Two arrests have been made in Ethiopia over the murder of an Austrian tourist.  

The 27-year-old tourist was robbed and murdered while on rafting holidaying on the Nile River in Ethiopia last week.

Ethiopia police say that the two suspects, thought to be part of a group of ten to twenty people, were found to be in possession of clothing, money and other materials belonging to the victim.

The victim was with another three Austrian nationals when the incident occurred but they managed to escape unharmed.

The surviving members of the group have since returned to Austria.
