The girls, aged 17 and 20, were found unconscious in one of the pools at a holiday complex on Wednesday evening.

The reasons for their death and the circumstances of the incident were still under investigation, the officials said. A hotel manager and a lifeguard were being questioned.
The sisters had been holidaying on the island with their parents and two younger siblings since July 28. Greek media reported that the parents told police the girls could not swim.
