Police Scotland has released CCTV footage of the last movements of missing Glenrothes man Allan Bryant.
Allan, 24, has not been seen since he left the Styx nightclub in the Fife town last November 3.
The footage shows the 24-year-old, in a hooped top, walking through the nightclub’s foyer. It then switches to an external view, where Allan is seen stumbling as he climbs steps.His disappearance has resulted in a huge ongoing search, involving thousands of hours of officers’ time, the use of specialist resources including search dogs, police divers and the air support unit.Local Area Commander Nicola Shepherd said: “The release of any CCTV has to be done in accordance with the law governing the release of such images and I am happy that the footage is now able to be released now that it complies with the guidelines we have been issued.
“I hope that the video we have issued today will help jog the memory of people who were in Styx nightclub that night and again I would again appeal to anyone who has information that may assist us in finding Allan to contact us.
“Police Scotland has a dedicated family liaison officer who is in regular contact with Allan’s family and will continue to support them.
“The investigation into Allan’s disappearance has been difficult mainly due to the lack of information and I share the family’s frustration in this regard.
Officers from Police Scotland continue to search for Allan and the investigation continues.”
Earlier on Thursday, Allan’s familyhad told The Courier of their desire for Police Scotland to release the footage, arguing it could help to end the mystery surrounding his disappearance.
Anyone with information can phone police on 101 or speak anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
