Australian police have announced that they will conduct a DNA test on a few hairs that presumably belong to Theo Hayez, the 18-year-old from Brussels who disappeared in Australia last year.
Hayez went missing in Byron Bay in Australia, in May 2019. Over the summer, several volunteers in Australia had found a cap that probably belonged to him on which some hairs were found.
