Alina Settles was five years old when she was last seen in Henderson, Nevada. She is described as having brown shoulder-length hair and brown eyes, about 3 feet 3 inches tall and 45 pounds. Authorities classify her disappearance as a family abduction.

Investigators allege Alina’s mother, Elena Settles, took her on July 23, 2013. A felony warrant for kidnapping was issued for Elena on February 4, 2015. Officials believe the pair may have traveled to Russia and that Alina may be using the last name Shainyan.

The case remains active and has involved the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and the Nevada Office of the Attorney General. If anyone has seen Alina, knows her whereabouts, or has information about Elena Settles, please share what you know with law enforcement.
