Due to this sites copyright rules I have modified this news item but the essence of the contents has not changed:

The family of the British man and Filipina woman who were shot dead in Fil need help in raising thousands of pounds to bring the man's body home.

Relatives of the man, originally from Lincoln, said they cannot afford the cost of repatriation.

They have set up a Facebook campaign called "Bring our dad home" appealing for donations.

Incidentally, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office have confirmed their deaths and said consular assistance was being provided to the family.

Becky, daughter 21, said family have still been left "crying out for help" after trying "every official avenue".

"Not only has he been murdered, but his apartment has been ransacked and everything stolen," she said.

"This means not possible to have his personal belongings for memories."

They are hoping to raise £8,000 to repatriate his body so that they can give him the funeral he deserves and say their goodbyes.
