Police say they are “deeply concerned” for a woman and her three-month-old baby who have been missing for nearly two weeks.

Anka, 29, and her child were captured on CCTV leaving a Travelodge in Dunstable Road, Luton, shortly before 11am on 17 October.

Bedfordshire Police said officers received reports of a sighting near Wellington Street in the town but the pair had not been seen since.

The force said Anka – whose surname has not been released by police – was seen wearing a black zip-up top, jeans and black trainers. She was also seen carrying a red and green bag.

Detective Sergeant Ben Searle said police were “deeply concerned for their welfare”.
