The family of a 'loving father' who died on holiday in Spain are fighting to bring his body home after the tragedy. Dad-of-two Tobias White-Sansom died in hospital five days after an alleged incident near a nightclub in Magaluf, the Spanish island of Majorca.
He is the brother of Nottinghamshire entrepreneur Maximillian White, who has made his wealth from medicinal cannabis and owns a property on the holiday island. Tobias died on Sunday (July 31) after reportedly being kept in an induced coma for several days after being rushed to hospital following the incident on July 26.
His cousin Ricardo Capone said the news had left the family "devastated". He said the family are now fighting to bring the body of their loved one "back home".

Mr Capone said: "He was living in Dubai but he is a Radford lad. We need to bring his body back home." In a letter to Nottinghamshire Live, the family said: "Tobias (Toby) White-Sansom is a loving father to two young girls, aged one and four. He is a kind-hearted, hardworking dad with a large family and countless friends.
"We are fighting with our embassy to have Toby’s body returned to the UK for further examination and the involvement of a British law firm to oversee this case." In a statement, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office said: “We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Mallorca and are in contact with the local authorities.” Nottinghamshire Live has approached police in Spain for comment.
