Police have confirmed a body has been found in marshland in Sandown today (Wednesday).
Recovery of the body is taking place and a cordon has been put in place at the current time to allow this to happen.
Family of missing man notified
The body has yet to be formally identified, but the family of missing holidaymaker, Michael Davies, from Blaina in Wales, have been informed.
The 71 year old, who was on holiday on the Island with his wife, went missing on 27th May.
Widespread searches and appeals
Police issued several appeals for the missing man over the last four weeks, most recently at the end of last week with new unseen CCTV footage.
The police are not treating the death as suspicious.
Our thoughts are with all those involved.
