Locate International is a UK community interest company dedicated to reviewing unsolved missing persons and unidentified body cases at no cost to families or the police.
With regard to this particular 40-year-old case, Locate’s Emma Tilley says: “In December 1979, the skeletal remains of a man were found on the mountainside near Resolven, South Wales, United Kingdom. He has not yet been identified and therefore his family cannot be notified. “The man is believed to have been born between the World Wars and was therefore aged between 40 and 60 at the time of his death. He was white with short grey hair, and of stocky build. He would have walked with a limp as his right leg was fused at the knee and he would not have been able to bend it.”“Although no return ticket was traced, he had British Airways timetables for 1978.
“He also had a Salvation Testament with the name ‘D Malan’ and the address PO Box Randburg, Johannesburg, South Africa on the flyleaf.”“A commemorative bookmark for a Christian mission conducted in King William’s Town by ‘Rhodes Varsity Trekkers’ which was held at Easter 1960 was also found,“ Tilley said.
