Investigator says he KNOWS who is behind the Levi Davis disappearance in Spain

A British private investigator claims to have identified the person responsible for the disappearance of former Bath rugby union player and X Factor star Levi Davis.

Gavin Burrows told MailOnline that investigators have presented a body of evidence to Spanish police which suggests that an as-yet-unidentified man drugged, groomed and manipulated Levi over the course of several months and was therefore after his disappearance in Spain last year.

Initial reports suggested that he may have drowned in the city’s harbor after his passport was found nearby, but Burrows’ team believe it is likely that he is still alive.

They claim to have discovered a digital recording of their prime suspect admitting to posting Levi’s photo on a dating website and accessing his social media accounts just three weeks ago.

Levi was last seen leaving an Irish pub on October 29 after taking a ferry from Ibiza, but disappeared just hours after arriving in Barcelona.

In a video recorded days before his disappearance, Levi alleged that an unidentified man drugged him and forced him to perform sexual acts shortly after his run on X Factor in 2018.

He said that he was being manipulated and blackmailed by this man and several other unidentified people, who, according to Levi, threatened to kill him and members of his family if he did not cooperate with their nefarious plan.

He said: “They told me in a way that is not direct but absolutely true that they were going to try, if I said something, they were going to try to kill me, threaten my family.”

“And they were also trying to frame me.”

His video call for help was mysteriously removed minutes after it was posted on his social media, but Hotline investigators obtained a copy last week.

Burrows claimed he had retrieved the Instagram video, which Levi first posted four days before he went missing, and posted it with the agreement of family and friends to help get information.

Now Burrows believes his team has uncovered the mastermind behind Levi’s harrowing situation.
