Missing rugby star ‘posted blackmail and death threat video’ before disappearing

Missing rugby star Levi Davis "posted a blackmail and death threat video" just days before disappearing.

Davis, who appeared on the X-Factor in 2019, has been missing since October 29. He was last seen leaving a pub in Barcelona. It has now been revealed that he posted a video on Instagram just days before his disappearance in which he said he was being blackmailed by criminals who had threatened to kill him and his family.

The video was deleted shortly after being posted four days before he went missing but has now been retrieved by a private investigator and released by The Sun.

Davis begins the clip by explaining: " My name is Levi Davis and my life is in danger. I beg that you listen and try to understand what I’m telling you."

He then added details of the blackmail and threats, stating that the blackmail had started after his appearance on the X-Factor in 2019. Davis also said he "went to the police and I asked them if they could help me" because "something was happening to me and wasn’t something good".

The 24-year-old continued: " You may ask ‘why wouldn’t you just stay away from individuals which wish you harm’. And that’s what I tried to do by starting a new life in Australia. But what happened is that I was followed there also."

Prior to disappearing, the former Bath winger went to one of the blackmailers to "conform to their demands". He added: "I was told by them in ways which are not direct but are absolutely true that they were going to attempt – if I said anything out – they were going to attempt to kill me, threaten my family. And they also were trying to frame me and are."

Davis alleged that he believed they had access to medical records as they hadbrought up "things that only I have had conversations with the NHS".

Prior to his last sighting at the bar in Spain, he had been "trying to understand their demands" adding "on the surface I had to look normal, they told me to look normal".

Davis had travelled to Barcelona from Ibiza, with reports speculating that he may have drowned after being hunted by criminals due to a £100,000 debt.

The new footage of Davis was retrieved by private investigator Gavin Burrows, who released the video with the agreement of Davis' friends and family in a bid to get more information.

His Line of Inquiry firm are offering a £10,000 reward to the public for new information that leads to finding Davis.
