The grieving family of a "young, joyous" Newcastle teenager who went missing nearly three decades ago is hoping $1 million will prompt someone to finally reveal her fate.
NSW Police on Wednesday increased the reward for information about the suspected murder of 16-year-old Gordana Kotevski, who was last seen being forced into a car on Powell Street, Charlestown, about 9pm on November 24, 1994.
On International Missing Children's Day, Gordana's aunt, Julie Talevski, asked people to come forward with any relevant information about her niece.
