The force said it is not treating the death as suspicious and a file is being prepared for the coroner.

“Our thoughts are with Daniel’s family and friends at this very difficult time,” Herts Police said. “We please ask that they are given privacy as they mourn their loss.”

Police and members of the public had shared several appeals for information during the time Daniel was missing.
