Va. woman missing for 1 year, police continue search

WASHINGTON – It’s been one year since a 36-year-old woman went missing from her home. The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help in finding Leyla Mastova McCullagh, a Leesburg resident.

Matthew McCullagh, her estranged husband, says he last saw his wife on Aug. 14, 2012 at her home in 21000 block of Evergreen Mills Road, according to a news release from the county sheriff’s office.

McCullagh’s family and friends contacted the police several times after her disappearance, the release said. She suffered from an unknown medical condition at the time that she went missing.

Loudoun detectives are continuing their investigation more than one year after filing a missing person report.

Anyone with information on the Leyla McCullagh’s disappearance should contact the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office at 703-777-0475.
