He left there around noon on 2 August 2008 to return home for his birthday, but never arrived.[8] When he disappeared he had little money and no change of clothes.[1] Sloley did not have his passport with him.[7] Sloley had a mobile phone with him but it stopped connecting when he went missing.[7] His disappearance was uncharacteristic.[2]Police found nothing to indicate where Sloley may have gone.[3] \u201cIt\u2019s like he disappeared off the face of the planet,\u201d one officer said in 2012.[4] No trace of Sloley was ever recovered from CCTV footage.[2]Subsequent investigation[edit]In September 2009 a possible sighting was reported in Ilford, east London, but has never been confirmed.[3] In October 2009 the charity Missing People and supermarket Iceland arranged for Sloley’s story and photo to appear on milk cartons.[3] Sloley’s was one of the first cases to be publicised in such a manner, and he was featured on nearly 13.5 million milk cartons.[9]In July 2015, Sloley’s mother Nerissa Tivy was surprised to learn that police had received numerous reports of sightings in 2009. Tivy stated that she had met with police a number of times and they had never told her about this list.[10]In September 2017 Mick Neville, retired head of the Metropolitan Police\u2019s Central Images Unit, drew comparisons between Sloley’s disappearance and that of another bright maths student who disappeared without a trace in London.[11]Andrew Gosden was 14 when he disappeared in 2007, less than a year before Sloley.[11] Gosden’s last known location was King\u2019s Cross, and when Sloley disappeared he was thought to have been on his way to Islington, which is two miles from King\u2019s Cross.[11] \u201cIt raises the question on whether there is a serial killer on the prowl? …the potential links between these cases need to be recognised,\u201d said Neville.[11]In September 2019, the Metropolitan Police released an updated e-fit depicting Sloley as he may have looked at that time.[6] It was reported that there had been no use of Sloley\u2019s national insurance, bank account or passport in the intervening 11 years.[6][7]Detective Constable Tom Boom of the Missing Persons Unit stated that there was no evidence of harm but the case had gone cold and there were no major leads.[7]See also[edit]References[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/disappearance-of-alex-sloley-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Disappearance of Alex Sloley – Wikipedia"}}]}]
