A PICTURE has emerged of the man who booked the Airbnb Jay Slater went to hours before he vanished in Tenerife. Ayub Abdul paid £40 a night to rent the remote holiday let in Rural de Teno park where Jay, 19, spent time with two men before disappearing. Apprentice bricklayer Jay, who had been at a rave all night, went to the Airbnb in the early hours of June 17.
He shared a final Snapchat from the cottage holding a cigarette at 7.30am. Jay then tried to make his way back to his holiday accommodation, but after missing the bus was faced with an 11-hour walk.
At around 8.50am he made a final frantic call to friend Lucy, telling her he was lost in the "middle of nowhere" with no water and had just one per cent battery on his phone. The two men Jay was with in the last hours before he disappeared.
spoke to police on the island before jetting back to the UK. Both men have been described as "irrelevant" to the investigation by Spanish cops. It is understood the pair met Jay, from Lancashire , during the three-day NRG festival in Playa de las Americas.
A picture has now emerged of Mr Abdul, who rented the Airbnb, which The Sun understands is from his Airbnb profile. Mr Abdul booked Casa Abuela Tina in the village of Masca - which is around 19 miles from Playa de las Americas - on June 14 for three nights for £120, reports the Mail . There is no implication of any wrongdoing on Mr Abdul.
Initial reports suggested Jay met the men on the night he vanished, before his close pal Brad Ha.
