The mother of a teenager who died after "taking two pills" at a dance music festival in Portsmouth has spoken of her grief at losing "her little girl". Georgia Jones, 18, and a man named locally as Tommy Bakeer, 20, died in separate incidents at Mutiny Festival. A Queen Alexandra Hospital spokesman said some of the 15 festival goers treated presented with "drug-related" symptoms.
