The 21-yr-old trekker had checked into Langtang National Park on April 20. She was last spotted on 30 April near Lama Hotel, according to locals.

At a press meet organized by Trekking Agencies' Association of Nepal (TAAN) on Friday, Aubrey's father Paul said they've decided to continue search for Aubrey as they have found some missing links in the incident.

"I have found the locals nervous. I believe they know something about my daughter but are not willing to share," TAAN quoted Paul as saying in a press statement.

"I believe she is being held somewhere. She is in big trouble," Paul said.

The Saccos have also requested Nepal Police, Nepal Army, TAAN, Department of National Parks and Wildlife Reserve, local administration and all concerned for further investigation into the issue.

Speaking at the meet, a representative of US Embassy in Kathmandu said, the case will remain open as long as the Saccos want.

They have also announced a cash reward of Rs 2 million for anyone who gives information on the whereabouts of the missing trekker.
