A theme park where an 11-year-old girl died in a fall from a water ride will remain closed for a second day.
Evha Jannath fell from a boat on the Splash Canyon rapids attraction during a school trip to Drayton Manor Theme Park in Staffordshire on Tuesday.
Her family, from Leicester, want the ride to stay shut throughout the investigations and have asked for the immediate release of her body.
They said she was "a beautiful little girl who was full of love".
In a statement, thanking emergency services, the park said Tuesday's events had "shaken the whole Drayton Manor family, from the board, through to staff and visitors.
"The park will be closed on Thursday to allow the Health and Safety Executive to complete their work.
"Our thoughts are with the family and all those who have been affected by Tuesday's incident," it said.
