A BOLSOVER man who disaappeared two months ago has been found dead on a mountain on Kos - sparking a murder inquiry on the Greek holiday island.
Sixty-year-old Stuart Crane went missing just days before he was due to fly home from the holiday isle.

Greek police say they have launched a murder inquiry because his tickets, luggage and passport were found at his hotel – without the £1,500 he had on him.

It is also been reported that he vanished after ringing home in a confused state saying he had fallen, banged his head and lost his memory.

Mirror.co.uk reported on Wednesday that the father-of-three failed to return to his hotel the next day, leaving his luggage and passport behind.

His son Tony told mirror.co.uk: "I knew someone had done something dreadful to him when he disappeared.

"People like dad don't simply vanish. Climbing mountains and hiking weren't his thing. He would never have gone off into the hills on his own."

Derbyshire Police say they are in contact with the authorities in Kos.

Said a spokesman: "A man's body has been found, and we are awaiting formal identification. The cause of death has not yet been established, and it may be several weeks before the results of the post-mortem are known. We are awaiting the results."
