Latvia's State Police issued a search notice on 18 May 2025 for Vilhelmīna Kaplāne, who is 83 years old. The woman was found the following day, 19 May, at about six in the evening, so the search lasted roughly one day.
The headline of the TVNET report also quotes the woman's son as saying she has been through hell. The short source text does not explain where or in what circumstances Kaplāne went missing, where exactly she was found, or what condition she is in, so those details are not given here.
The State Police announce searches for missing people in order to gather information about their whereabouts more quickly. In this case, the search ended with the missing woman being found.
