Detective Superintendent Julian Gregory, Head of the Norfolk and Suffolk Major Investigation Team, said:

It is very important that we trace Mr Melaniuk and extensive enquiries have been carried out to try to find him. I hope that the reward of up to £5000 will be an incentive for anyone who knows where he may be to make contact with us so that we can locate this man.
