A former British Army officer has suggested that Jay Slater's mobile 'may have been thrown' before his disappearance.The 19-year-old from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, vanished on the Spanish island of Tenerife on June 17.

He was last seen leaving an Airbnb accommodation situated in the north of Tenerife, near the village of Masca, at around 8am on the day he went missing.The final signal from his phone was detected in the Parque Rural de Teno nature reserve, an area which became the focal point for the Spanish police's search efforts until they concluded their formal operations on Sunday.

Friends and family members have not given up and continue to search for him. Journalist Nick Pisa, who has been following Jay's disappearance closely and speaking with Spanish authorities as well as investigators on site, has highlighted a developing theory about why the teen's phone signal stopped in such an inaccessible location.

After discussing the matter with a veteran ex-British Army officer, Pisa now suspects Jay's phone may have been thrown away, reports Wales Online.
