Family: Greek authorities have ignored UK evidence

Matthew Cryer's family have spoken of their pain at Greek authorities' refusal to pursue a case against the four men who may have killed him.

Joanne Froud, Matthew's mother, spoke to ITV News at her home in Killamarsh, Derbyshire.

The family believe that the 17-year-old was attacked and killed outside a club in Zante in 2008.

A coroner here in the UK said Matthew suffered 20 injuries and that he had been unlawfully killed.
