It's feared the 28-year-old was sexually assaulted. | :00:21. | :00:24. | |

in a pub at the Albert Dock before going travelling. | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Our Merseyside reporter, Andy Gill, joins us from Liverpool now. | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
Andy, what more do we know tonight about the police investigation? | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
Abbie more details are emerging tonight. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
A local police chief has said that a man named Vikas Bhagat had been | :00:44. | :00:54. | |
arrested and charged in connection with the murder. | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
Her body was found in a remote area near a beach yesterday morning. | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
Police in Goa also say a post mortem has been carried | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
out on Danielle's body, though they've not | :01:03. | :01:03. | |
We also know a little more tonight about Danielle. | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
She was the eldest of five daughters. | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
She travelled in Australia after working here in Liverpool. | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
And returned home to Ireland before travelling again to India. | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
Tonight, her family and friends are grieving on both | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
Friends say Danielle McLaughlin, who was originally from | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
John Moores University have confirmed that she was a student | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
here, though it hasn't said what she studied or when. | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
After university she worked at the Pumphouse Pub | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
A former colleague and friend says staff and customers loved her. | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
Just the most fun girl you could imagine. | :01:39. | :01:40. | |
When you heard, from your personal point of view, what did you think? | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
Well, it actually brought a tear to my eye and I'm not one to do | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
I was sitting on the bus, like, this isn't real. | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
And then I saw the stories and I was like, "Oh, my God, it is." | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
Danielle grew up in County Donegal in Ireland. | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
Community leaders there say the family is overwhelmed by their loss. | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
It's always unnatural for a mother to lose a child even if | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
She was popular, outgoing and lively. | :02:11. | :02:25. | |
She would take part in musicals, she was | :02:26. | :02:27. | |
Recently, Danielle's grandfather died. | :02:28. | :02:39. | |
And, in recent years, her mother lost her husband. | :02:40. | :02:41. | |
In a statement tonight, Danielle's mother said: | :02:42. | :02:53. | |
Police in India say Danielle may have been sexually assaulted | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
A teenager who killed a Merseyside police officer in a stolen car has | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
been told his 20-year prison sentence is "thoroughly deserved." | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Lawyers for Clayton Williams failed to get his jail term reduced | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
He ran over 34-year-old PC Dave Phillips in October 2015 | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
as he was deploying a "stinger" device to stop the car thief. | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
The number of people unemployed in the north-west | :03:21. | :03:21. | |
The figures for November to January show 173,000 | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
people are out of work - that's 4.9% of the workforce. | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
A group of residents, living near Preston New Road in Lancashire, | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
are challenging the government's decision to allow fracking there. | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
They told a judge at the high court in Manchester that proper planning | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
Local people have been overridden and democracy has been overturned | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
by the Secretary of State so we're here to make a statement it's not | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
We are here supporting local democracy and the feelings of people | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
in Lancashire who definitely don't want fracking. | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
The government's lawyers will give evidence tomorrow. | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
A final ruling is expected next month. | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
Thousands of lives could be saved if a Manchester scheme to detect | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
lung cancer was introduced across the country. | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
That's according to NHS researchers who carried out a pilot scheme | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
Recently, I went for a lung check and I've been diagnosed with cancer. | :04:16. | :04:29. | |
Michael found out about his condition thanks to a pilot scheme | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
Instead of waiting for people to go to the doctor's with a problem, | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
the project targeted poorer areas where lifestyle and smoking make | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
lung cancer the most common cause of premature death. | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
They wrote to everyone aged between 55 and 74, | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
Around half then went on to have CT scans. | :04:52. | :04:59. | |
I went for a lung health check, and was given an appointment | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
So I think the timescale is absolutely terrific. | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
Most people who are diagnosed with lung cancer don't find out | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
until stage four of the disease, by which time it's | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
We did about 1,400 scans, and of those, | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
And importantly, 80% of those are early stage. | :05:24. | :05:33. | |
We were diagnosing one cancer for every scanning | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
The team behind the scheme believes it could save many more lives. | :05:36. | :05:45. | |
We did manage to target the poorest, the most deprived sections | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
of the community, which is said to be hardest to reach. | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
I could've gone two or three years and it could have spread everywhere. | :05:54. | :06:05. | |
It's now hoped funding will be approved to extend the scheme | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
to other areas of Greater Manchester and eventually, across the country. | :06:09. | :06:19. | |
The former Manchester United star Gary Neville has been responding | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
to criticism of his plans to build tower blocks up to 31 storeys high | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
He was speaking at an investment fair on the French Riviera, | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
and said he was willing to make changes to the design. | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
The event in Cannes also heard about massive plans to redevelop | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
parts of Merseyside, as Phil McCann now reports. | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
The carpets at this time of year in Cannes are blue not red. | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
It is Europe's biggest investment exhibition. | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
It's been a very busy day for the north-west here, | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
First one today has been in Birkenhead, where a plan's been | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
announced for m hundreds of apartments, a hotel | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
and conference centre at the Woodside Waterfront area. | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
In town, there'd be a new market and a heritage district | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
Wirral Council's here to try and raise a billion pounds for it. | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
There is a buzz about Wirral and Birkenhead. | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
People think that Wirral is going places and the region is going | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
The council hopes that Birkenhead's market can eventually | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
North West councils come to this annual investment show every year to | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
But in Manchester, this famous face is | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
behind one which is causing concerns. | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs want to build two skyscrapers | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
in the centre of Manchester, but they are willing to act on those | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
From our point of view there is no doubt that some of the | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
suggestions that have been made to us during the consultation process | :07:49. | :07:50. | |
and planning process we need to listen to. | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
We need to refine certain aspects of it, change certain | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
We still fundamentally believe in scale and in the | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
buildings being tall in that zone and that's | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
You mentioned Historic England there and they do seem to be | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
objecting to the fundamentals and not just the design. | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
You will be aware they're saying it would damage | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
the city's historic heart, dwarfing and aggressively jarring with nearby | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
I fundamentally disagree with their... | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
I suppose the language that they've used. | :08:26. | :08:26. | |
Elsewhere, in Liverpool, funding has been secured for a ?35 | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
million Cancer Centre in the Paddington | :08:30. | :08:31. | |
the city centre, one of a new wave of facilities providing proton beam | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
At the Cheshire stand in Cannes, plans to redevelop Chester | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
and redevelop land around Crewe when HS2 comes have been outlined. | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
Back in Manchester, some very long-term | :08:44. | :08:44. | |
The City Council's Chief Executive has told an audience that | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
within the next few years, the city region will have to look at | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
installing an underground railway because the trams will be too full. | :08:54. | :09:02. | |
Manchester City have been knocked out of the Champions League, | :09:03. | :09:04. | |
After falling two goals behind, they managed to pull one | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
But it wasn't enough after Monaco scored again. | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
In the end, the match drew 6-6 on aggregate, | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
but the away goals rule means City are eliminated. | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
Liverpool boxer, Tony Bellew may need surgery on his right hand | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
and could be out of action for several months. | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
He broke his hand during his heavyweight win over | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
That's it from me tonight, but here's Eno with the weather. | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
A beautiful day today, but it looks set to change? | :09:36. | :09:52. | |
We saw beautiful blue skies across the region and temperatures as high | :09:53. | :10:02. | |
as 16 degrees in Cheshire. Temperatures are down tomorrow and | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
getting colder as we head towards the end of the week. Tonight is not | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
the king too bad. Dry with fog patches on high ground in Cumbria. | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
Maybe some rain as well here. Temperatures are fairly mild. | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
Tomorrow will be cooler and more cloudy from the word go. The cloud | :10:23. | :10:29. | |
will continue to spill in from across the Irish Sea with showers. | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
Quite breezy in the afternoon. The showers could merge to bring longer | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
spells of rain in the afternoon and disappointing temperatures. Through | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
the evening the rain will push away so maybe some sunshine to end the | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
day. Clear skies tomorrow night so possibly cold with rain pushing in. | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
The rain will stick with us through the recount. -- the weekend. | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
been. The outlook, rain around, if it stays dry I will be surprised. | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
Here is Nick with the national headlines. | :11:05. | :11:09. |
