File photo dated 9/10/2019 of Levi Davis. The mother of the missing ex-rugby player and Celebrity X Factor star has called on police to review new evidence in the case, saying investigators "pulled out the stops" searching for Jay Slater and Madeleine McCann and need to do the same for her son. The 26-year-old former Bath player was last seen at The Old Irish Pub in Barcelona two years ago, on October 29 2022, and the official investigation into his disappearance by the city's police force, the Mossos d'Esquadra, became inactive in October the following year.
