The brother of a woman murdered by her own gardener has spoken of his heartbreak after finding out a long-kept family secret.
British Lesley Pearson, 74, was strangled to death by a handyman in a row over wages and buried in a shallow grave in the garden of her luxury remote villa in Algar, Spain.
Martial arts expert Francisco Javier Becerra stuffed a handkerchief inside Lesley’s mouth and brutally murdered her before stealing cash from her wallet and hiding her body.
