EXCLUSIVE: Missing rugby and X Factor star Levi Davis may have been snatched off the streets of Barcelona and kidnapped by British gangsters, family fears
The 24-year-old's mother said a private detective uncovered that the X Factor star may have been kidnapped by criminals from London in dispute over money
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, distraught Julie said the investigator had received an anonymous tip several days ago to say that her son had got into a dispute with criminals two years ago while he was playing rugby for Ealing Trailfinders in 2020.
'We desperately need to know more because this could change the whole nature of the investigation,' she said. 'The anonymous tip was given to private investigators who are helping police look for Levi.
'The person was very cagey and revealed very little details other than to say that 'persons in the UK are involved in Levi's disappearance' and that it stems from a falling out he apparently had with a gang in London when he played rugby there.
'I do know of some difficulties he had with some people who showed up to his flat in Ealing but don't know what the disagreement was about or how serious it was.
Gavin Burrow, the private detector, added: 'We've received several anonymous pieces of information that point to the fact that Levi's disappearance is not voluntary.
'There are definitely people in both London and Barcelona who know what's happened to him and we are following the leads we have been given.'

Updates today, wow, maybe the Instagram video he uploaded about people after him was true and not a mental health episode?
