A Sri Lankan woman who had left for Saudi Arabia for overseas employment has remained missing for 14 years, according to reports from the Ambanpola area.

The missing woman has been identified as ‘Niluka Rajapaksha,’ a resident of Serugoda in Ambanpola.

According to the information and documents received, she had departed for Saudi Arabia on April 10, 2012, for overseas employment.

However, her family members say they have received no confirmed information about her whereabouts since her departure, with 14 years having passed without any updates.

In connection with the incident, her family has lodged several complaints with the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE).

Accordingly, documents indicate that the relevant complaint was registered on August 17, 2022, under reference number CD/183/2208.

The SLBFE has also issued letters regarding the complaint in 2023 and 2024, while the Presidential Secretariat was informed of the matter in 2025.

However, the whereabouts of Niluka Rajapaksha, who has been missing for the past 14 years, remain unknown.

Her family members have appealed for assistance in tracing her and establishing her current whereabouts.
