          I know who ‘murdered’ my son, 23, on night out a decade ago… cops say he’s missing but they need to probe vital clue

          A DESPERATE dad says he knows who “murdered” his son, after he went missing over 12 years ago.

          Allan Bryant Jr disappeared while on a night out on November 3 2013, but he’s never been found and no one ever brought to justice.

          The then-23-year-old was spotted on CCTV leaving Styx nightclub in Glenrothes, Fife, in Scotland, around 2am – but what happened next remains a mystery.

          Mr Bryant said his family has accepted his son is dead but he and his family, including Allan’s mum Marie and sisters Amy and Sophie, want closure.

          He told The Sun he’s passed thousands of tip-offs over the years to Police Scotland, but ultimately without any luck. 

          Mr Bryant said he “begged” the force to release a clip of the CCTV video footage, which they finally did months after the disappearance.

          The determined dad is adamant he knows who killed his boy and hopes it is just a matter of time before someone comes forward with information that could lead to a conviction.

          He said: “A lot of people have come forward and it all points in the same direction about what happened to Allan.”

          In 2015, the family was passed information to police which suggested Allan had gone to a house party after leaving the club.

          Two years later, cops searched a house in Glenrothes for 33 days as part of the investigation but nothing came of it.

          Mr Bryant later voiced fears that his son had been in contact with a crime gang weeks before he vanished.

          He told The Sun this week: “We believe he went to a houseparty, something happened at a houseparty.”

          He said on studying the CCTV from the nightclub, it’s clear Allan heads in a different direction than if he were going home.

          Mr Bryant believes those who may have witnessed what happened to his son remain too scared to speak to detectives.  

          “I believe that without a doubt. We just need that one bit of the jigsaw… everything stems from there,” he said.

          Mr Bryant and his family moved out of the home they’d lived in with Allan in 2018, but still regularly use the same local shops and haunts.

          He feels the mystery over his son’s death has created a dark cloud over the town, with people avoiding him and even “stare at Allan’s mum” without speaking.

          The dad claims one person – who he believes witnessed his son’s death – has told people while drunk: “I know what happened to Allan.”

          Mr Bryant – who has been supported by charity Missing People – said he’s met other families in the same position as him, admitting “it takes its toll”.

          “Some families just can’t do it,” he continued. “You’re tired and you have bad nightmares. It’s like you’re digging up skeletons because it’s going to be bones we find.

          “It takes four to five months for a human body to decompose.

          “These thoughts go through your head and it’s hard to sleep. Some days are harder than others. It’s just getting harder and more difficult.”

          Mr Bryant said Allan would sometimes stay out for a couple of days at a time, but he always kept his parents informed about where he was.

          His phone had been smashed a couple of weeks before his disappearance and he hadn’t got round to getting a replacement when he went on what was a Saturday night out with pals over the Halloween weekend.

          Mr Bryant said Allan had his number memorised so would often call off his friends’ phones.

          “It was weird, I always knew where he was, he’d always let me know – this time when we woke up on the Sunday morning I said ‘I’ve got a feeling something’s not right’. 

          “We just felt something was really wrong. We held out for a day and then we reported him missing on the Monday.

          “I just knew in my gut something bad had happened.”

          On the Saturday evening, Mr Bryant said Allan was “in a really really happy mood”.

          He had some of his friends over for pre-drinks before they headed out to an engagement party at Leslie Golf Club on the outskirts of town, and then to the nightclub.

          Timeline of missing Allan Bryant Jr case

          November 3 2013: Allan Bryant Jr disappeared on a night out with friends

          June 2014: Police Scotland released CCTV of Allan Jr leaving Styx nightclub at 2.02am

          2015: Allan’s family passed information to police through local contacts that he had gone to a house party the night he vanished

          2017: Police searched a house in Glenrothes for 33 days as part of their investigation

          2017: Allan’s dad Allan Sr voiced fears his son may have had contact with organised gang members weeks before he went missing

          2023: Allan Sr, wife Marie and daughter Amy held a media conference on the 10-year anniversary of the disappearance

          “The last time I talked to him he was about to leave the house, he was with a few friends having a drink,” Mr Bryant recalled. 

          “I preferred them sitting in the house rather than on the streets. Sometimes I could sit with them and have a laugh. 

          “He came downstairs all happy. He asked me for some money to go to an engagement party. He was in a really really happy mood.”

          Mr Bryant said he later spoke to a barman working at the golf club who said he had refused to sell Allan another alcoholic drink as he seemed too intoxicated.

          He said Allan had instead politely asked for a pint of water.

          Mr Bryant said his son’s bedroom was left as it was for a while but eventually it was cleaned.

          “It wasn’t in the best state,” he joked, as Allan and his pals had left empty beer cans. “It took a wee while.”

          One of Allan’s sisters took a piece of the wallpaper from the bedroom when the family eventually moved out, and they kept some of his things, including his beloved Celtic top.

          Mr Bryant said he feels that police have been difficult ever since Allan vanished.

          “They will only give me so much information because I don’t think they trust me,” he said.

          He claims sniffer dogs have never been used and the family even had to hire professionals themselves to scour an area for Allan’s remains after a tip off.

          Mr Bryant continued: “I had to fight to get the CCTV released. Any other missing person case that would be released straight away. 

          “I was told it was data protection. I think it would be different if Allan was a woman. If he was a 23-year-old woman in a nightclub it would be released straight away. 

          “He was just a guy on a night out.”

          Mr Bryant added: “I don’t know if we’ll ever find the truth but you’ve always got to hope, hold onto that bit of hope. 

          “I just need to keep Allan’s photo out there so people don’t forget about him.”

          A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Allan Bryant remains a missing person and officers continue to make enquiries to trace him.

          “Any new information will be assessed and anyone who can assist should call Police Scotland on 101.”
