Timothy Chu is a 27 year old British national who works as a police officer with the Metropolitan Police in London. He went missing while diving in Canada on 5 July 2015, while on vacation.

The rescue team in Canada has called off the search on Monday night. We, as extremely anxious family and friends of Timothy, urgently petition for the British High Commission Ottawa to request the Canadian authorities to continue search for Timothy Chu.

Chu’s brother Joshua Chu said from Hong Kong Timothy is “skilled in survival and no stranger to challenge” having served in the British Army and named soldier of the year in 2011. We believe there is high hope that Timothy is still alive and must be found ASAP.

Please sign this petition so that the search for Timothy will continue.

Timothy, who has been diving since he was a teenage, was with a dive master from the Ogden Point Dive Centre.

“His family pleads with Canadian and US authorities, as well as the British Consulate to continue the search,” Joshua said in a statement. “Given the powerful current and miles of coastline on both Canadian and U.S. sides, they also ask anyone finding signs of the diver to contact police and email rescue.timo@gmail.com.”
