Jay Slater disappearance has links to 'criminal network', TV detective Mark Williams-Thomas has said
A private investigator claims his probe into the disappearance of Jay Slater has opened up an "established criminal network with links to drugs, violent crime and thefts". Former Met Police officer Mark Williams-Thomas headed to Tenerife last week in the hope of getting to the bottom of the teen's disappearance.
Further gravitas was added to the situation when TV detective Mark Williams-Thomas suggested that the case potentially had connections with organised crime. Having travelled to Tenerife to assist in locating Jay, Williams-Thomas stated that further inquiries have revealed an established underworld network linked to drugs, violent offences and theft, reports the Mirror.
On Sunday, it was disclosed that Ayub Qassim, 31, known for his imprisonment nine years prior over a plot to flood Wales with Class A drugs, is the elusive 'Jonny Vegas' alleged to have driven the missing teenager to the vacant holiday rental. He further detailed the narrative explaining that upon arriving at the Airbnb, Qassim's friend fell asleep, whereas Jay was given a blanket and phone charger before deciding to catch a bus which "comes every 10 minutes".
Mr Williams-Thomas added that Qassim told him he then went to sleep and was awoken by the sound of the door buzzing. He added: "Qassim opened the door and spoke to a woman and man and they told him to move his car, which he did and he said he could see Jay chatting to a woman." It is thought that Qassim invited the young lad back to his place after a rave in the south of the island, and then Jay was nowhere to be found the following day. The 31 year old, alongside an unnamed mate, has been cooperating with Spanish coppers and has even prolonged his stay on Tenerife to help out with the case.
