A close friend of a missing Lithuanian man from Bournemouth has issued an emotional plea for help in finding him.

Twenty-one year old Jurij Sliachtecov [Yur-ee Slee-ash-teckov], was reported missing on the First of May, and police say they're 'gravely concerned' for his welfare.

Julija Paskevica [Yula Pash-kev-itska] says Jurij's disappearance is 'extremely upsetting' and 'very unlike' him, and that his family and friends 'just want to be sure you are OK'.
