Debbie Duncan, who flew to Tenerife the day after her 19-year-old son went missing while on holiday with friends, fears "something untoward" may have happened to him.
The mother of Jay Slater, the British teenager missing in Tenerife, says she spent eight hours in a police station on Friday as police outlined their search plans.
Debbie Duncan told the Guardian she still thinks "something untoward" may have happened to her son.
She flew to the Spanish island on Tuesday, the day after the 19-year-old went missing, to help look for him.
On Saturday, the sixth day of the search, police, rescue dogs and firefighters reconvened at Rural de Teno Park, the last location logged by Mr Slater's phone.
Ms Duncan told the Guardian police have said the "noise" around the case was affecting their investigation, but said she believes they are "stepping up" their search.
It comes after reports somebody logged into Mr Slater's Instagram account who was not him.
Rachel Louise Harg set up a GoFundMe page to go towards search efforts and a Facebook page to help find him, which had raised more than £26,000 of its £30,000 target by Saturday afternoon.
