Baljeev’s sister, Haneet, has spoken of her brother and appealed for anyone with any information as to his whereabouts to contact police.

“As a family we are extremely concerned for his safety, this is completely out of character for him and we need to know if he is OK.’

“It is difficult to carry on with normal daily life and we are all struggling with the knowledge he is out there without knowing if he is safe.’

“I want to speak directly to my brother and ask him to call me. If he could just call me and tell me he is alright.

He wears glasses and was last seen wearing a slim white shirt with a black jacket and black trousers.
