Police have received no confirmation at all at this stage in relation to claims that a woman spotted in a nightclub last month is the same person who went missing from her Rakiraki home over 12 years ago.
Spokesperson, Ana Naisoro has clarified that the claim that the woman seen in a nightclub is the same missing person, was made by a family friend of the missing person.
Naisoro said the parents were called in by the Police to confirm if the woman is their daughter.
The parents have said that she is not their daughter.
Naisoro said to clear any doubts, the woman who is an Australian citizen on holiday in Fiji with some friends, has volunteered to go through a DNA test.
Police are now awaiting the results.
