UPDATE

the unidentified male found in the River Tay in Aberfeldy at around 9:40am by a member of the public on Saturday, August 17, this year.

After a week of investigations, I am happy to update you that the unidentified male has now been identified although as the last reports state, formal identification is yet to take place. Police have said they have informed the family of the person they believe this to be.

As time passes these cases can become difficult to resolve, ensuring these cases are shared is essential is identifying all those who are found to be missing.

Detective Sergeant Stan Gilroy said: “We would like to thank the public for assisting with our enquiries whilst we worked to identify this man and notify his family.”

As always, these cases require as much information as possible to bring answers and closure to the family of the man that has passed away. So, if you have any information, should call 101 and quote incident number 1094 of August 17, 2024.

thank you to the police and the public for ensuring anther case did not enter the historical database, they have their name now and my thought are with the family.

Rest in peace to the Aberfeldy Doe,

Details

We are appealing to the public to help identify a man whose body was discovered in the River Tay at Aberfeldy on Saturday, 17 August, 2024.

The man’s body was discovered by a member of the public near to Wades Bridge around 9.40am.

His death is not believed to be suspicious.

Detective Inspector Simon Murray said: “Unfortunately, despite significant enquiries, we have not yet been able to establish who the man is. We want to establish his identity as soon as possible to inform his family of his death.

“There were no personal belongings near to where he was found, and no-one has reported anyone matching his description missing to police.

“We are continuing to carry out enquiries to help us identify where he may have entered the water. We would ask any local residents if this description resembles anyone they know lives locally? For any wider public who have been in the Aberfeldy area over the past couple of weeks, does this resemble anyone they may have seen in the area?

“Has anyone seen personal items either washed up on the shore or discarded near the water? Have you have seen a car parked in either a car park or a layby in the area that has been there for a few days? Abandoned tents or anything out else of the ordinary?

“He may have been on holiday or visiting the Aberfeldy area, so if you have any information or if you have not heard from a friend or family member and this is unusual, please contact us. Anyone with any information that may be relevant is urged to contact 101 quoting incident number 1094 of 17 August.”
