The search for answers never ends

A $1 million reward remains on offer for information relating to the disappearance of Bendigo teenagers Maureen Braddy and Allan Whyte., Victoria Police say

2018 marks the fiftieth anniversary of their disappearance and any new information received by Victoria Police in relation to their remains will be thoroughly investigated.

We understand the disappearance of the Bendigo pair in 1968 has been devastating to their families and police remain in discussion with them in relation to this investigation.

Maureen, aged 16, and Allan, aged 17, were last seen leaving a YMCA dance on Mundy Street, California Gully on 23 November, 1968.

Despite an extensive investigation by local detectives and Missing Persons Squad detectives, the teenagers have never been found.

A Coronial inquest was held in 2014 and ruled that the teenagers met with foul play and it was likely they died the night of the dance.

Detectives believe someone in the community has information that would lead to those responsible being brought to justice and we appeal, as we have in the past, for them to come forward.

Someone out there knows what happened to Maureen and Allan and their families deserve some answers, as do all families of missing people, and to be able to finally lay them to rest.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
