The heartbroken father of a woman who was found strangled in her home along with her 15-year-old daughter has said she was due to return home to Colombia next week.
Fabian Marimon said daughter Giselle Marimon-Herrera, 37, from Colombia, and granddaughter Allison Marimon-Herrera, 15, were set to arrive to the South American country before their tragic deaths.
Mr Marimon said he fears his daughter, who last spoke to her father last Saturday, was murdered before she could return home for good.
Both mother and daughter, who were found dead at a flat in Newry, Northern Ireland, on Thursday, were strangled in a suspected double murder suicide, with detectives saying there was a 'strong possibility' that Ms Marimon-Herrera was also throttled.

The body of 38-year-old Russell Steele, from Scotland, who was named as Giselle Marimon-Herrera's partner, was also found dead inside the Newry property
The bodies were discovered at about 11am on Thursday after police forced entry into the property.
The body of 38-year-old Russell Steele, from Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland, named as Giselle Marimon-Herrera's partner, was also found hanged inside the flat.
Mr Marimon told Belfast Live: 'The last time we spoke was Saturday, the day before she was killed. She was happy and laughing and everything seemed normal.
'We were expecting her home in the coming days. We are a close family and we missed each other too much.
'When we couldn't get a visa to visit her, that's when she decided she would return to Colombia and live here with us.'

Earlier reports from Spanish media also claimed that Mr Marimon was willing to sell his taxi to travel to Northern Ireland and say his last farewell to his daughter and granddaughter.
Yesterday pictures were revealed of Ms Marimon-Herrera, who is originally from Colombia and moved to Northern Ireland four years ago, and her daughter who were found lying dead in their flat for three days after the suspected 'murder suicide'.
Daughter Allison Marimon-Herrera, who was born in Spain and has lived in Northern Ireland since 2017, was a pupil at Newry High School.

Speaking yesterday Detective Superintendent Jason Murphy described the deaths as an 'unspeakable tragedy'.
He added: 'I believe that Giselle and Allison were still alive in the early hours of Sunday morning but family members have not been able to contact them since.'
A PSNI statement on Twitter read: 'Following post mortems detectives can confirm that the cause of 15 year old Allison Marimon-Herrera's death was strangulation.
'Results are not definitive for Giselle (37) however at this stage detectives believe there is a strong possibility she too was strangled.'
According to the Irish Times, the victims' family have requested consular assistance to allow them to travel to Northern Ireland.
Fabian Marimon said he was seeking help through diplomatic channels to visit Newry to find out what happened to his daughter.
Yadeli Marimon, the sister of the dead woman, told local media that the family had become worried after not hearing from the mother or daughter since the weekend.
A murder investigation has now been launched following the deaths of the three people.
Today hundreds of Women's Day demonstrators in Northern Ireland remembered the teenager and her mother.
Instead of a minute's silence, the crowd staged a minute's noise.
Two protesters held a placard which read: 'Their names are Giselle and Allison.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
