As the family wrote, the US Embassy, Anjuna’s local authorities and MN Senators are working hard to locate her”. Later they also posted to share that the Goa police had become in the efforts to find Mann. She had been staying in a Bunkd Hostel.
Nearly two days later, the family now has an update. “We would like to share with everyone that Elizabeth Mann has been found and is safe,” they wrote on the Facebook page.
Thousands responded to the post expressing happiness over the fact that Mann had been found, though many also expressed concern and said that they were “praying for her safe return home”.
