Amy Fitzpatrick who disappeared in Spain on New Year's Day.


The campaign is being led by the family of missing Dublin teenager Amy Fitzpatrick, who disappeared in Spain on New Year's Day.petition is due to be presented to the European Commission in Dublin today as part of a campaign for an EU-wide alert system for missing children.
The 15-year-old's parents will present today's petition of 20,000 signatures along with Sinn Fein MEP Mary Lou McDonald.Ms McDonald is calling on the Taoiseach to raise the idea of an alert system with the French President when he visits Ireland later this month. mother of Amy Fitzpatrick, the 15-year-old Irish girl who went missing from Calahonda, Mijas Costa, when she was coming home from a friend’s house on New Year’s Day says that she is optimistic and that she still hopes to find her daughter. The investigation has revealed no clues to her whereabouts and her family no longer believe that she may have simply run away because she was unhappy. Their hypothesis is that she is being held against her will by an older, English-speaking man, who may have promised to get her a passport and who is telling her what to do. Amy’s mother has said that the young girl would not be able to stay away from her loved-ones for so long without letting them know she was OK. She believes the girl is no longer in Spain, but doesn’t think she is in England or Ireland, either. In any case, the family have not given up hope and ask police to continue searching and doing all they can to find Amy. Amy is said to be thin and pale, 1.65 tall, with black hair and blue eyes and was wearing dark tracksuit bottoms, a t-shirt with the word ‘Diesel’ and a pair of black boots. She was carrying a red bag containing clothes when she was last seen.
