The spokesperson said: "Regarding the tracksuit, the information about Daniel wearing a second tracksuit was only communicated to us on 26/3/2023, so wasn’t included in the five missing from home appeals which went out in December 2022.".

About ten years ago, Daniel made the decision to move to Preston in Lancashire to "search for bigger and better things".
