The body found in the search for Jay Slater is that of the missing teen, a post-mortem has confirmed.
The tragic discovery was made near the village of Masca on Monday morning by the mountain rescue division of the Civil Guard. The Spanish police force said that all evidence pointed towards it being Jay, and that he’d died accidentally after suffering a fall.

A court spokesperson in Tenerife confirmed on Tuesday that fingerprints confirmed the body was missing Jay, from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire. The injuries suggested he had fallen from a cliff, they added.

It also emerged the body was found close to where his phone last pinged on Monday, June 17, alongside his clothes and personal belongings. Jay, 19, vanished while on his first holiday with friends for a three-day music festival, the NRG Tenerife Weekender.

He had been at a rave with friends at Papagayo, a nightclub on the Veronicas strip in Playa de las Americas, on the Sunday night before heading back to an AirBnb in the remote village with two British men he’d met on the trip. Leaving the remote rental, Jay was seen trying to get a bus before attempting the 11-hour journey back on foot, telling a friend his phone was on 1% battery.

The Civil Guard led a two-week intense search of the rugged terrain around where his phone data was last located. Family and friends, including dad Warren Slater and brother Zak, continued their hunt for Jay, an apprentice bricklayer, after officers halted their on-the-ground search.
