Inspector Richard Ross said: “We are very concerned for Humza’s welfare and I would urge anyone who believes they may have seen him or spoken to him recently to get in touch as soon as they can.

“I would also urge anyone who may have been travelling in the north-west Highlands, particularly on the main routes between Ullapool, Durness and Lairg to think back and let us know if they think they may have seen Humza. Anyone who may have dashcam footage is also asked to review this and pass on anything of note.

“I would also urge anyone who has a shed or outbuilding where someone could seek shelter to check this.”

Humza is described as 5ft 5in in height, with black hair and when last seen he was wearing a black jacket with fur on the collar, black trousers and a grey hooded top.

Anyone with any information can call police via 101 quoting reference number 1707 of Thursday, 23 June, 2022.
