Cancun, Mexico – April 7, 2025 – Authorities in Cancun have issued an urgent call for public assistance in locating 16-year-old Camila, who has been reported missing. The Quintana Roo State Attorney General’s Office has released a search bulletin (“ficha de búsqueda”), expressing concerns that the teenager may be a victim of kidnapping.
Camila was last seen in Cancun, and the exact date and circumstances of her disappearance have not been detailed in the initial reports. However, the activation of the search protocol suggests that authorities believe her disappearance is not voluntary and that she may be in danger.
The search bulletin includes a photograph of Camila, along with descriptive information that could aid the public in identifying her. Authorities are urging anyone who may have seen Camila or has any information regarding her whereabouts to come forward immediately.

The involvement of the State Attorney General’s Office underscores the seriousness of the case and the potential for a criminal element in Camila’s disappearance. The term “privación de la libertad personal” in the search bulletin is a legal term in Mexico that refers to the unlawful restriction of a person’s freedom of movement, which can range from kidnapping to illegal detention.
Local news outlets and social media platforms have amplified the call for help, sharing Camila’s photograph and the search bulletin in an effort to reach a wider audience. Residents are encouraged to be vigilant and report any information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to the authorities.
Authorities have not yet released specific details about the timeline of Camila’s disappearance or any potential leads they may be pursuing. The focus remains on gathering information from the public that could lead to her safe return.
Anyone with information about Camila’s whereabouts is urged to contact the Quintana Roo State Attorney General’s Office immediately through the contact numbers provided in the search bulletin or by calling the national emergency number 911.
The community in Cancun and beyond is hoping for Camila’s swift and safe return home. The investigation remains active and ongoing.
