A POLICE officer is believed to have drowned in Bristol harbour after going missing during a night out in a city centre.

PC Rehaan Akhtar, 28, had been drinking with friends in the city centre and was last seen in the early hours of November 23.

Avon Coroner's Court heard PC Akhtar did not return to the hostel where he was staying and was reported missing.

His body was recovered by divers from the harbourside on the morning of November 24.

Debbie Rookes, assistant coroner for Avon, opened and adjourned an inquest into PC Akhtar's death yesterday.

The hearing was told PC Akhtar was pronounced dead at 10.39am by PC Adam Rowland at Narrow Quay.
