It comes as an inquest into Jay Slater’s death on the Island began on Thursday.
During the testimony, the teenager’s final communications before his disappearance in Tenerife last year emerged.
The 19-year-old sent multiple Snapchat messages to friend Bradley Geoghegan whilst staying with Ayoub Qassim and Stephen Roccus in the early hours of June 17 last year.
The messages, which began around 5.30am, included an image of a bed prepared for him at the men’s accommodation.
Geoghegan told the inquest that Slater appeared neither distressed nor anxious in these communications.
Slater’s final video message showed him walking along a main road, with Geoghegan noting his friend appeared “in a better way” than during their previous encounter.
The teenager had been removed from Papagayo nightclub at approximately 10pm on June 16 for excessive alcohol consumption, according to Geoghegan’s testimony, leading to the location of Slater remaining unknown.
His body was discovered on July 15 in a remote mountainous area.
