The charity, which helps the families of those missing abroad, added: “Whilst formal identification is yet to be carried out. Mr Colgan’s driving licence was in the pocket of the jacket, and the clothes were those he was wearing the night he disappeared.”

Chief executive, Matthew Searle said: “An astonishing amount of support has been apparent in this case – the search for Liam has been joined by thousands of people, both German and British, and we would like to thank all of them for their support. Our thoughts are of course with Liam’s family and friends today.”
