00:02On Sydney's rural fringe, a breakthrough in the search for Chris Bagzarian.
00:07This derelict house in Jural is believed to have been used by his kidnappers.
00:12A quick search of the property did not locate Mr Bagzarian.
00:17What we did locate was evidence to suggest that Mr Bagzarian was held there at some stage during the last
00:25seven days.
00:25The 85-year-old was snatched from his North Ryde home last Friday in what police believe was a case
00:32of mistaken identity.
00:34Last night, detectives swarmed the Jural property, thought to have been vacant for years.
00:40It's covered with trees, you can't really see much.
00:43Yeah, a lot of police around and yeah, something big's happened.
00:47Yeah, you wouldn't expect a lot of police in this area.
00:50Police combed the property today in search for any fresh leads.
00:54We don't know who is responsible, so we're after assistance from the public to give us information, no matter how
01:02small they think it is.
01:03This is obviously an active police operation. We obviously hope that this man is returned safely.
01:10Seven days on from his kidnapping, police say hopes are fading Mr Bagzarian is still alive.
01:16But detectives have vowed to continue working around the clock to find him.
01:20His family, this is not their world that they live in. It's taken them by shock.
01:25They're anxious, they're devastated and they want some answers.
01:29Police have directly appealed to Jural locals to report if they've seen anything suspicious.
