Warning for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers: this article contains references to and images of someone who has died.
Vigils are to be held across Australia on Thursday to remember a 5-year-old girl who was allegedly murdered two weeks ago.
The body of the girl, known as Kumanjayi Little Baby for cultural reasons, was found on 30 April, five days after she went missing from an Aboriginal town camp near Alice Springs.
Jefferson Lewis, 47, has been charged with her murder, which sparked riots in Alice Springs amid an outpouring of grief and anger.
The public has been invited to join candlelit vigils in the Northern Territory (NT) town and other state capitals and cities late on Thursday afternoon. Her family has encouraged those attending to wear pink, Kumanjayi Little Baby's favourite colour.
