Allan Bryant Missing Update: Family Renews Appeal 13 Years After Glenrothes Disappearance
The family of Allan Bryant is renewing its appeal for information 13 years after he disappeared in Glenrothes, Fife, Scotland. Despite extensive searches and repeated public appeals, his whereabouts remain unknown, leaving his loved ones without the answers they have sought since November 2013.
Allan was 23 when he went missing in the early hours of Sunday, November 3, 2013. He had spent the evening attending an engagement party at Leslie Golf Club with friends before travelling to Styx nightclub on Caskieberran Road. CCTV captured him leaving the venue at approximately 2:02 a.m. He was about a mile from his home on Ednam Drive, but he never returned.
His disappearance prompted extensive police enquiries and searches across the surrounding area. Despite numerous efforts to establish his movements after leaving the nightclub, no confirmed sighting of Allan has emerged.
On November 12, 2026, Allan’s mother, Marie, and sister, Amy, appeared on ITV’s This Morning alongside crime expert David Wilson to renew their appeal for information. They spoke about the continuing emotional strain of not knowing what happened to Allan and their determination to find answers.
The family has continued to mark the anniversary of his disappearance. In a message shared on November 3, Allan’s father, Allan Bryant Snr, reflected on the pain of another year without his son. The family also remembers Marie’s annual tradition of putting up balloons in Allan’s memory, a gesture that keeps his presence close despite his absence.
Police Scotland continues to treat Allan’s disappearance as a missing-person investigation. Officers have previously stated that enquiries have found no evidence indicating criminality, while stressing that information received from the public continues to be assessed.
The family is urging anyone who remembers seeing Allan that night, particularly after he left Styx nightclub, or who may have information about his movements, to come forward. Even details that may appear insignificant could help investigators establish what happened.
