The body of Maurizio Mereu, the 48-year-old from Assemini who disappeared in London on February 24, has been found lifeless.
His sister Manuela announced it on the program “Chi l'ha visto”: « He had a sudden illness», the woman said, «and now he is resting in peace with our father. We would have preferred never to find him, living with the hope of seeing him again sooner or later. We thank those who helped us look for him and have been close to us in these last weeks. Now, especially my mother, we need to be alone for a while, in silence and try to deal with this terrible pain».
The last images that had captured him were taken from the CCTV system at London Stansted airport.
The man had not been able to bring forward the direct flight London-Cagliari for Sunday 23, the day he had arrived at the airport. The last image that had immortalized him was on Monday 24 February, at 6.20 in the morning , while he was leaving the airport walking away for at least 6 minutes.
