Police in the Highlands investigating the disappearance of Clive Dennier have found a body. The 50 year old reporter who worked for the Strathspey and Badenoch Herald, based in Grantown on Spey, failed to turn up for work on 25 March having talked about going hillwalking over the previous weekend.
Mr Dennier’s car was found west of Invergarry four days after he was reported missing and despite extensive searches in the Kinlochhourn and wider Knoydart area no sign of the missing man was found until the Police received a call from a member of the public on Friday 31 May. It is understood that a body has been recovered from the Kinlochhourn area and that Mr Dennier’s family has been informed and arrangements were being made for formal identification.
Police have also found a body in the Bla Bheinn area of the Cuillin on Skye where Oliver Smith went missing in April. The 33 year old, who worked at St Andrews University, was reported missing after failing to return to his holiday accommodation on the island. His family have been informed and Police are making arrangements for a formal identification.
