A MAN found guilty of the murder of an Albury teenager in 1996 is missing from Goulburn.
Police are concerned for the welfare of Graham Mailes, 42, and have warned the community not to approach him, as he requires daily medication for a medical condition.

His disappearance was reported to Hume LAC Police who, after patrolling the area, were unable to locate the man.

He is described as being of Caucasian appearance, about 175cm tall, weighing 110kg, with long red frizzy hair and a cleft palette.
When he was last seen, Mr Mailes was wearing denim shorts, a brown polo shirt and lace-up work boots.
