Father of San Antonio girl missing since December 2021 takes polygraph test at FBI field office

SAN ANTONIO – The father of missing 5-year-old San Antonio girl Lina Khil took a polygraph test in an effort to clear his name.

Pamela Allen, CEO of Eagle’s Flight Advocacy & Outreach, who has been working as the family’s spokesperson, told KSAT 12 News that the Khil family found out Tuesday that the FBI would be conducting the polygraph instead of San Antonio police. It’s unclear what went into that decision.

Riaz Khil was seen leaving the FBI field office after spending hours inside Tuesday afternoon.

Lina Khil has been missing since December 2021, when she disappeared from a playground in an apartment complex where her family lives in the Medical Center area.

There have been numerous searches for Lina, rewards offered, and even an age progression sketch circulated of what she may look like now.

But despite those efforts, there has been no sign of her.

Anyone with information is asked to call SAPD’s Missing Persons Unit at 210-207-7660 or Crime Stoppers at 210-224-7867.
