Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala Police has resumed probe to unravel the mysterious disappearance of German woman Lisa Wiese from Thiruvananthapuram three years ago.

The investigation which had come to a standstill during COVID-19 pandemic period has now been restarted. As part of the investigation, the Kerala police has handed over a questionnaire to the Interpol for seeking response from UK citizen Mohammad Ali with whom Lisa had arrived in Thiruvananthapuram.

Ali left for London, via Dubai, taking a flight from the Cochin International Airport on March 15.

Initial investigations hit a dead-end. The State police could not take forward the probe following the outbreak of COVID-19 a year later. Restrictions on international travel owing to the pandemic also hampered the probe,
