Family's 'unbearable pain' after Leeds man, 22, killed on holiday and how they are 'keeping his legacy alive'

"Our pain has been unbearable", says the mum of a 22-year-old Leeds student who was stabbed to death on a holiday in Amsterdam.

The family of Danny Castledine are determined to tackle knife crime after he was stabbed repeatedly in his neck on June 1, and sadly died. A 22-year-old Belgian man was arrested the same day on suspicion of manslaughter.

Danny's sister Chloe said her brother's "ultimate dream" was to live abroad as he loved to travel. The events management student at Leeds Beckett University had travelled to over 23 countries before age 22, and Amsterdam was just one of many places on his bucket list. "Sadly this was cut short by an unneccary, senseless act", Chloe said.
