SPAIN - Peter Wilson, 32, Irish tourist, Malibu Park Hotel, Tenerife, 23 Mar 2019

[Edinlass]

I think the family altered ‘gardia’ when the friend returned home but the police in Spain don’t open investigations until a week later. I imagine the friend situation to be pretty clear cut they’ve no doubt had an argument and the mate returned home - this has happened to so many ppl I know. The hotel weren’t willing to check his room until his check out date either which is crazy imo - pretty sure the cleaners go in to clean the room throughout the week?

I just read his mum's FB post - heartbreaking. 16k shares though so hopefully something will come of it.

Do you think they suspect he has met somebody and maybe might want to remain there for reasons only he would know (her words) or they've just thrown it out there as a desperate option?

I would very much like to know what the friend has said about all this.

I want to know what the friend said as well. There is also a pattern of missing men on the island Police search for Scot missing in Tenerife

Can I say after having just got back to the UK from Tenerife and having had several dealings with the Police that they are at best useless and at worst completely corrupt.

Awful place.

Thanks Cags, a towed car and lost passport abroad are not fun!! Cost us an arm and a leg and missed work but at least we're home and safe finally (in the cold).

for some reason I got an alert notification on this thread which I haven't even posted on
weird

 

[Edinlass]

Can’t believe he is still missing. The police in Tenerife are very heavy handed - I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

Keep the Tenerife community in your thoughts today. A team of trained and skilled volunteers are heading out on a search on behalf of the family today, we are forever grateful to them all.

It is with heavy heart that we have to post that the search today was not successful.

The most amazing team of volunteers went out this morning, only 4 days before Christmas, to search for Peter. The team comprised of members of the Adeje Bomberos (firefighters) and their drones, the GEBE (a team of highly skilled and trained searchers), SOS Desaparecidos (missing persons organisation), Pilar whose husband, Carmelo, is also missing and our dear friend Katrina.

Their willingness to help us in our search for Peter is appreciated more than we can ever put into words. These people are true heroes. We would like to thank each of them for all that they do to support us.

We will keep searching for Peter Wilson, his family need answers.

We are still looking for Peter Wilson, #missing in #adeje #tenerife #canaryislands on March 24, 2019.

Thank you for the effort and teamwork that the members of gebe canarias and firefighters of adeje have made. Without you it would not be possible to continue adding so much #solidarity

Thank you for giving us that land help, arrival from Gran Canaria, and air to continue discarding search areas.

We remember that Carmelo Antonio Diaz Pezcoso is also missing in the same area since November 9, 2016. Thank you pilar doniz for bringing your grain of sand to this difficult situation for which you are going too. Cheer up and a lot of strength for both families

This has been confirmed. RIP Peter

So sad, but a small relief for the family. RIP. Are there any details of where he was found? Does it looks like an accident or foul play? The details have always been very sketchy, the friend he went with not coming forward publicly to help with finding him. Was the friend a male or female. Something odd about the situation.
