A Dutch couple are among the victims of last week's Zanzibar ferry disaster, it was confirmed at the weekend.

In total, 145 people were rescued when the heavily-laden ferry capsized in heavy seas. A similar number are thought to have died.

Five Dutch holidaymakers were among those pulled out of the sea. They returned to the Netherlands at the weekend.
