The mother of murdered Scarlett Keeling has admitted benefit fraud, on the day two men went on trial over her daughter's death in Goa.

Fiona MacKeown, 44, of West Lodge, near Meddon, Devon, pleaded guilty to falsely claiming £19,000 income support between February 2005 and March 2008.

The case was adjourned until a date to be fixed for sentencing at Exeter Crown Court.
