Thai police question brothers over beach murders

The situation of the two Britons killed

Two British brothers are being questioned over the murders of two backpackers on a beach in Thailand as tests revealed more about how the victims died. Chris Ware and his brother James, from Jersey, have been asked to stay in Thailand as experts wait for the results of DNA tests on Thursday.
The brothers were questioned as police continued to hold six Burmese suspects in connection with the deaths. Thai Police Colonel Kissana said there was "strong evidence" possibly linking the Burmese to the murders, including blood stains on clothes.Pornchai Sutheerakune, head of the Thai Institute of Forensic Medicine, said Mr Miller also had wounds on his hand, indicating a struggle had taken place.
Sky's Jonathan Samuels, on Koh Tao, where the murders happened, said Chris Ware has been spoken to by police after he booked into a hotel at Bangkok airport. It is the second time he has been questioned. He was initially quizzed in the hours after the murders by officers concerned about an injury to his arm.
