Missing British TV Presenter’s Body Found On Greek Island

The Police who went in search of the missing British television health presenter Michael Mosley who was on vacation have discovered a dead body believed to be him.

According to the police on Sunday, the presenter’s dead body was found on the Greek island of Symi where Mosley went this week.

Southern Aegean region police chief, Petros Vassilakis said, “People on a boat saw a body close to the rocky coast,”

“The police are going (to the site) to check that it is him,”

The Greece’s ERT public television channel had reported that the body was the 67-year-old Mosley.

Mosley who was last seen on Wednesday, failed to return from a coastal walk on the island where they were vacationing, his wife, Clare Bailey explained when she alerted the police.

The authorities, on Thursday, however, announced they were going on a search of him.

Mayor Lefteris Papakalodoukas said Symi has been baking under “insufferable heat” and the area where Mosley was last sighted was “difficult because it’s very rocky”.

Much of Greece has seen record temperatures for the first week of June, reaching 39.3 degrees Celsius (103 degrees Fahrenheit) on Symi, which is close to Rhodes.

Mosley is a renowned health journalist on BBC programmes who featured in “The One Show” and “This Morning”, and in directing documentaries.
