The story of the girl«s disappearance quickly spawned various theories and rumors. One version being actively promoted by local residents online is that the girl ran away to a pen pal. As the girl»s grandmother told us, that could not have happened.
Two rescue teams, LizaAlert and SpasGrad, are participating in the search for the girl.

«We don«t know anything at all. It»s quiet. They just sent a message claiming she was seen in Moscow. We have no information yet, unfortunately,» the grandmother told MSK1.RU. «She told me she went for her ring, that she supposedly lost it. She couldn«t have run away and she didn»t go to any boy. She«s an absolute homebody.»
As an MSK1.RU correspondent previously found out, the girl was growing up with her mother and two younger brothers. For the past two months, she had not been using a phone, so it is impossible to track her through electronic means. This is now complicating the search.
«The search is difficult and complex. There are no solid leads. Only assumptions that are not confirmed either by cameras or by witnesses. One version is a runaway. We are trying, searching. A large number of people are working, the police are working. Today the Investigative Committee is joining, but there are no results yet,» one of the volunteers shared with MSK1.RU.
Dozens of concerned people and volunteers from Serpukhov have already joined the search for the schoolgirl. According to preliminary information, about 200 people came to the headquarters on July 20. Some are reviewing CCTV footage and putting up flyers, while others are conducting ground searches.
Earlier, a family from Khakassia was searching in Moscow for their son, who had run away from home on July 14. While the mother was filing a police report and volunteers were searching for the teenager, he went to the capital to earn millions and build a male empire.
