QLD:Witness can't back Morcombe POI alibi

A man nominated as an alibi by a person of interest in the DANIEL MORCOMBE case has
told a Queensland court he can't recall being with him on the day the teenager disappeared.

Giving evidence in the Maroochydore Coroners Court today .. the 49-year-old said the
man known as P7 was a regular visitor .. dropping in at least fortnightly to buy drugs.

But he said he couldn't recall P7 visiting on the day 13-year-old DANIEL went missing
while waiting for a bus on the Sunshine Coast.

P7 told the inquest last week he'd gone to the house around the time DANIEL disappeared
.. spending at least 30 minutes buying and smoking cannabis.

The inquest continues.
