Peter Faulding, a world-renowned forensics expert and founder of private search and rescue organisation Specialist Group International, has confirmed his team of divers will be on site from 8am.

He said last night that he will be bringing 'high-spec' sonar equipment, worth around £55,000, that has a 'very high hit rate' and can 'find people within the hour' in search operations.

Mr Faulding, who will also survey the route of the river by helicopter, told Sky News: 'We're assisting with our dive team. We carry out all the underwater operations in the south east for the police anyway, but we're bringing a particularly high-spec piece of equipment, 1,800-kilohertz specialist side-scan sonar.

'Each year we deal with a lot of drownings and we locate them extremely quickly. The difference with this sonar is that it's very, very high frequency.

'It's about £55,000 and it scans the river and I can see every stick and stone lying on the river bed. We've got a very high hit rate with this.

He added: 'Our sonar is probably a bit more superior but I've got a lot of specialist search expertise and I've worked on hundreds of these cases and we always generally find people within the hour in lakes etc.'

“I think that within two to three days we should have all of the river searched."

“The river is quite an unusual one. It’s not a straight river but a very windy one”

Peter Faulding, a forensic search and rescue expert who founded the company Specialist Group International, offered to assist the police free of charge, and has drafted in a team of six divers to help with the search effort.
