A teenage British backpacker has drowned in a river on a trip to the Amazon rainforest.

Ayobola Owatemi, 19, of Plumstead, South London, had been swimming with a pal in the Maranon River in northern Peru. His former school head John Welsh said: "Ayo was incredibly popular. He was a natural leader and would have made his mark on the world."
