The mother of Martyn Hett, a PR manager who died in Monday's Manchester bombing, has said that she feels "no hate" towards his killer.

"I don't think this person deserves any of those emotions I should invest in. I'm staying with my positivity for Martyn and that's what I hold on to," said Figen Murray.

The 29-year-old, from Stockport, was at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester Arena when the blast occurred.

"I've only just realised how many people thought so highly of him, how many lives he touched. It is just simply staggering, what I'm hearing," said Hett's stepfather, Stuart Murray.

Hett worked as a digital manager for a PR company in Altrincham.

He had a large social media following, and was well known for the time he took to Twitter to promote his mother's stall at a craft fair after she told him that no one was buying anything. Hett's appeal led to to many people buying his mother's knitted products.
