Eight quizzed over Claudia
FOUR detectives have flown home after quizzing eight men in Cyprus about missing chef Claudia Lawrence’s complex love life.
They included ex-pat builder Steve Sammons, 35, who was the last person to send 35-year-old Claudia a text at 9.12pm on the day she disappeared in March.
Speaking for the first time about the text, Mr Sammons confirmed it was about her coming out to visit him. He said: “She just wanted a break.”
Claudia, who police say had liaisons with a number of men, is thought to have also indulged in a series of romances on the five trips she made to Cyprus over two years. Detectives insist Mr Sammons, who denies being her lover, is not a suspect.
