New Image Of Ben Needham Released
A new graphic image, depicting what missing toddler Ben Needham might look like today, has been released ahead of his 18th birthday.
Ben vanished from the Greek island of Kos in 1991, when he was just 21 months old.
The new image, which will be posed on the National Missing Persons website, shows what Ben, who would be 18 on October 29, might look like today.
The picture was produced by the facial imaging team at the Metropolitan Police at the request of Ben's mother, Kerry Grist from Sheffield.
Many theories have been put forward to explain Ben's disappearance, including that he was murdered, abducted by a child-smuggling gang or taken for adoption by a family, which could not have children.
His family have never given up hope that he will be found alive.
