Detectives are continuing to appeal for witnesses and are offering a £10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and charge of any person responsible for Danny and Liam's disappearance. Detective Chief Inspector Simon Dunn said: "Although Danny and Liam went missing in Spain, we believe there are people in the UK who may hold vital information about their disappearance.

"We understand there may be some who have felt unable to come forward before now, but it's not too late to do the right thing. Whether it's something you know, or something you may have subsequently heard, we urge you to get in touch and share it with us. We will listen and we will investigate any viable new lines of enquiry.

"You may not appreciate the importance of the information you have, but it could be the piece of the puzzle we need to build the picture of what happened to Danny and Liam. Even the smallest detail could be significant in helping us provide their families with the answers they so desperately need and deserve."
