Underwater search expert Peter Faulding has strongly responded to people online who have accused him of having ulterior motives for helping to search for missing Nicola Bulley. The diving expert, who was not being paid for his services, said his team do not deserve some of the "trash" they have been accused of.
He was speaking after calling off their search on Wednesday night after finding no clues in the search for the mum-of-two who has been missing for nearly two weeks.
Mr Faulding, who has 25 years experience in helping police searches and who helped in the case of murdered Welsh schoolgirl April Jones, answered critics after updating Nicola's partner Paul Ansell on the search. Live updates on the search can be found here.
