As part of the review of the search for missing Belgian woman, Celine Cremer, planning is currently underway to conduct swift water searching in the Philosopher Falls area at Waratah tomorrow.
Inspector Anthea Maingay said the search has involved a broad range of police and SES resources, including ground crews, police drones and helicopters, specialist search and rescue rappelling, and ATVs.
“Unfortunately no further signs of Celine have been located since her car was found in the Philosopher Falls car park on Tuesday, 27 June,” she said.
“Weather conditions have been challenging, with personnel facing freezing temperatures, snow, rain and strong winds over the past week.”
“Tomorrow we will utilise more resources to conduct swift water searching in the area.”
“We’re doing this in a bid to find some answers for Celine’s family, before we begin to scale back the search.”
“Last week we received expert medical advice indicating Celine could not have survived the conditions she has been exposed to.”
“Her car has been in the Philosopher Falls carpark since at least Tuesday, 20 June and our information indicates it could have been there even earlier.”
“Our thoughts continue to be with Celine’s family and loved ones at this difficult time.”
The Philosopher Falls walking track at Waratah remains closed to the public.
