A family appeal is being shared on the Costa del Sol to help find Nikoline, a Norwegian teenager reportedly last seen in Puerto Banús, Marbella, after Sunday night’s football celebrations.
According to the family appeal reported by Área Costa del Sol, Nikoline was last seen at Funky Buddha in Puerto Banús with other young Norwegians. The appeal describes her as 1.75 metres tall, blonde or bleached blonde, and wearing a long pink dress with an Arabic-style pattern. Anyone with information is asked to contact the family or the police on 091, or call 112.
Last seen after Norway’s World Cup match
Spanish media report that Nikoline is 17 years old and had been in the Costa del Sol on holiday. Her family has reportedly filed a missing-person report with the Policía Nacional in Fuengirola after she did not return home and could not be reached by phone.
The family says she had been out after Norway’s World Cup match against Brazil. According to reports, the group had been in Calahonda earlier in the night before travelling to Marbella and then on to Puerto Banús.
Phone signal stopped near the nightclub
Telecinco reports that a friend lost sight of Nikoline after going to the toilet at the nightclub, and that the last known location from the teenager’s phone was around Avenida Julio Iglesias, close to the venue, before the signal stopped.
The area around Puerto Banús is expected to be busy again tonight because of the Spain v Portugal World Cup match. Anyone who was in the area in the early hours of Monday, or who has photos, videos, taxi or ride-share information, should check whether they may have seen anything relevant.
Appeal for information
The appeal is asking people to share the information and pass on any detail that could help locate Nikoline. Even small details may matter in a missing-person case, especially in a busy nightlife area where people may not immediately realise they saw something important.
People should avoid sharing rumours, unverified claims or speculation on social media. Information should be passed directly to the family if they have provided contact details, or to the Policía Nacional on 091. In an urgent situation, call 112.
Anyone who believes they saw Nikoline in Puerto Banús, Marbella, Calahonda or the surrounding area during the night from Sunday to Monday should contact the authorities immediately.
