The child, believed to be 14 or 15-years-old, was found by Garda on Dublin's O'Connell Street, the Irish capital's main shopping thoroughfare, in a dazed and confused state last month.

However despite several weeks of investigation - following 115 separate lines of inquiry - detectives remain baffled about the identity of the young blonde-haired teenager.

The girl is believed to be European and is described as being 5ft 6in and of slim build with long blonde hair.
