An urgent search is underway for a heavily pregnant woman who went missing from hospital.
Obdulia Gracia Medina, 39, was reported missing almost a month ago on April 14.
It is possible she is sleeping rough in London, and her baby might now have been born, police said.
She was last seen on CCTV walking north along Edgware Road at around 9.13pm on May 10, having been seen at a venue in Cosway Street, Marylebone, earlier that evening.
Detective Inspector Simon Beechey said: ‘Obdulia has been missing for almost a month. In that time we have been working around the clock to find her and have carried out many enquiries.
‘I am now further appealing to the public to assist US with enquiries to help find Obdulia, who we know was heavily pregnant or might now even have given birth.
‘Obdulia is originally from Surrey but is recently believed to have been frequenting the Paddington and Marylebone areas.
She was seen on CCTV in London on Friday
‘We believe she may be sleeping rough and we are seriously concerned for her welfare.
‘I am also appealing directly to Obdulia. The health of you and your baby, whether you have now given birth or the child is unborn, is vitally important. Please seek medical help or call 999 immediately.’
Obdulia was reported missing to Surrey Police after hospital staff reported her missing.
The investigation was transferred to the Met on May 1 due to her links to London.
Police released CCTV images of her where she was last seen and urged anyone who has seen her or knows where she may be to come forward.
