"We still think there's a possibility they're in Turkey and that's why we're having the appeal," Richard Walton from London police's counter terrorism command told reporters on Friday.

Its also believed that their fourth friend in same Academy, which police suppose that she is already in Syria, travelled to Turkey in December.
