A desperate search is underway in Portugal's Algarve region after British holidaymaker Greg Monks, 38, vanished without a trace during a stag party — reviving unsettling memories of another high-profile British disappearance in the same region nearly two decades ago.
Greg, from Glasgow, had travelled to the seaside resort of Albufeira on Tuesday, 27 May, with friends for what was meant to be a celebratory five-day getaway. But within hours of arriving, he disappeared in circumstances that his family and friends describe as 'completely out of character.'
