“The main thing is everything worked out well,” he told reporters. “We’re just happy that dad’s alive and that he’s going to come back home,” he told reporters in Australia.

Mr Tromp was eventually found shortly before yesterday, safe and well by police in the regional city of Wangaratta, after being spotted by a passer-by.

Mitchell expressed a situation of real fear told media on Thursday everyday pressures had got to the family and they just wanted to escape.
