THE family of a missing banker have expressed "great sadness" after the discovery of a body.

Police believe a body found with gun shot wounds on Sunday (28/06) in Windsor is likely to be that of Huibert Boumeester who has been missing since Monday. June 22.

A statement has been released by the family, which said: 'Since his disappearance, we have hoped for a positive ending. We are deeply grieved by what we must now assume is a tragic outcome. We express our thanks to all those people who have been searching for Huibert these past days. We are left with great sadness.'

The corpse was discovered in woodland near Drift Road after a resident phoned police after spotting an abandoned Range Rover parked in the area.

On Friday last week police issued an appeal to trace the Dutch banker, 49, from Belgravia, West London, who was last seen in Windsor Great Park.
