Ahead of the 24th anniversary of the disappearance of Trevor Deely, investigating gardaí have issued a fresh appeal for information.

On December 7 2000, the 22-year-old went missing after attending his Christmas work party at the Hilton Hotel in Dublin 2.

Mr Deely, originally from Naas and Ballsbridge, proceeded to Buck Whaley's nightclub on Leeson Street, which he left between 2.30am and 3.25am on December 8.

The weather on the night in question was extremely wet and there was a taxi strike in progress.

At 3.35am, he called to the Bank of Ireland Asset Management Officers on Fitzwilliam Place. 

CCTV footage at the rear entrance showed him conversing with an unknown male at the back gate of the building.

Investigating officers are still looking to identify this male.

Mr Deely was last sighted on CCTV passing the Bank of Ireland ATM on Haddington Road at 04.14am.
