An elderly man who was last seen ten years ago has been found dead inside a freezer in a disused pub in London.
Roy Bigg was 70 years old when he disappeared in February 2012 and became the subject of a Missing People appeal.
But construction workers renovating the disused bar on Romford Road, Forest Gate made the horrific find.
When Mr. Bigg disappeared, there had been hopes that he was still alive.
“Roy we are here for you whenever you are ready; we can listen, talk you through what help you need, pass a message for you and help you to be safe,” the Missing People appeal had read.
The Met Police confirmed that Mr. Bigg’s lifeless body had been found in a freezer in the basement of the building.
Shocked builders found his remains on October 15, 2021, but investigators just announced the discovery.
“We believe that Roy’s body may have been in the freezer for a number of years,” Detective Chief Inspector Kelly Allen of the Met’s Specialist Crime Command said.
“Speaking to people who knew him will help us establish not only his lifestyle and habits, but also when he was last seen,” the detective continued.
“If you knew Roy please do get in touch with us – his birth date was 8 September 1944, we believe he would have been aged around 70 when he died.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s been a long time since you knew him, or if you only knew him briefly, any information may be of real significance to our enquiries.”
DCI Allen added: “We have released an image of Roy and hope that anyone who knew him will take the time to come forward and speak with us.
“If you don’t want to speak directly to police please contact Crimestoppers anonymously, but whatever you do, please do make the call.”
