The body of a 'gentle' man has been found near a major road, with a police investigation launched into his 'unexplained' death.
Shahab Uddin was first reported missing from the Loughborough area in the early hours of Wednesday, August 13.
Hundreds of local volunteers joined the desperate search to locate the 40-year-old, with drones used to search nearby countryside.
During the frantic search, concerns were raised for Mr Uddin's welfare. He was described as vulnerable with learning difficulties, alongside being dependent upon medication.
Mr Uddin's heartbroken family launched several local appeals in a desperate bid to locate him, describing feeling left ‘absolutely broken’ by his unexpected disappearance.
