Jay Slater police haven't answered 'big' final question which is 'crucial'

Jay Slater police have not answered one "big" final question following the 19-year-old disappearing in Tenerife. Jay left his friends after partying in the Canary Islands, with a big unanswered question being why Jay went off with two mystery men.

Spanish cops in the Canary Islands say the men have nothing to do with the disappearance of the apprentice bricklayer. But TV sleuth and investigator, former detective Mark Williams-Thomas, has described the men as "key witnesses”.

He said: "I need to speak to those people because they are the last people, other than the owner of the holiday rental, that saw Jay. I believe they have crucial information that may enable us to find out what has happened to Jay. They were in the bars of the strip area, certainly, for two days, they mixed with Jay and Jay's group of friends that were there.

"There will be many people asking very pertinent questions into why were they here, what were they doing, why did they take Jay back to that holiday rental?" Slater, an apprentice bricklayer, had been holidaying in Tenerife with friends and went to the three-day NRG Tenerife Weekender festival at venues in the island’s Playa de las Americas resort.

In the early hours of the Monday morning, he apparently left the resort in a car with two British men and headed to an Airbnb property in Masca, a remote hilltop hamlet in the north-west of the island. He was last heard from at about 8.15am when he told a friend, Lucy Law, that he planned to walk back to his holiday accommodation after missing a bus, a journey that would take him 10-11 hours on foot.

Slater also said he was thirsty, had 1% of charge left on his phone and did not know where he was.
