Son found, but parents can't see him
The parents of a man missing for six years have been told that he is safe and well in Spain, but they have no way of contacting him.
Matthew Green went missing from his family home in Kent with just his passport and £1,700.
The police have told them that he's been found, but can't reveal his location or contact details as he is an adult.
His mother, Pauline, said "I've known deep down for the six years that he's been alive".
She said "I need somebody to help us get over data protection. I need to see him, but our hands are tied".
"I've asked for his location, I've asked for a picture, even a picture of his tattoos, but it's all no because of data protection".
