Police Scotland are asking for the public’s help in tracing a man who absconded from Dungavel Immigratio­n Centre.

Guxim Imerio (25) is from Albania and was last seen at 9.40pm on Monday, November 6.

It is understood that he got out of Scotland’s only Home Office detention facility by clinging to the underside of a van.

He is described as 5ft 6ins, average build with short black hair and brown eyes.

He has a clear complexion with an oval face and sharp features, and is possibly unshaven.

Imerio is not fluent in English.

When last seen, he was wearing a light- grey hooded top with a green Liverpool FC top underneath and grey jogging bottoms.

He is not known to have family in the UK, but may have some links in the Manchester area, and as such could be making efforts to return to this location. Inspector Higgins of East Kilbride Police Office said: “Guxim has no knowledge of the local area and Police Scotland wish to ensure that he is safe and well.

“I’d encourage members of the public to contact police immediatel­y if they have any informatio­n on the whereabout­s of Guxim Imerio, or have any informatio­n which could assist Police Scotland in tracing him.

“If you live in the vicinity of Dungavel you may have seen someone of similar descriptio­n in the local area walking, seeking shelter or hitchhikin­g?”

Imerio is not considered a threat to the public.

Anyone with informatio­n should contact officers at East Kilbride via telephone number 101 quoting incident number 4035 of November 6.

We wish to ensure he is safe and well
