Identification Update
Important Update
We have now ceased working to resolve cases of unidentified people. This change supports the belief of the charity that the main responsibility for identification of these cases is within the public sector. Missing People will continue to campaign for a national, standard, police system for matching missing person reports to unidentified bodies.
Reporting unidentified cases/database searches
In future all unidentified cases should be reported to the National Policing Improvements Agency (NPIA) Missing Person’s Bureau - www.npia.police.uk/missingpersons or email: missingpersonsbureau@npia.pnn.police.uk
We will no longer be registering unidentified cases and will only undertake database searches at the request of NPIA. Should the NPIA wish to search the charity’s historical data on unidentified cases they will then liaise with us.
Forensic artwork for unidentified cases
We will no longer offer forensic artwork services or publicity on unidentified cases. If you require forensic artwork services, please note that you can contact Teri Blythe via email, call 07812 540085, or gain full details from the NPIA Specialist Operations Unit Database of Expert Advisers.
