The desperate family of a 16-year-old are spreading her image around social media after she failed to come home after last night’s terror attack.
Asya Mustafa, who lives near London Bridge, was due home at around 9pm after walking back through the area where dozens of innocent civilians were crushed by a van and stabbed by three men.
However, as of this morning she still not been seen and her loved ones have been pleading for her safe return.
A frantic online search was also taking place for journalist Geoff Ho, who was filmed clutching his neck after seemingly being stabbed, but he has since been found.
Mr Ho was stabbed at Southwark Tavern on Saturday night and rushed to hospital in an ambulance during the chaos.
Dramatic video shows him clutching his neck as he staggers away from the scene just moments after the terror attack.
Distressing footage also shows a sobbing woman waiting on the condition of one of her loved ones as they receive CPR.
She can be heard pleading with the victim to ‘keep going’ as they receive emergency treatment on the floor.
Witnesses to the eight-minute attack last night said there was a stabbing in the Southwark Tavern venue at Borough market while others heard at least 12 gunshots in the area.
Twitter users have circulated an image of Mr Ho saying he is missing after being stabbed at the tavern.
‘I need to know if Geoff Ho is ok if anyone can help. Stabbed at Southwark Tavern. Last seen in an ambulance, ‘ Isabelle Oderberg tweeted early on Sunday morning.
The family of another person believed to be in the area at the time, Asya Mustafa, have also circulated her picture on social media after she failed to come home.
Her aunt, Kezi Alam, said: ‘My Niece Asya Mustafa, was on route home to london bridge and we haven’t heard from her. Please keep her in your prayers and if anyone has seen or spoken to her and knows she is ok let us know.’
She later added: ‘4am no news! Awaiting the casualty line to contact us back. Her phone is off since it happened and she was due to return home when the incident happened. Her walk home is borough market. Praying so hard.’
Three jihadists yelling ‘this is for Allah’ are said to be the men behind the horrific rampage which has caused chaos on London streets.
The terror suspects mowed down up to 20 people with a white van at 50 miles per hour on London Bridge and then began ‘randomly stabbing’ pedestrians and diners with 12-inch hunting knives.
The terrorists tried to storm into the busy pub in the nearby Borough Market, where a man was reportedly stabbed five times in the chest.
One witness said a ‘dark-skinned’ man in a red tracksuit ‘calmly’ stabbed a man three times.
One woman said she saw three people with what appeared to be their throats cut at London Bridge. There are also reports that a bystander was shot in the head in the crossfire and at least seven people have been stabbed.
Seven people have been killed and 48 have been injured according to the Metropolitan Police.
A British Transport Police officer was stabbed on London Bridge although his wounds are not thought to be life threatening.
All three terrorists were shot dead by armed police officers approximately eight minutes after the incident began. Police said the terrorists were all wearing fake suicide vests.
Terrifying footage from the scene shows police officers shouting ‘Clear the scene now!’ as panicked pedestrians flee. London Ambulance said multiple resources were attending the area.
The terrorists are believed to have hired a white van from B&Q and drove at high speed across London Bridge swerving along the pavement in an ‘S shape’ to hit as many pedestrians as possible.
