‘Any and every attempt to track him down has not produced any result’
Senior Police Spokesman Constantina Dimoglidou told the Mail the search for the missing doctor is ongoing.
She said: “He was at the beach of Ag. Nikolas with another couple when he decided to go back to his home in the area of Pedi of Symi.
“It was around 1.30pm and he forgot his phone at the beach. Any and every attempt to track him down has not produced any result.
“We have now asked the fire brigade to assist in the operation in the case that he may have slipped, tripped, fallen, even bitten by a snake, remaining injured somewhere.
“There is just no trace of him. None whatsoever and that means that for us at least, every potential scenario is open and being investigated.”
