Jay Slater UPDATES: Bombshell witness to give evidence at inquest

The inquest into the death of teenager Jay Slater in Tenerife last summer has resumed today with key questions yet to be answered. A number of witnesses who were with Jay on the Spanish island didn't attend the inquest when it started at Preston Coroner's Court in May, but it's now been revealed that the teen's best friend, Lucy Law, will appear via video link.

Relatives and family friends will no doubt be hoping to learn more about what happened to Jay as he travelled from the place where he was last seen and the point at which he was found. Jay, 19, from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, was holidaying in Tenerife and had been to the NRG music festival with friends in Playa de las Americas on June 16 last year. He was reported missing on June 18 last year. The apprentice bricklayer's body was found on July 15 by Spain's Civil Guard.
