One year after she vanished, Lina Sardar Khil’s family and the San Antonio Police Department are pleading with the public to continue looking for the 4-year-old.

The Hope in a Father’s Heart

The 27-year-old father of three claimed that he was too anxious to return to work. He returned to work four months ago after realizing he had to support his wife Zarmeena, their three children, Rayhan, age 3, and Saud, age 5, as well as himself, kens5.com reported.

But he insisted that it doesn’t change the fact that his daughter is still missing. In December 2021, five days before Christmas, she vanished. According to Sardar Khil, his daughter was playing in his lap that afternoon. He claimed she had disappeared into thin air later that day. The anxiety of not finding her has increased my protective barrier.
