In the context of this story, yes. People want other details. This story generated much interest and all we have now is that she's been found. People want to know more about this. The word "other" emphasizes that people want to know more but are not getting it.

You are not going to find any grammatical or syntactical errors in writing like this. This is written by a professional writer and is heavily edited. So of course "other" is necessary. Your question is actually quite rude. It should be instead: "Why did the writer use other here?"

The question is not rude in any way. Ignore that remark, HUBLOT.

That is simply not true. Mistakes in news reports occur many times daily.
