Police leading the search for missing Allan Bryant Jr have searched a house in Glenrothes, The Courier can reveal.
Officers swooped on a property in the town’s Barnton Place on Friday morning, more than three years after the then 23-year-old was last seen.
It is understood that they have been inside the property for most of the day, with Detective Inspector Stuart Wilson of Police Scotland’s Major Investigation Team confirming that the developments are in connection with the investigation into Mr Bryant’s disappearance.
He said: “Officers executed a search warrant at an address in Barnton Place, Glenrothes, on Friday June 16 in connection with the ongoing investigation into missing man, Allan Bryant.
“We remain committed to getting answers for the Bryant family and any information we receive from the community will be assessed and further action taken wherever appropriate.”
Mr Wilson added: “Anyone who may have information about Allan’s movements after he left Styx nightclub in Caskieberran Road in the early hours of 3 November 2013 is urged to get in touch as soon as possible and can pass information to Police Scotland by calling 101 or emailing operationtoner@scotland.pnn.police.uk”
Allan Jr was 23 when he disappeared after a night out with friends on November 3 2013.
He had been at Styx Nightclub on Glenrothes’ Caskieberran Road, with CCTV footage showing him leaving the venue in the early hours of the morning.
High-profile appeals have been made by both his family and the police, while searches have been conducted throughout the town and across Fife.
However, there remains no trace of Allan Jr, who would now be 27, with his father having stated on several occasions his belief that his son is dead.
An emotional Allan Bryant Sr, told The Courier said that he hopes that the search will provide the breakthrough his family craves.
“I just hope that something comes from it,” he said.
“We are playing a waiting game now.
“I can’t go up there myself, it would just be too much”
