I wonder if anyone who speaks German can help with this guy. "Yulgen" doesn't sound like a normal German name, and I wonder if the friend or the police officer misheard Jurgen or something similar. Maybe that's why he hasn't been identified yet.
He may have been using a fake name, but it's probably true that he was from Germany or a German-speaking country, because it would be hard to fake a German accent in front of your friend for two years.
Are there any German-language missing persons websites to search?
