ANOTHER seven teenagers were today arrested in connection with the death of Indian sailor Gregory Fernandes.

The seven, all aged between 13 and 17, are from the Fawley and Blackfield areas.

They were detained on suspicion of murder, grievous bodily harm and violent disorder.

A total of ten people have now been arrested in connection with Mr Fernandes' death.

The arrests come after the devastated uncle of Gregory said those who killed the 32-year-old had "shattered all his dreams and have destroyed his family."

He died after being assaulted by up to 20 youths in the Hampshire village of Fawley.

The Reverend Father Diogo Fernandes spoke to the Daily Echo from his home in Florida as he appealed to those living in the community to help police trace the people responsible for attacking his nephew.

And he told how Gregory's death had left his family in the Indian state of Goa without financial security and staring at a bleak future.
