Was Jay offered a lift home? Ayub stated that he did indeed propose to drive Jay home on the morning before he went missing. He explained: "Yeah I offered him a lift back, but obviously when I wake up, cos you've got to remember we came back at 6.30, 6.40 in the morning like. And I only slept for an hour before I had to move my car."
He commented: "I've got videos on my phone where me and him are videoing Rocky in the car where Rocky's sleeping on the front. We're just laughing at him, you know what I'm saying. He was calm, it was a vibe like, we were just bossing jokes, all of this scared and all of that, is like, what you on about scared? ".
