Between 400 and 600 people are reported missing in Slovenia every year, a third of them being adolescents or children.
Most are found within a day, while more than 90% of the children are found within four hours, said Damjan Miklič, head of the Police Expert Network on Missing Persons, on the sidelines of an international conference on missing persons. He said that investigating missing persons was difficult precisely because there are so many unknowns at the outset. According to the police, there are currently 237 missing persons reported in Slovenia.
