Missing persons cases and their significance

Pauline's disappearance is an example of the challenges police face in finding missing people. According to the [Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA)](https://www.bka.de/DE/ UnserAufgabe/Ermittlungsunterstuetzung/BearbeitungVermisstenfaelle/arbeitVermisstenfaelle.html), a person is considered missing if they are inexplicably absent from their whereabouts and a danger to life or limb is assumed. As a rule, the local police stations are responsible for the immediate search for people; large-scale search measures are often used when there is acute danger.

In 2025, around 9,420 missing person cases were registered in Germany. Around 200 to 300 new searches are added every day. While more than 50 percent of cases are resolved within a week, there are also cases that remain unsolved for over a year. However, the clearance rate for missing people remains relatively high. This shows how important it is to involve the population in search operations in order to find missing people like Pauline Mann as quickly as possible.

The police and the relevant authorities continue to rely on information from the public to find Pauline Mann and help her return safely.
