Further enquiries have since led detectives to believe he is in the Great Yarmouth area.

Speaking on behalf of his family, Yusef’s sister, Jamima said: “It’s difficult to describe the despair that we are feeling as a family after almost five days of not knowing if Yusef was safe and well.

“Seeing new images of him has brought a level of reassurance, but we will only be truly relieved when he is home where he belongs.

"Please if you see him tell him to get in touch, he’s not in any trouble we just want him back with us.

“Yusef, if you are reading this, please, we are begging you to come home.

"We are all so worried about you and just want you to know how much we love you and care for you. Please brother, come home."

Officers would like to speak to anyone who may have seen Yusuf since he was reported missing.

Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Inspector Jon Wheeler, said: “We have been working closely with Yusef’s family and it is abundantly clear that this is deeply out of character which has raised our concerns further.

“We have a dedicated team of officers working to locate Yusef and piece together his movements.

“I would like to urge anyone with information to come forward immediately, and join Yusef’s family in pleading with him to come home.

"You are not in any trouble, our main aim is to ensure your safety and welfare."

Anyone with information is asked to call 101 quoting reference 448 of October 28.
