THE family of a missing Brit are desperate to get him home for Christmas after he vanished during a holiday to Benidorm.
John Hardy (pictured above), 36, vanished after driving to the holiday resort from Alicante some six days ago.
The father-of-two missed his flight home to Belfast on Wednesday, sparking serious concern among loved ones.
His sister Courtney George told the Olive Press today that Northern Irish police are now requesting to work with Spanish authorities on the case.
She told Good Morning Ulster: “We want him home and we want him safe. He has a family that loves and adores him… He has two sons… The unknown is the killer.”
The sibling added that the family is ‘distraught’ and are desperate to get him home for Christmas, pleading for anyone with information to come forward.
A post online by relatives this week revealed how his last contact with his family was a ‘very distressed’ phone call.
