Police are asking for the public’s help in finding a man who they say uncharacteristically went missing without a word from a Mississauga home earlier this month.

Peel Regional Police say the missing 29-year-old man (see photo below), whose given name is Moounir, was last seen on Nov. 6 at about 10 p.m. at a home in the area of Dundas Street and Hurontario Street in Cooksville.

The man, who is of no fixed address, according to police, was reported missing last Friday night.

“Police and family are concerned for Moounir’s well-being because it is very out of character for him not to have any contact with anyone,” police said in a news release.

Moounir is described as standing 5-foot-11 and weighing 125 pounds with short dark hair and a moustache. He has a thin build and was last seen wearing a black jacket, shirt, pants, shoes and a green and red belt.

Anyone with information is asked to call investigators with the 11 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau at 905-453–2121, ext. 1133, or Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Under a new policy adopted earlier this year regarding missing persons and what information will be released via social media or to the media, Peel police now only release the given names of missing people when the news release is accompanied by a photo.

Surnames will only be provided if “there is an investigative value to do so,” police say.

Toronto Police and other police forces adopted a similar policy this year.
