the past few days. “She has shown incredible strength throughout, and we are doing all we can to bring her daughter back home to her. “Officers are making every effort to locate Lillia, and our team have been working through hours of CCTV footage and exploring every avenue to try and find her. “I can now confirm that our last known current sighting was of Lillia at Manchester Piccadilly bus station at 10.36am on the morning on Monday 14 September. “We can also share that she exited the number 36 bus as Piccadilly, with her boarding it in Salford. That bus service travels from Bolton through Salford and into Manchester city centre.” Lillia is described as a slim white girl, around 5ft 5ins tall, with light brown hair and glasses. She was last seen wearing a black zip-up hooded top, light blue baggy jeans and a black Nike backpack.
