'Devoted' father dies after alleged assault in Turkey
Scot James, from Maesteg, died in hospital on Sunday after the incident earlier in July
A man who died after an alleged assault in Turkey was a "devoted" father who "touched countless lives", his family said.
Scot James, 34, from Maesteg, Bridgend county, died in hospital on Sunday after the incident earlier in July.
Turkish authorities are investigating, with support from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO).
In a tribute, James' family said he was "deeply loved by everyone who knew him".
James was flown back to Wales via air ambulance from Turkey on Friday 24 July, but died at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital in Talbot Green, Rhondda Cynon Taf, two days later.
His family described him as a kind, loyal, and "devoted" son, grandson, brother, partner, father, uncle and friend.
They said: "He had a warm heart, a great sense of humour, and a natural ability to bring people together, leaving a lasting impression on all who had the privilege of knowing him.
"As a family, we are heartbroken by his loss. No words can truly express the pain we are experiencing or the void his passing has left in our lives.
"We will treasure the time we shared with him and hold him close in our hearts always."
