The PSNI have issued an urgent appeal for help in locating a “vulnerable” teenager who boarded a flight from Belfast City Airport earlier this month.

Orgest Muja (17) has been missing from Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh, since October 8 and was last seen in Birmingham.

Police have said that they are increasingly concerned for the safety and well-being of the missing teen due to his “vulnerable status”.

A spokesperson for the PSNI said: “Orgest was last seen leaving his address at around 8.00am that morning [October 8]. He was later traced to Belfast City Airport, where he boarded a flight to Birmingham.

“Upon his arrival at Birmingham Airport, Orgest was seen leaving the grounds in a black Nissan. His current whereabouts remain unknown.

“Orgest is described as being approximately 5 feet 5 inches tall, of slim build, with short dark brown hair and brown eyes. He does not have any family in Northern Ireland but does have family connections in Birmingham.

“Due to his vulnerable status, police are increasingly concerned for Orgest’s safety and well-being.

“Police are urging anyone who may have seen him or has any information about his whereabouts to come forward immediately.”
