‘We are hoping that there will be some clues from this and the TV appeal, and it is all very hard to track him so far as we have so little to go on.
‘Although his phone was left behind in the hotel room, we are now waiting for documents from his phone company from Icelandic police that could have vital clues. Pledging that the family will stay in Ireland until his brother is found, he said: ‘So far, there had been no activity on Jon’s bank accounts or social media. Having made an appeal on the Late Late Show at the weekend, David said that they are planning on making another TV appeal on Crimecall later. ‘Gardai are collating all the information today and we hope that it will bring us closer.’ Jon has a distrinctive dragon tattoo on his arm. ‘We have all kinds of statements from people and hopefully there is something there that can help. Speaking of the search findings, David said: ‘Some people may have saw him, nothing has been confirmed yet. He was last seen at the exit of Highfield Hospital heading northbound on the Swords Road towards Collins Avenue. Jon left the Bonnington Hotel at 11.05am on February 9 and was seen on CCTV at McGettigan’s bar at 11.07am, exiting onto the Swords Road heading towards the airport. Daniel and David Wiium hold a missing poster of their brother Jon Jonsson. Speaking about the search operation, he said that they may have leads and tips from the CCTV footage handed over by businesses and people in the area where Jon was last seen. He said the family are baffled by the mysterious disappearance of the much loved partner, father and step father, who had shown no signs of anything unusual prior to going missing. Here since February 13, he told Extra.ie that he humbled by the support of the locals and poker community that turned up at the weekend to help them bring his brother home. Recalling how he got the phone call from Jana to say that she had reported his brother missing on February 10, David said that he was initially unconcerned but quickly began to book flights to Ireland as the days went by. I saw footage of him the night before he disappeared at the venue and he did not look upset.’ Jon is a devoted family man and the disappearance is totally out of character, his family say. ‘They both travel around Europe and have gone to various poker tournaments over the last number of years, and his participation in this event was not unusual. ‘He makes a living driving a taxi but his main hobby, and that too of Jana, is playing poker.

The family of Jon Jonsson missing in Dublin will make a TV appeal tonight. Speaking to Extra.ie about the search for his older brother, David said that he has watched footage of Jon playing cards the night before in the hotel, and there was ‘nothing out of the ordinary about his demeanour’.
