Tui flight mystery as man's body found on plane but no-one knows who he is

Police are trying to trace the identity of a man found dead in the undercarriage of a plane that landed at Gatwick Airport.

An e-fit was released yesterday of the man, who was hiding as a stowaway. His body was discovered under the jet at about 4am on December 7 last year. The Tui flight had originated in the Gambian capital of Banjul.

The man is thought to be in either his 20s or 30s, with British police attempting to identify him. There is no indication as to whether he is from Gambia, or may have come from a neighbouring country in a bid to enter the UK.
