THE family of a Scottish woman who went missing in Spain amid “a wall of silence” more than two years ago is offering a reward of up to £100,000 for information which helps the search. Lisa Brown vanished from Cadiz, where she lived, in November 2015 and is believed to have been murdered.

Spanish police have carried out major searches for the then 32-year-old, originally from Alexandria in West Dunbartonshire, but have had no success.

The mother-of-one’s family has joined forces with Crimestoppers in the hope that the anonymity it offers might encourage people in the expat community to come forward. The appeal is a first for the charity, as it has never before put up a third-party reward on foreign soil.

Brown’s brother, Craig Douglas, said: “It would mean absolutely everything, the possibility to have some sort of normality. It has been a long time and this could possibly be the right time for someone to come forward. It’s a daily struggle, Lisa was my wee sister and then she’s not there. My mum’s in her 70s and Lisa’s son is only 10. For that wee boy to go to school and come back and she’s not there, I’m doing this for them – I refuse to let Lisa be forgotten.”

Brown was last heard from on Wednesday, November 4, 2015. Her former partner reported her missing five days later.

Roger Critchell of Crimestoppers said: “There’s been a wall of silence – the expat community is very close, but somebody knows something.

“They can contact us truly anonymously and we will pass that on to Spanish police through the National Crime Agency.

“There’s a kid, there’s a family back in Scotland that doesn’t know what’s happened, but there’s a body somewhere.”
