GEORGIA Toffolo has told of her relief after being released by immigratio­n officials in the Maldives.

The former I’m A Celebrity star, 25, said she was “detained” for nine hours at Male airport due to a problem with her passport.

Earlier, she had posted tearful videos on social media asking fans for help.

Georgia said she was not able to leave on any flights but was also not allowed to go into the Maldives.

Caron Rohsler, the British ambassador for the Maldives, later reached out to the star on Twitter.

And after being released, Georgia posted a message on Instagram, telling her 1.9 million followers: “Thank you so much to everyone who helped me.

“If I hadn’t posted online I would 100% still be stuck.”

THE executions of a couple shot dead in a lovers’ lane have been linked to associates of the Kray twins, we can reveal on the 30th anniversar­y of the unsolved murders.

Terry Gooderham, 39, and Maxine Arnold, 32, were found in a car on December 23, 1989, in Epping Forest, East London.

Police believe they were kidnapped from Arnold’s home and Gooderham forced to drive his Mercedes to the spot, where they were shot in the back of the head with a 12-bore shotgun.

Scotland Yard had the names of four gangland figures within days of the killings, but internal reports suggest corrupt police were protecting the suspects.

And a whistleblo­wing detective has now come forward to claim there was a missed opportunit­y to make early arrests.

The nowretired detective, who asked to remain anonymous, said: “They knew who did it from the beginning.”

When he heard about the double murder in the first week of January 1990, he met a reliable criminal informant from the East London underworld.

The informant said pub trade stock-taker Gooderham was killed because he knew too much about a “scam” involving gangsters using menace to take control of London pubs.

The informant named an associate of the Kray twins as being behind the scam.

He had been in Ronnie and Reggie Kray’s gang when the twins got life for murder in 1969, but then moved into the pub trade. The informant said Gooderham was nervous about his involvemen­t in the pub scam and on the verge of going to the police when he was killed.
