Disappearance of Tiphaine Véron

Common card · No. 477469

Tiphaine Véron is a French tourist who went missing in Japan at age 36, on 29 July 2018. She had traveled alone to the rural city of Nikkō in Tochigi Prefecture, about 150 km north of Tokyo. She was last seen having breakfast in her hotel. The case has drawn attention due to perceived contrasts in investigative procedures between Japan and Western or European approaches to missing persons. In January 2023, the investigation was reopened in France by the cold case unit of Nanterre, which announced plans to travel to Nikkō in early 2024.
