Detectives assigned to the St. Andrew Central Police conducted a major search in sections of August Town in St. Andrew on Wednesday for Lorna Robertson, the Swallowfield resident who was abducted by criminals more than a week ago.
 
But there is no word yet on whether she has been found.
 
Ms. Robertson, otherwise called a 'Nikki' - a Jamaica Labour Party election scrutineer - was abducted while walking along Old Hope Road on May 30. 
 
She was approached by a man who pulled her into a black Honda Stepwagon that was fitted with fake licence plates. The abduction was caught on CCTV. 
 
Superintendent Mark Harris, head of the St. Andrew Central Police Division, told Radio Jamaica News on the weekend that the vehicle was recovered last week.
 
Blood stains were reportedly found inside the vehicle and DNA samples taken from it.
 
Superintendent Harris said the police have so far questioned several people in connection with the abduction. 
 
The family of Ms. Robertson has offered a $500,000 reward for her safe return.
