A British mother fighting to bring her son's body home after he died in a motorbike crash in Vietnam has said she fears he could be cremated without her permission.
Denver Barfield, 24, and a British woman died in the city of Hoi An early on Monday morning when their bike crashed into a power pole on the side of the road, local police said.
His mother, Debsy Clayton, said she is being "pestered" by a man claiming to be a Vietnamese coroner for payment to get his body back home, with an initial bill of $12,500 (£10,000).
She fears her son's body will be cremated if they do not pay the bill soon.
When she stopped replying to the messages she was sent graphic images of her son's body after the accident.
Wonder if anyone has those pics that were sent
