Ben’s mother, Kerry, says the new evidence suggests a cover-up in the case of her son’s disappearance.

“This confirms everything the police have suspected,” she told the Daily Mirror.

“That proves it to me with doubt they obviously moved him and buried him and for whatever reason, dug him up.

“There’s no other explanation. It’s all been a massive cover-up.”

Ben was staying at his grandparent’s farmhouse in Kos when he disappeared.

Police believed the toddler died as a result of an accident with a digger in 1991 and officially ended their search in October of last year.
