The search for a British TV doctor missing on the Greek islands will now focus on a maze of tunnels known as ‘The Abyss’.
At least 100 rescuers and volunteers, including a helicopter, are searching the area between Agios Nikolaos and the island’s main town for the 67-year-old.
Firefighters are now exploring an area called the Abyss, a water-filled cave tunnel system believed to be miles long.
Greek authorities believe Moseley may have been out for a walk at the time, with the local mayor commenting that it was an unusual route.
In a statement yesterday, Moseley’s wife Claire said the days her husband was missing had been “the longest and most excruciating”.
”The search continues and our family is so grateful to the people of Symi, the Greek authorities and the British Consulate who are working tirelessly to help find Michael,” she said.
The couple’s four children are on their way to the island to help with the search.
Mosley is well known in Britain for his regular appearances on television and radio and for his column in Daily Mail newspaper.
He is known outside the UK for his 2013 book The fast dietwhich he co-authored with journalist Mimi Spencer.
The 5:2 Diet describes how people can lose weight fast by minimizing calorie intake two days a week while eating healthy the other five.
He subsequently introduced the Fast 800 diet, a rapid weight loss program, and made a number of diet and exercise films.
Mosley often pushed his body to extremes to see the effects of his diets and also lived with a tapeworm in his gut for six weeks for the BBC documentary infected! Life with parasites.
