The family of a respected British doctor have made an emotional plea for help as the search for their loved one enters its fifth day on Spain's Costa del Sol.
Dr. Donal O'Sullivan, a 42-year-old doctor from the UK, vanished during a holiday in the popular resort town of Fuengirola. He was last seen on Friday evening, leaving his family increasingly desperate for answers.
The mysterious disappearance began when Dr. O'Sullivan failed to return to the apartment where he was staying with relatives. Concerned family members reported him missing to Spanish authorities on Saturday morning, sparking an immediate search operation.
His sister, Aisling O'Sullivan, spoke directly to the public in a heartfelt video appeal: "We're desperately worried about Donal. This is completely out of character for him. We just want him home safe."
Local Spanish police have been conducting extensive searches throughout the coastal region, while the family have been distributing flyers and appealing to both local residents and tourists for any information that might help locate the missing doctor.
The case has drawn attention from both British and Spanish authorities, with the Foreign Office confirming they are providing support to the family during this deeply distressing time.
Dr. O'Sullivan is described as approximately 6 feet tall with short brown hair. He was last seen wearing a blue t-shirt and dark trousers. Anyone with information is urged to contact local police immediately.
