THEY THOUGHT HE WAS TALKING TO SOMEONE, BY HIS WAY OF WALKING I COULD TELL THAT IT WAS HIM: Matej's father about the mysterious recordings and the words of his friends

Search for Matej Periš (27), who went missing during the night between 30 and 31 December, enters its 19th day and no one can confirm with certainty whether the young man from Split went into the Sava river. 

As Telegraf.rs finds out, the inspectors of the Belgrade police are trying to determine, based on the last recorded video from the camera of the Savanova restaurant, whether the silhouette seen at the bottom of the video corresponds to the missing young man Matej Periš.

- I cannot say with complete certainty whether the guy walking towards the stairs is my son. The recording is bad and incomplete. By the way he walks, I can say that this is my Matej, but not with complete certainty. I must say that this is a job for a police expert - Nenad Periš, the father of the missing young man, told Telegraf.rs.

According to him, he can conclude from the video that "the pace of that silhouette descending and that of Matej is the same".

- I believe in the work of the Belgrade police. And I believe that my son is alive, even though the percentage is small now. It is difficult for me, as it is for every parent in my situation - Periš says.

Matej's father Nenad Periš

In a conversation with Telegraph, he confirmed that he is in daily contact with his daughters and wife, who expect him to return with Matej.

- I'm talking to a friend of my son's. It is not easy for them because of everything that happened. They just told me they didn’t look for him right away because they thought he was talking to someone - Periš says.
