I hadn't realised the witness never signed any statement.Mum of missing toddler calls on cops to return to Kos and speak to key witness
Kerry Needham wants officers here and on the Greek island of Kos to prove their claim her son Ben, who disappeared in 1991, died in an accident. The mum is still clinging to hopes he is alivewww.mirror.co.uk
I agree with you. JMOIMO his mother is absolutely right to ask these questions and seek answers. Where's the evidence?
Well he is somebody's child that is for sure. Poor lad!! RIP whoever he was. He does have a look of Ben about him so fingers crossed for Kerry. But whatever happens I hope this raises awareness of child trafficking.Now Interpol DNA tracking experts have been called in and do not believe the boy is German.
Still desperate for answers, the mum has been researching child trafficking and says it was "rife" at the time of Ben's disappearance. She claims her family was told by a stranger that Ben "had been sold" but says the Greek police at the time never investigated it.
Interpol published details of the case in hopes of finding the boy's name and determining "the suspicious circumstances surrounding his death". He was around 3ft 6ins tall and weighed around two stone four lbs with brown hair and type O blood.
Interpol said the boy was found wrapped in foil in the River Danube, weighed down with a flagstone slab
Referring to the discovery in Germany, Kerry added: “Tying a concrete slab to that child’s chest is one way of disposing of a child who has been used and abused for as long as these people possibly can. We got sent an email with the link about this body being found in Germany.
"Since then we’ve had lots of comments about it too with other people saying the same - the reconstruction has a look of Ben. It’s only a model and it sounds really strange but there are kind of similarities but there are lots of little boys four or five who resemble Ben.
Body of toddler found weighed down in river could be missing Brit, cops believe
Ben Needham’s mum Kerry has been searching for her 21-month son ever since he vanished from the Greek island Kos in 1991, and says she has alerted South Yorkshire Police to a fresh Interpol appealwww.mirror.co.uk
Why not? He could potentially have been in a freezer for many years and now put in the water. Or other situations. JMO Whoever he is, he is someone's child. MOOConfusing...but the boy found in Germany couldn't be him. I am so sorry for her, though. She deserves to know what happened to her son.

That's a brave call, his ancestry might not be German but to say an unidentified corpse is not from a specific country is pushing it surely.
