Mom of boy who went missing 33 years ago pleads for cops to question ‘persons of interest’ in son’s

Kerry Needham is still searching for answers about what happened to her toddler Ben, who went missing from the Greek island of Kos

The mom of a British boy who went missing 33 years ago is urging police to continue their investigation by speaking to persons of interest.

Kerry Needham was working at a hotel on the Greek island of Kos when her son, Ben, suddenly disappeared on 24 July, 1991.

Ben had been staying with his grandparents while his mom was at work, and was last seen playing in front of a farmhouse.

As she prepared to mark the 33rd anniversary of Ben’s disappearance yesterday, Needham spoke to The Mirror about her continued search for answers.

She is currently awaiting the results of a DNA conducted on a Danish man who came forward claiming he could be her missing son.

The man claimed his grandparents informed him that he had been taken from Kos, and said even his own parents never denied the claims.

He even allegedly recalled visiting a market and hearing someone shout ‘Ben’; an incident that resulted in him being kept in a caravan for years.

However, this is the third person since Ben vanished who has suggested they could be the missing child, so Kerry is cautious over the claims.

A number of theories about what happened to Ben have been thrown around over the years, including one from a digger driver who allegedly confessed that he may have killed the young boy.
