A street‑interview video posted to YouTube has triggered widespread alarm after a woman featured in the clip said she is Faloma Luhk, one of the two sisters who vanished from Saipan in 2011.
Faloma, 10, and her sister, Maleina Luhk, 9, were last seen at a bus stop near their home in As Teo on May 25, 2011. Their disappearance prompted a massive search involving local and federal authorities, but the girls were never found.
As of Wednesday, authorities have not confirmed whether the woman in the video is connected to the 2011 disappearance.
Del. Kimberlyn King‑Hinds said Wednesday she has forwarded the video to the FBI for review.
“I know that this investigation is a matter of great interest not just to the family but to our entire community,” she said. “At this point, it’s in the hands of the proper authorities. Let’s pray to God that these girls are safe.”
The video — titled “Faloma Luhk Found Alive After Being Reported Missing Since 10 (2011)” and posted by the channel Real Right and Uncut — shows a woman behaving erratically during an on‑camera encounter. At one point, she states, “I’ve been missing,” and says she is one of the Luhk sisters.
The clip has revived public interest in the case, which marked its 15th anniversary last month. This year, Maleina would be 24 and Faloma 25.
The FBI continues to urge anyone with information to come forward. A reward of up to $25,000 remains available for tips leading to the sisters’ whereabouts.
Individuals with information are encouraged to contact the FBI’s Saipan office at 670‑322‑6934.
