The search for missing British doctor and TV presenter Michael Mosley, 67, resumed at dawn Saturday on the Greek island of Symi. Mosley vanished on Wednesday while on holiday, last seen leaving Agios Nikolaos beach in the afternoon. CCTV footage later captured him entering a mountainous path near Pedi village.
Greek authorities have mobilized extensive resources in the search, including divers, helicopters, drones, and sniffer dogs. Despite these efforts, no signs of Mosley have been found, deepening concerns about his whereabouts.
Mosley’s family, including his wife Clare and their four children, have joined the search efforts. “We are doing everything we can to find him,” Mosley’s brother told The Telegraph on Friday, expressing the family’s deep worry and commitment to locating him.
Greek police reported that Mosley’s phone was found at his accommodation, adding another layer of mystery to his disappearance. The case has attracted significant media attention, especially in the UK, where Mosley is well-known for his work on the BBC series “Trust Me, I’m A Doctor” and appearances on “The One Show” and “This Morning.”
Local officials and search teams remain perplexed. “His disappearance is baffling to both locals and search teams alike,” said a police spokesperson, reflecting the widespread concern and confusion surrounding the incident. The search is particularly focused on the rugged terrain around the Pedi area, where Mosley was last seen.
As the search enters its fourth day, the hope for a positive outcome remains, with teams continuing to comb the island for any signs of the missing presenter.
“We are praying for his safe return,” said a family friend, echoing the sentiments of many who have been touched by Mosley’s disappearance.
