Peter Faulding said if Nicola is not found today during searches of the River Wyre it may point to a 'third-party' being involved
A diving expert searching for missing Lancashire mum Nicola Bulley claims that the mobile phone found on a bench near the river could have been left as a "decoy".
Speaking on BBC Breakfast, he said: "The initial searches yesterday were downstream in the tidal section of the river, not the key area where Nicola originally went missing. Today we are focussing on the area upstream which is non-tidal and going about a mile upstream. He added: "We are going to go back over the area just in case. We don't know for certain that Nicola is in the river but if she went further enough she could drift down by now.
"I've had this before where a stiletto shoe was found by the river but she was eventually found in a haystack miles away. So it could have been placed as a decoy. There's not enough CCTV to coverage particular areas here. The police are working hard in the background looking at everything.He continued: "That could be a decoy. We don't know. That river has already been searched.
Peter also appeared on Good Morning Britain this morning to discuss today's plans as the search for missing Nicola Bulley continues. He was asked by Ben Shephard: "So what will your equipment allow you to see potentially that they could have missed?"
