0:00:11 > 0:00:12My deepest darkest fears and nightmares actually

0:00:12 > 0:00:18came into reality here.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21A young woman on a honeymoon was brutally murdered.

0:00:21 > 0:00:27Surely, you have to feel something about that!

0:00:36 > 0:00:39She had so much life to live.

0:00:39 > 0:00:44So much love to give.

0:00:44 > 0:00:48I wish it had never happened, but it did happen, we do not want

0:00:48 > 0:00:51that to be a blot on the reputation of the country.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Those who have taken the life of this young woman will have

0:00:59 > 0:01:09somehow to face justice.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15It does surprise me that comes back, it does something in people's

0:01:15 > 0:01:18hearts, does something to us on the island.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22But why wait for six years?

0:01:22 > 0:01:26Why?

0:01:26 > 0:01:29I cannot get away from the tragedy and the trauma.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32I am always attached to Mauritius.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37And it hurts.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54This CCTV footage shows John McAreavy only minutes

0:01:54 > 0:02:03before his world fell apart.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06He was looking for his new bride, Michaela.

0:02:06 > 0:02:16He needed a spare key to get into their room.

0:02:17 > 0:02:22They had chosen Mauritius as their dream honeymoon destination.

0:02:22 > 0:02:27But it became the scene of sudden tragedy.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29The daughter of the Tyrone Gaelic football manager, Mickey Harte,

0:02:29 > 0:02:35has been found dead on honeymoon in Mauritius.

0:02:35 > 0:02:36She was a beautiful girl.

0:02:36 > 0:02:44Our hearts are broken.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48It happened here, at the Legends Hotel,

0:02:48 > 0:02:5812 days after their wedding.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02My deepest darkest fears and nightmares actually

0:03:02 > 0:03:09came into reality here.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11At the time, the police said that they believe that thieves

0:03:11 > 0:03:13broke into the room, Michaela disturbed them

0:03:13 > 0:03:20and they killed her.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26She was the only daughter of Tyrone Gaelic football

0:03:26 > 0:03:30manager Mickey Harte.

0:03:30 > 0:03:36She taught Irish and RE at St Patrick's Academy in Dungannon.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40Two hotel workers were charged with her murder.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Michaela's husband John, her brother Mark and John's sister,

0:03:44 > 0:03:53Claire, were in Mauritius for the trial, back in 2012.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Jostled on his way into court on the first day.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59As Michaela McAreavey's widower made his way...

0:03:59 > 0:04:03This is a very distressing time for both of our families.

0:04:03 > 0:04:08It was almost entertainment value in Mauritius.

0:04:08 > 0:04:14And it was this kind of whodunnit type thing.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16After a trial lasting eight weeks, Sandip Mooneea

0:04:16 > 0:04:26and Avinash Treebhoowoon were acquitted of murder.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29After the two hotel workers were acquitted in 2012,

0:04:29 > 0:04:31a new police investigation was launched here at headquarters

0:04:31 > 0:04:37for the Mauritian police in the capital, Port Louis.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39They worked for the next four years and they did

0:04:39 > 0:04:42uncover some new evidence, but not enough.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45The McAreavey family were informed that the investigation had in effect

0:04:45 > 0:04:49come to a standstill.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54They had a big decision to make, give up or do something.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57What they decided to do was come to Mauritius themselves.

0:05:09 > 0:05:16A lot of people will know now that I am married again, to Tara.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20And I suppose, I suspect, that some people would think, OK,

0:05:20 > 0:05:26you know, he has experienced great tragedy, he is married again

0:05:26 > 0:05:32now, you move forward with happy life, you know.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36It is not like that.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Yes, I am very happy now.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Tara is just such a wonderful person and amazes me, really, because,

0:05:42 > 0:05:47she supports me so much in this.

0:05:47 > 0:05:52Anyone that loves you and loves you the right way will know that,

0:05:52 > 0:06:00they will support you in anything that is important in your life.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07And it was important to John McAreavey to make this journey.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11He returned to Mauritius.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Along with his sister Clare who is a lawyer and Mark Harte,

0:06:14 > 0:06:24Michaela's eldest brother.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27It is not easy.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Even though we have not been here for nearly five years,

0:06:30 > 0:06:35mentally, I have still very much been here.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38I cannot get away from the experience, the tragedy

0:06:38 > 0:06:44and dealing with the trauma.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50So, I am always attached to Mauritius and it hurts.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53I just hope that people will actually look at us now

0:06:53 > 0:07:03and realise, you know, these people have not gone away.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14There is a rawness, there is a grief that is still very

0:07:14 > 0:07:17prevalent in all of us.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19I have been in Mauritius three times now and each

0:07:19 > 0:07:21of the times I had a job to do.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25The first time was really about getting Michaela and John home.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27The second time was the attempt to get justice for Michaela's

0:07:27 > 0:07:30murder and the third time was because we felt we left that

0:07:30 > 0:07:33behind us a second time.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Mauritius, unfortunately is not a place that holds

0:07:35 > 0:07:39for us happy memories or any positive associations.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43It has been difficult.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45I think we are arriving here with a very strong sense

0:07:45 > 0:07:49of purpose and resolve and we are very focused

0:07:49 > 0:07:54on what it is we want to achieve and essentially, that is justice

0:07:54 > 0:07:57for Michaela and we feel there is so much more to do,

0:07:57 > 0:08:00so much more that can be done and we are really here

0:08:00 > 0:08:02to bring that about.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Ultimately, what we want, we cannot have, we cannot

0:08:04 > 0:08:07bring Michaela back, but we can get the next best thing

0:08:07 > 0:08:14and in our eyes, that is justice.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25In the six years since Michaela McAreavey was killed here,

0:08:25 > 0:08:27the Harte and McAreavey families have spoken very little

0:08:27 > 0:08:32about it, they have tried to deal with it privately.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34Now, they have changed tack.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Coming here to Mauritius more than 6000 miles away

0:08:36 > 0:08:40is a very public gesture.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43In spite of their private nature, they are now trying

0:08:43 > 0:08:45to grab attention here.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Mauritius is a holiday island.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50Heavily reliant on the tourist industry.

0:08:50 > 0:08:57So what impact did the murder of Michaela McAreavey have here?

0:08:58 > 0:09:01I wish it had never happened, but it did happen and there

0:09:01 > 0:09:03was a police enquiry, but it did create some problem

0:09:03 > 0:09:06for us in terms of perception of Mauritius as a destination

0:09:06 > 0:09:14for safety and for the security of tourists.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16But it was an isolated case.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19It was not something generalised.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Do you think the killers of Michaela McAreavey

0:09:21 > 0:09:24will ever be caught?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26We have since passed legislation to ensure,

0:09:26 > 0:09:29that should there be any new evidence, any fresh evidence,

0:09:29 > 0:09:32it will be possible for a new trial to take place and I wish them

0:09:32 > 0:09:36all the best, if they can come up with any kind of new evidence,

0:09:36 > 0:09:38we as a government, we will take this very seriously,

0:09:38 > 0:09:41because we do not want that to be a blot on the reputation

0:09:41 > 0:09:50of the country.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55The verdict itself, I have to say, was a disappointment to us,

0:09:55 > 0:09:57because we felt that we had sufficient evidence which would

0:09:57 > 0:10:07satisfy reasonable prospects of securing conviction.

0:10:10 > 0:10:16But then we accept the decision of the jury.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19This is part of our criminal justice system, but we have not given up,

0:10:19 > 0:10:23because we want to find out who the culprits are.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Those who have taken the life of this young woman will have

0:10:26 > 0:10:28somehow to face justice.

0:10:45 > 0:10:46Before beginning five days of meetings with the police,

0:10:46 > 0:10:49politicians and the press, there were was somewhere John,

0:10:49 > 0:10:53Claire and Mark wanted to go first.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54Long time, no see.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57How are you?

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Hard memories, yes.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Nice to see you again, Father.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Nice to see you again.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Claire, we meet again, after so long.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Mark, how are you?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12John.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13How are you?

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Are you keeping well?

0:11:15 > 0:11:18You have a lot of memories in the house here, no?

0:11:18 > 0:11:19Yeah, indeed.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Hidden deep in the Mauritian countryside, this was where John,

0:11:21 > 0:11:28Claire and Mark stayed during the trial.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31From you?

0:11:31 > 0:11:34More than 30 miles from the noise and bustle of Port Louis,

0:11:34 > 0:11:43it's a training college for catholic priests.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47We were able to make some calls from that room, yes.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Your office is there, and is that far room

0:11:49 > 0:11:52still the living room?

0:11:52 > 0:11:59Whatever went on during the day, during the trial, that's

0:11:59 > 0:12:02where we kind of I suppose let our guard down as

0:12:02 > 0:12:05a family and we were able to express our emotions.

0:12:05 > 0:12:15At the time, we were very isolated.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Whilst there's lovely views here, you did feel very trapped in a way.

0:12:34 > 0:12:35Oh, my goodness.

0:12:35 > 0:12:35You have upgraded the TV, Father!

0:12:35 > 0:12:35And the mosquitoes.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38You tried so many things for us, spray...

0:12:38 > 0:12:41We came here because of our main concern before coming out was just

0:12:41 > 0:12:44come somewhere where we had privacy, somewhere where we could sort of be

0:12:44 > 0:12:48together in our own thoughts without any intrusion.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53This was where we had our darkest thoughts, this was where we flipped

0:12:53 > 0:12:55the gate really with a padlock at 5:30pm after a long

0:12:55 > 0:12:56day of legal battles.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59This is where we analysed what had been discussed.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03This is where we prepared for what was coming the next day.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05I think it served its purpose, but it's definitely

0:13:05 > 0:13:09challenging being back here.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11For me this has been very difficult today.

0:13:11 > 0:13:21Mauritius has changed since they were last here.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28It now has a new government and one of the high-profile figures

0:13:28 > 0:13:33during the murder trial is now a member of Parliament.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36Back in 2012, Ravi Rutnah was a defence lawyer for one

0:13:36 > 0:13:42of the hotel workers accused of murder, Avinash Treebhoowoon.

0:13:42 > 0:13:49I hope one day this case can be closed.

0:13:49 > 0:13:56I really hope that police will find the real killer.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00What do you think about John McAreavey coming here to the island?

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Why wait for six years?

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Why?

0:14:06 > 0:14:10He says he was giving the police a chance to do the job.

0:14:10 > 0:14:16Six years?

0:14:16 > 0:14:19Who is he to give the Mauritian police a chance?

0:14:19 > 0:14:20Who is he?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22You know, I have been given to understand that John McAreavey

0:14:22 > 0:14:26has attempted to meet the Prime Minister of Mauritius.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28I anticipate that the Prime Minister is not meeting him,

0:14:28 > 0:14:38and should not meet him.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42Because...

0:14:42 > 0:14:43Why on earth?

0:14:43 > 0:14:49Why?

0:14:49 > 0:14:52You met on the last occasion, you met the Prime Minister of this

0:14:52 > 0:14:54country, you met the Commissioner of police in this country,

0:14:54 > 0:14:56you met a number of officers.

0:14:56 > 0:15:03You were treated like the blue-eyed boy of Mauritius.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05But Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth ignored the advice.

0:15:05 > 0:15:10He did meet John.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13We will be back in Mauritius very regularly from this point.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15If we have to be back next week, we will be back.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19If we have to be back next month, next year, we will be here as long

0:15:19 > 0:15:25as it takes to ensure this case is resolved.

0:15:25 > 0:15:31We need people's support and the people of Mauritius

0:15:31 > 0:15:32want this resolved.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35They don't want to see cameras following people about in Mauritius,

0:15:35 > 0:15:37tarnishing this good country, so we will be back

0:15:37 > 0:15:38as long as it takes.

0:15:38 > 0:15:48If I'm still standing here in 20 years, so be it.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51The lawyer is equally determined to get justice.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Our Mauritian police, they are very good normally.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56I say normally because in more than 90% of murder cases,

0:15:56 > 0:15:59they are resolved, and it is very sad our police cannot solve

0:15:59 > 0:16:02this high-profile case, and it is a great disappointment not

0:16:02 > 0:16:11only for the police but also for the country.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14So, why is this murder still unsolved?

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Although he wasn't involved in the case, this forensics

0:16:16 > 0:16:25expert has his own theory.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28Like everybody else in this country, I woke up one morning to hear

0:16:28 > 0:16:38that she had been killed and I remember my first reaction

0:16:38 > 0:16:40was, I just hope the police, forensic guys and the doctors

0:16:40 > 0:16:42do not get scared.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45One of the great tragedies in this country, when something happens

0:16:45 > 0:16:46on hotel premises...

0:16:46 > 0:16:47Police does not have a free hand.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Management is after the police to hurry up and hurry up,

0:16:50 > 0:16:52and even botch up the case because the other residents

0:16:52 > 0:17:02of the hotel are being disturbed.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04We asked the police about how they handle such investigations,

0:17:04 > 0:17:14but they said they didn't want to comment.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21We showed the interview to the Mauritian tourism minister

0:17:21 > 0:17:22to see what he thought.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24One of the great tragedies in this country, when something

0:17:24 > 0:17:27happens on hotel premises, police does not have a free hand.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Management is after the police to hurry up and hurry up...

0:17:29 > 0:17:34What do you think of that?

0:17:34 > 0:17:36I do not share that view.

0:17:36 > 0:17:44The system we have in Mauritius is that whenever something big

0:17:44 > 0:17:47like this happens in a hotel, there is a duty on the part

0:17:47 > 0:17:50of the management of the hotel to call the police,

0:17:50 > 0:17:53and the police take over.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56And the police do whatever they have to do for the investigation.

0:17:56 > 0:18:02It takes the time that it takes, but I do not think there is any fear

0:18:02 > 0:18:05on the part of the police whenever they have to go to any hotel.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07I do not share that view at all.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11The Legends hotel was renamed Lux after the murder.

0:18:11 > 0:18:18We went there to try and get an interview.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20While we were filming, the outside of the hotel

0:18:20 > 0:18:23from beyond the perimeter, a manager came out and told

0:18:23 > 0:18:26us to stop filming.

0:18:26 > 0:18:27In fact he told us twice.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30He said no one was available for an interview at the moment

0:18:30 > 0:18:35but he asked us to put in a written request for an interview and I'm

0:18:35 > 0:18:36going to do that now.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37Could you give that to the manager, please?

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Thank you very much indeed.

0:18:38 > 0:18:44We got an e-mail confirming they didn't want to do an interview.

0:18:44 > 0:18:49We later asked in person, but again we were turned down.

0:18:49 > 0:18:59John's return was the focus of intense media interest.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Now, he was about to face the island's press.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07We are going to put a reward forward for information and we are hoping

0:19:07 > 0:19:11maybe someone will be able to come forward and maybe give us a little

0:19:11 > 0:19:13bit more information, maybe something that can lead

0:19:13 > 0:19:18to evidence to bring us back on the road to justice.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20I'm enthused today since we have been over.

0:19:20 > 0:19:24The meetings have been good and I'm getting to understand

0:19:24 > 0:19:33what people have been doing, but ultimately this is what we came

0:19:33 > 0:19:42for, and that is the direct appeal to Mauritian public so it's very

0:19:45 > 0:19:48important we communicate our messages well today

0:19:48 > 0:19:50because we are very reliant on the people of Mauritius.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52So hopefully we do that, and hopefully the appeal can

0:19:52 > 0:19:53get us what we need.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Did you get a good sleep?

0:19:55 > 0:19:56I did get a good sleep.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59I did get a good sleep after three hours the previous night.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01I'm ready to go, steely determination.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08That's me.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20They will probably be surprised to see him because we gathered

0:20:20 > 0:20:24that he has started a new life, got a new wife, so that he

0:20:24 > 0:20:33would move on and forget about this tragedy.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36And to see that his quest for the truth is still there,

0:20:36 > 0:20:41and I think people will be very supportive of that.

0:20:41 > 0:20:51It does surprise me that he comes back after so many years

0:20:51 > 0:20:55to still find who killed his first wife, so you kind of, yes,

0:20:55 > 0:20:58it does something in people's hearts, you know.

0:20:58 > 0:21:03It does something to us on the island.

0:21:15 > 0:21:33This is about Michaela.

0:21:33 > 0:21:33She had so much life to live, so much love to give.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40The pain of losing such a loved person is something

0:21:40 > 0:21:44which we as families will have to bear for the rest of our days.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46All of our hopes, dreams and ambitions taken away in one

0:21:46 > 0:21:50brutal and senseless act.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52The reality is that there are killers walking around

0:21:52 > 0:21:55in your communities, in your villages and in your towns.

0:21:55 > 0:21:56Killers of a young woman.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57Are your families safe?

0:21:57 > 0:22:07This could be your wife, your daughter, your sister.

0:22:07 > 0:22:07As a symbol of our determination, we are offering a reward

0:22:14 > 0:22:16As a symbol of our determination, we are offering a reward

0:22:16 > 0:22:22of 2 million rupees.

0:22:22 > 0:22:23That's around approximately 50,000 euros.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Please be brave, please come forward with the truth,

0:22:26 > 0:22:28no matter how small or how irrelevant you think it is,

0:22:28 > 0:22:31it will be of help.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Justice is the number one priority here and we will always be

0:22:34 > 0:22:36here to ensure is delivered.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41It is not very common in Mauritius to have this kind of offer

0:22:41 > 0:22:45or reward for evidence.

0:22:45 > 0:22:55I...I'm not very sure it is going to work.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01If I come forward as a witness after having been offered a reward,

0:23:01 > 0:23:04is that going to affect the quality of the evidence that I give?

0:23:04 > 0:23:07I'm just afraid that if somebody comes forward, the defence lawyers

0:23:07 > 0:23:14will try to damage that witness, so that is a risk.

0:23:14 > 0:23:22After all the media attention, the head of the Mauritian

0:23:22 > 0:23:28police force invited John, Claire and Mark for

0:23:28 > 0:23:38a private meeting.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41Mr McAreavey and his relatives have just met the commissioner of police

0:23:41 > 0:23:48and they have been reassured that there is an inquiry still going

0:23:48 > 0:23:50on, and we are going to exchange information and hopefully

0:23:50 > 0:24:00we will get something in the future.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04After five days in Mauritius, it was time to leave

0:24:04 > 0:24:11the island and go home.

0:24:11 > 0:24:16Then there was a last-minute change of plan.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19They decided to go to the one place they had always insisted

0:24:19 > 0:24:25they didn't want to go.

0:24:25 > 0:24:33The hotel where Michaela was murdered.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59I'm John's sister, Claire.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01We spoke on the telephone, I've never been here before.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04They wanted to make sure the appeal for new information was heard,

0:25:04 > 0:25:05face-to-face in the hotel.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07It was supposed to be a brief meeting, but it

0:25:07 > 0:25:14lasted well over an hour.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17I hadn't been to the hotel before.

0:25:17 > 0:25:27That was hard.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30You know, I'd seen lots of pictures of the hotel, I had read

0:25:30 > 0:25:32lots of evidence about the hotel.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33Actually being there was...

0:25:33 > 0:25:39that was hard.

0:25:39 > 0:25:45You want to protect your family members, and it's a different thing

0:25:45 > 0:25:47altogether when you have to walk into the ground where

0:25:47 > 0:25:57Michaela was murdered.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06This is where Michaela was killed and we believe there's still people

0:26:06 > 0:26:15employed at the hotel that have information.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23They are going to be convening the staff together in the next

0:26:23 > 0:26:26couple of days and appealing to them that if they have in the information

0:26:26 > 0:26:31about what happened, that they come forward.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33I think every other meeting which we've attended

0:26:33 > 0:26:36since we've been over here, it is more effective when you can be

0:26:36 > 0:26:37face-to-face with people.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39We have been through worse.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42When you are at rock bottom, there's only one way

0:26:42 > 0:26:48you can look so, as I say, this comes down to Michaela.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50This isn't about me, Mark or Claire, our families.

0:26:50 > 0:26:57This is about getting justice for Michaela.

0:27:03 > 0:27:07It was always going to be an emotionally draining five

0:27:07 > 0:27:15days for the families, and so it proved, but they gained

0:27:15 > 0:27:18greater access to the Mauritian authorities than they expected,

0:27:18 > 0:27:20and they managed to get their message out to the local media

0:27:20 > 0:27:21right around the island.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23They did everything they could do.

0:27:23 > 0:27:29For them now, it's just a waiting game.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32A waiting game for both the Hart and McAreavey families to find out

0:27:32 > 0:27:39whether this return to Mauritius will make any difference.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42The journey out here, the time we have spent has had a purpose.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44I think we have ruffled enough feathers to let

0:27:44 > 0:27:51people know we are serious about what we are about.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54We have no intention of going away.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56We need justice for our families, we need justice for Michaela.

0:27:56 > 0:28:05Not having justice, not being able to know the people that killed

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Michaela have been held accountable is a very hard thing to bear.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10We will come back, we will be back.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12You know, we have lived with this every single day

0:28:12 > 0:28:13since Michaela died.

0:28:13 > 0:28:20I guess if someone else was in my position, I can only

0:28:20 > 0:28:23imagine they would try to achieve what I try to achieve and what our

0:28:23 > 0:28:26families try to achieve.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28And yes, it is very difficult but ultimately I think

0:28:28 > 0:28:31I owe it to Michaela.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10Unless you are ready,

0:29:10 > 0:29:12100% prepared,

0:29:12 > 0:29:14it is a brutal business.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16The champion of the world!

0:29:16 > 0:29:18We're winners. We'll work very hard together.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21I said to Christine, I might get hit a bit in this fight.
