The 18-year-old was last seen in Byron Bay at 11pm on May 31 as he left the Cheeky Monkeys bar on Jonson Street.
In a video supplied by police, his father, Laurent Hayez, said they wanted to find out for sure if he was with somebody that night. "A key question we are seeking to address, is whether he was with someone on the night of May 31, 2019, which we strongly believe to be the case," he said. "Any details big or small could help transform the investigation and provide our family and the investigation with desperately needed answers," she said."Not having answers means our family is unable to grieve, as we don't have a conclusion."Deputy Premier and Minister for Police Paul Toole said he is hopeful the reward will encourage anyone who has any information to come forward.
