A reporter in Tenerife has said that there are "two main questions" to be answered after a body was found in the search for missing Jay Slater.
Human remains have been found in the area where the teenager disappeared a month after the search began.
The 19-year-old went missing after he attended a music festival in Tenerife with friends.
He was last heard of when he called his friend to say that he was lost, his phone was on one per cent charge and he was planning an 11-hour trek back to his apartment.

A spokesman for the Civil Guard has now confirmed that "the lifeless body of the young man" was discovered in Rural de Teno National Park.
Speaking to GB News, Tenerife journalist Chris Elkington said: "The first two weeks of the search was well followed by everyone and then they announced it was finishing, which it didn't.

"It continued under a secrecy act and was at road level. So they meticulously covered every area along the trails and routes of the Masca village and the rural park.
"The search then went down into the valleys, into the ravines, up to 600m deep. So although the phone has pinged the location, it doesn't give you the altitude.
"It doesn't tell you that it's 600m below where you're looking for. So the fact that the body has been found for weeks or nearly a month after it went missing in deep undergrowth in one of the deep ravines, isn't really a surprise."
GB News host Eamonn Holmes asked him: "What are the questions that would surprise you and the answers that would surprise you? What are the questions that still need to be asked after all this time?"

He said: "Well, the obvious one is, is why did he go to Masca in the first place? Also, what made his decision to leave so quickly and choose to try and walk home from an area that is just somewhere you don't walk back from?
"It's an area that's 30km up the coast on winding roads from the main tourist areas. Those really the main two questions."
Spanish police said in a statement that he may have died in an accident.
The apprentice bricklayer's phone was last traced to the Masca ravine in a remote, mountainous national park.
