“I don’t know where you got it that you have to wait twelve hours to report someone missing. If you believe someone’s life is in danger or that person is missing, like it was reported earlier, we immediately activate our search parties and our search teams. We don’t ask anyone to wait for any twelve or twenty-four or forty-eight hours; we treat missing person’s reports as urgent as possible.”
