The body of a 51 year old man who went missing on Saturday has been found in the Las Mesetas area of Cortes de la Frontera, Málaga province.
The man, a native of Ubrique (Cádiz), went out on Saturday with two companions to look for asparagus. The two friends returned alone after they lost sight of their companion and reported his disappearance.
A search operation began on Saturday night and on Sunday morning the body was found. It is thought the man slipped and fell from a height of around twenty metres, hitting his head. An autopsy is being carried out to determine the exact cause of death.
