Indian-origin teenager Aanisha Saathik, an 18-year-old university student, went missing in Western Sydney a week ago. Amid police investigation and her parents’ plea for help, Aanisha was spotted on CCTV footage, wandering aimlessly about 3km away in the neighboring suburb. She was rushed to the hospital to be assessed as she had no money on her and probably went without eating anything for seven days. It is not yet known where she has been for the last seven days. According to police, she was last seen leaving her home about 1 pm on June 23. She did not take her mobile and did not return home for the last seven days. Her parents, Fatima and Sadiq Sathik, joined the search and issued a public appeal to the community to look for their missing daughter. Police said she had been struggling with anxiety and depression for several months and declined to take medication. Aanisha’s father made a public appeal Monday asking for help from anyone who might have seen his daughter on the road. Her father said she does not have many friends and only goes to school and comes back home. “We don’t know what happened to our daughter. We just want her home safe. Seven days, no money, no food. We are worrying a lot. Please help,” he said revealing that his daughter is very bright but is too shy to ask for help.Aanisha is the eldest of their three children and scored highly in her HSCs last year. She is studying a double degree in economics but was hospitalised a year ago.Aanisha is of Indian/Sub-Continental appearance, about 180 cm tall, slim, with long black hair tied in a bun and brown eyes, as per the description in the missing person notice. She was wearing a black hooded jumper, black pants with cream pinstripes, white shoes and gold earrings, the notice said.
