Belfast: John George’s family met with the PSNI on Monday to discuss the ongoing investigation in Spain. They stressed the need for regular updates from Spanish authorities.
John, 37, a father of two from west Belfast, went missing while on holiday in Alicante last December. His family traveled to Spain to assist in the search.
Last week, a body was discovered, and a man has been charged with his murder. The family is eager to know when John’s remains will be returned to Belfast.
In a statement, they expressed relief at the assurances given by the PSNI regarding better communication with Spanish police about the investigation.
They highlighted that the main concern is the timeline for the return of John’s body, especially since the autopsy is still pending.
The family is also worried about how to stay informed without interfering with the police work. They want to ensure that everything is handled sensitively.
The PSNI reassured them that they would help facilitate communication and assist in investigating any potential links to suspects in Belfast.
The family plans to meet with the PSNI again in two weeks for further updates, hoping for more clarity on the situation.
