When the reporter addressed the claims of the waitress, the manager added: “No one would be speaking about that.”
Recently, video footage has circulated online that shows a young man at the rave – resembling Jay – and appears to show him in the same attire as the clothes he was last seen wearing, reports Manchester Evening News.
Speaking of one of the last sightings of Jay, the waitress told The Sun: “I remembered Jay, because he was unstable on his feet.
“I gave him some water for free as he didn’t look well. I remembered him, my boyfriend called me in the morning and said he was missing.”
She added: “I recognised his picture straight away. I feel so sad, it feels very close to home as I am his age as well. I feel so much for his family.”
