The pair were last seen leaving the Travelodge on Dunstable Road, Luton, shortly before 11am.

Officers later received reports of a sighting near Wellington Street, Luton.

Anka was last seen dressed in a black zip-up top, jeans and black trainers and she was carrying a red and green bag.

It is imperative that ‘Anka knows she is not in any trouble,’ Detective Sergeant Ben Searle said.

He said: ‘Anka and her baby have now been missing for almost two weeks and we are deeply concerned for their welfare.

‘We have explored various lines of inquiry and now seek the public’s help in locating the pair.

‘It’s imperative that Anka knows she is not in any trouble, but we would urge anyone that knows anything about their whereabouts to please come forward.

‘If you have seen Anka or have any information that may help our investigation, no matter how small, then please contact us so we can bring them home safely.’
