As a Byron Bay mother-of-two faces interrogation in Indonesia following the bashing death of police officer, her family and community back home are rallying around her.

Sara Connor left the seaside town on the NSW north coast for a short holiday in Bali this month.

She met up with David Taylor, a British-born DJ who lived at Byron Bay until recently and played various gigs at dance parties and on local radio.

Somehow the pair have been wrapped up in a murder investigation involving a Bali police officer on the holiday island's popular Kuta beach.
