Ayub told Mark how after meeting Jay at Papagayo nightclub in Playa de las Americas, they headed back to the Masca holiday home where Jay was offered a sofa to crash on. Instead of staying the night, a hungry Jay left to make his way home.
According to Mark, Jay told convicted drug dealer Ayub – aka Johnny Vegas: “I’m hungry. I need to get a scran. And the woman told me I can get a bus every 10 minutes to Los Cristianos.

Mark added: “Ayub says, he says to him, mate, just chill out. I’ll drop you off in town when I wake up properly. He [Jay] went, no, no, no, no. I’m hungry. I need to get a scran. And the woman told me I can get a bus every 10 minutes to Los Cristianos.
“He [Ayub] then says he gets a call from a friend of Jay’s who says that he’s in a ditch somewhere and he’s been cut by a cactus.”
