Kirsty Maxwell, from Livingston, West Lothian, had drunk alcohol at a party but no illegal substances were found in her body. A criminal court investigating her death on 29 April heard that her blood alcohol concentration of 2.79 grams was more than five times over the Spanish and Scottish drink-drive limit.

Four British men – Ricky Gammon, 31, Anthony Hole-house, 34, Callum Northridge, 27, and Daniel Bailey, 32 – are under formal investigation. Joseph Graham, 32, was told he could return home but would remain under investigation.
