Two hotel workers accused of murdering the daughter of Tyrone gaelic football manager Mickey Harte while she honeymooned in Mauritius will go on trial this week.
Michaela McAreavey was found strangled in her luxury hotel room on the island in January last year, two weeks after marrying John McAreavey.
Hotel room attendant Avinash Treebhoowoon, 30, and floor supervisor Sandip Moneea, 42, will stand trial in the Mauritius Supreme Court in the capital city Port Louis on Tuesday.
Mr Treebhoowoon, from Plaine des Roches, and Mr Moneea, from Petit Raffray, deny premeditated murder.
Mr McAreavey, a gaelic footballer from Co Down, has travelled back to the island with members of his and the Harte family for the trial.
The widower is due to give evidence as a prosecution witness.
Mr Harte is not attending.
Mr Justice Prithviraj Fecknah will preside over the trial, which will be heard before a jury of nine, and is expected to last two weeks.
30 witnesses are listed to give evidence.
The Legends Hotel, which has since been renamed the Lux Hotel, is in the fishing village of Grand Gaube, close to Mauritius's Grand Bay.
Mrs McAreavey taught religious education and the Irish language at St Patrick's Academy in Dungannon, Co Tyrone.
Her funeral was held close to her family home at St Malachy's chapel in Ballymacilroy - the same church she had married in a fortnight before she was killed.
Then president Mary McAleese was among dignitaries at the funeral, which was attended by more than 3,000 people, as the newlywed was buried in her wedding dress.
