An inquest into Kieron Knowlden’s death has been adjourned until Tuesday, June 24.

The 25-year-old’s body was discovered in the River Medway, near Lyons Crescent in Tonbridge, last week after nearly three weeks of searching.

The father-of-one, who lived in Forest Grove, was last seen on Saturday, March 1 at Mojo’s Bar, in Barden Lane.

A precise time has not yet been set.

Mother Donna Burchell said: “Kieron was a loving son, brother, uncle and dad who will be greatly missed by everyone.”
