Following on from thread 1, linked below.

Let's hope the CCTV / sighting in town gives a glimmer of home that he made the walk from the beach to town ok.

still hoping

TokyoSushi · 07/06/2024 16:15

Still hoping for good news.

IDontSleepIDream · 07/06/2024 16:15

The cctv is confusing me. So the pic of him with the umbrella was taken BEFORE the rocky path walk or AFTER?

Choux · 07/06/2024 16:15

According to the Daily Mail there was a sighting on cctv at 4.30pm which his wife saw and said was not him and the shorts were different.

The DM says the confirmed sighting we are seeing photos from "is timestamped 1.52pm and was taken from the Blue Corner in Pedi, a fishing village about fifteen minutes walk from St Nicholas and around a quarter of the way through the walk.
Footage seen by MailOnline from ten minutes earlier shows him carrying the same purple umbrella and walking past a cafe at the other end of the Main Street.
The video shows him walking towards the Marina part of Pedi from where he could have taken a boat back to Symi or carried on over the peninsula along rugged terrain with no shelter from the searing heat."

So he made it into Pedi but after that...?

Delatron · 07/06/2024 16:17

He made it to Pedi. And there was a man dressed exactly the same as him there at 4.30. But it wasn’t him. As the shorts were different

DontThinkJustDo · 07/06/2024 16:18

And now he's been seen in Rhodes? Is that right?

Aquarius1234 · 07/06/2024 16:18

A few miles sounds a crazy long walk in the heat to me.
It seems he was lurking about in that CCTV picture.

Yes exactly there was a man who looked identical wearing rhe exact same shirt etc, with the exact same build. Only the shorts were different, and the wife said it wasn’t him.

Delatron · 07/06/2024 16:18

Apparently. That is more hopeful though if true.

Aquarius1234 · 07/06/2024 16:19

Unusual way to go meet another woman that's for sure..

Whatshallabee · 07/06/2024 16:19

Checking in. The media speculation is getting bizarre.

It just seems unlikely in such a small town. Perplexing!

Really? Where did yoy read that?

No that was someone on thread 1 making an incorrect assumption.

See how easily misinformation is spread. Glad you corrected.

ThreeDimensional · 07/06/2024 16:23

I don't think he's been seen in Rhodes; the poster misunderstood a Tweet.

I was wondering about the umbrella, would it be open if he tripped and fell, and would it not be seen somewhere, or fallen into the water and floated? It could've been seen by someone in a boat, or swimming, or by the search team.

Also, I'm not sure if he would be browsing in shop windows if he was on the way to kill himself, but I could be wrong.

Willmafrockfit · 07/06/2024 16:24

oh is this why they are searching Pedi?

Zonder · 07/06/2024 16:24

So much time has passed now. It looks so bad.

MummyJ99 · 07/06/2024 16:26

This is a long shot, but there is no hospital on the island of Symi. Perhaps he left the island to go to a hospital if he was feeling unwell?

Rubbishconfession · 07/06/2024 16:27

That's definitely him, the socks are also the same colour and length as his last seen photo.

Which I guess is why there is confusion over why his wife is saying it is not him.

MarkWithaC · 07/06/2024 16:27

Really odd that there may have been someone looking and dressed so similarly to him in such a small place.

How would he do that then with no one knowing,,,

She could just be in shock and not thinking straight. But is quite odd
