5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

The detective leading the investigation into the disappearance of 21-month-old Ben Needham, who went missing on the Greek Island of Kos in 1991, has said “it’s not case closed�. Earlier this week, police said they believe Ben died in an accident after a toy car thought to belong to him was found near where he went missing. Ben’s sister Leigh Anna has said that “without definite proof, there is still hope� that he is alive. Detective Inspector Jon Cousins of South Yorkshire police told 5 live that police are “still looking at everything that comes forward from now on� and “it’s not a closed case�. However, he added that that an accident is believed to be “the most probable cause of Ben’s disappearance�. This clip is originally from 5 live Breakfast on Wednesday 19 October 2016.
