As the desperate search continues, the family of Jay Slater have spoken of their fears over what caused the 19-year-old to go missing - raising concerns he may have been 'afraid of someone or something'.
"She's never been found and there's no proof of whatever has happened to her. It's so treacherous down there. Look at the state of me. I'm not a climber, I'm not a hiker. Qassim also remarked: "The only comment I have to make is that Jay came to the house alive, and he left the house alive."
