Constable Tony Easter said yesterday that the police had recovered some property belonging to Mr Karsten Steen, aged 20, from the banks of the Waikato River. The property included a passport, a substantial
amount of New Zealand and Danish currency, and some clothing, Constable Easter said.

He arrived in Hamilton about September 28, and has fair hair, blue eyes, and is 187 cm (6ft
