Suffolk Police are making a national appeal for help in tracing the next of kin of a 59-year-old man, who was taken to hospital un-conscious on Sunday 28 September 2003, suffering from head injuries.
Almost two years on from the incident Edward George Nelson, who lived in London Road South in Lowestoft, remains in a coma-like state in hospital.
Over the past 22 months Suffolk Police have made numerous enquiries to try to locate Mr Nelsons next of kin.
Officers have spoken to his friends, checked personal documents, followed up possible leads provided and have made a number of media appeals locally as well as targeted appeals in areas where it had been suggested that he may have relatives, including Grimsby, Birmingham and Tunbridge Wells. However, to date, no one has been traced or come forward.
Now police are issuing a further nation-wide appeal for anyone who may have information about Mr Nelsons next of kin to contact them.
If you have any information that may help police trace Mr Nelsons relatives please call Lowestoft CID on 01986 835100.
