Recently, the family of an Irish girl, who went missing last year and was found dead soon later, have thought that the investigation was not properly done thoroughly enough and have asked the authorities in Kuala Lumpur to conduct a an inquest to the death of their daughter. It is said that Nora Anne Quoirin, the 15 year old Irish girl, has suffered from learning difficulties and went missing in early August a day after her family arrived on holiday from a rain forest resort in Seremban. They found her naked body near a jungle stream in a deep ravine near the Dusan Resort, the place her family was staying, 10 days later.
The Malaysian police found no signs pointing to foul play so they had ruled out abduction as a motive. Officials have said that Nora Anne died from an internal bleeding, probably due to prolonged hunger and stress and she had suffered intestinal damage and most likely died 2-3 days before she was found. Though the officials have made their statement, Nora Anne’s family feared a criminal connection to the disappearance, saying that she had special needs but never left them voluntarily.
There are many possible conclusions to this investigation but no one has found the truth yet. The first possible conclusion is that someone might have broken in since they have found the window latch to have been broken and someone could have taken her out which leads us to my next possible conclusion. Since the window latch was found to have been broken, she also could have easily opened the window and climb out in search of something outside or just wandering around the resort. Another possible conclusion is that the parents could have abused her which might have caused her learning difficulties and which might have caused her to make the decision of running away. There is no complete conclusion yet but these are some examples of the possibilities which could have occured.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.
Why do this?
The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.
To help you get started, here are a few questions:
You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.
Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.
When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
