Her husband, parents and brother have returned to the resort in the south east of Spain to the search for answers.

They are appealing to find the photographer, who may have information that could help them piece together the events leading up to her death.

A Spanish judge placed the five men under investigation.

Her husband Mr Maxwell said in an interview with STV News: "It is very hard to come back here but we have to for Kirsty.
