Police are to reveal the contents of a mystery letter sent to them more than three years ago - in a fresh TV bid for help finding a Welsh man who disappeared without trace.
Jordan Moray was reported missing by his family on August 2 in 2019 after he vanished from Aberdare.
The alarm was raised after concerned relatives visited his flat and found it with a gaming machine left on and his door unlocked. His phone was also left at the address.
And despite a number of searches and appeals there have been no confirmed sightings since then.
The information from a letter received three months into the investigation into Jordan’s disappearance will be made public in an interview with police on new Channel Five series Vanished on Thursday.
Show host Dan Walker told the Mirror: “We are trying to work out what happened and where he is now and what we can do to shine a light on that.
“It was a strange set of circumstances when Jordan went missing because he had a games console still on and his mobile phone on charge.
“We will have South Wales Police on the show and three months after he went missing, police said they received a handwritten letter. They’ve talked about wanting to find out who wrote that letter, but they’ve never revealed the contents.
“They’re going to be showing us that letter for the first time, we’ll be reading out that letter, and it is somebody who thinks that they saw something that night and heard something that night.
“Without going into too much detail, it’s really interesting what the guy says he saw, and you can see why the police were looking for him(letter’s author) because what he heard and saw may actually have been Jordan.”
Vanished will also feature a pre-recorded interview with Jordan’s mother Debbie. She has made a number of appeals to find her son, who was 33 when he went missing, including a new video appeal in August last year.
She said: “He’s best friends with his brother Josh, Josh is terrible - looking over the gate constantly to see if he’s coming, constantly. I ask myself all the time why, why Lord why.”
The family were given hope in January 2021 when there was a possible sighting in the Stratford-upon-Avon area. A man claimed to have spoken to Jordan in September 2020 and, later on, recognised him from an appeal posted on the police’s website. The family now regularly go searching in that area.
Detective Inspector Gareth Davies from South Wales Police - which has been working closely with the Warwickshire force since the Stratford sightings - revealed last August they’d not ruled anything out in their search.
“We, or his family, must be able to see and or speak to Jordan in person to determine that he is okay,” he said.
“I am appealing to Jordan himself to make contact, however I appreciate that if he is living off the grid, then the chances of him seeing this appeal are slim.”
Last week’s first episode of Vanished on Channel Five attracted an audience of over one million viewers. It featured the missing person Liam Butler, who has now been found safe and well.
