The two LED lights were taken from St Botolph's Church, known as Boston Stump, on Monday.
The church had planned a special service to mark the switch-on after the original lights were damaged in the 2013 floods.
Church-goer Peter Sherlock said he was "very upset that the church is being persecuted in this way".
"We need to have the Stump as a shining light and a beacon in the area," he said, after offering to pay another £2,000 to replace the lights.
The reward is offered for information leading to an arrest "of the person or people responsible".
Anyone with information about the damage is asked to contact police.
Reverend Alyson Buxton, said: "There is so much hard work goes into it and so much restoration after the floods.
"It was such a fitting thing that two years after the floods we could light the building again."
The lights were due to be switched on in November, the first time since the building was damaged by flooding in December 2013.
The total damage caused by the flooding was estimated to have cost between £250,000 and £500,000. | A £2,000 reward has been offered after new foodlights were stolen from a Boston church. |

The Trade Union Bill, being debated in the Lords on Monday, would require Labour-affiliated union members to "opt in" to paying a levy to the party.
Labour believes three million fewer members of the biggest unions would agree, impacting on its structure.
Internal party changes are already set to cut union members' contributions.
Labour is also set to lose out by about £1.3m a year when state funding for opposition parties - known as Short money - is cut. Ministers have said political parties should make their contribution to tackling the deficit.
A Labour Party document shared with the Guardian newspaper makes clear the scale of the potential threat from the new bill to Labour's finances.
Unions are said to currently provide 20% of Labour's core funding and according to the Guardian, the estimated fall in funding will make it impossible for Labour to maintain its current structure, staffing or offices.
"With an annual salary cost in excess of over 50% of total costs, it is clear that current staffing levels could not be sustained," the party document is reported to say.
"In addition to a staffing review, all contracts would need to be challenged to remove any discretionary costs and offices considered for sale or sublet."
Members of the 14 Labour-affiliated unions, which includes Unite, the GMB, Unison, the Communication Workers Union and the Usdaw, currently contribute automatically, but can opt out if they wish.
The legislation going through Parliament would see union members having to "opt in" every five years to pay a political levy as part of their fees.
BBC political correspondent Ross Hawkins says Labour is facing a considerable financial challenge and it is in the party's interest to highlight the impact the new law would have.
Lord Collins, a former Labour general secretary, tells the Guardian: "These changes are entirely partisan, unfair and going to hit the income of the party and union political funds very hard.
"No balancing measure is being taken to cap the donations of the Conservative Party."
Business Secretary Sajid Javid has said the new bill, which also proposes tighter rules on strike ballots, was "about democracy and accountability" and "not a declaration of war" against unions. | The Labour Party fears its annual income could fall by £6m as a result of legal changes to the way it gets funds from the unions, documents suggest. |
Mr Holmes said he lingered outside the cinema for a "moment or two" and called a mental health hotline. He also thought the FBI could have stopped him.
His phone call to the crisis line was disconnected, and the FBI did not come.
Mr Holmes is on trial for carrying out the deadly shooting in June 2012.
He has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity.
Prosecutors say Holmes was sane at the time of the shooting and are seeking the death penalty.
Defence attorneys claim schizophrenia distorted his ability to tell right from wrong and he should be sent to the state mental hospital.
Two state-appointed psychiatrists deemed Holmes legally sane but mentally ill at the time of the shooting at the suburban movie theatre.
"At that point, I'm on autopilot," Holmes said in the video, in which he was being interviewed by state psychiatrist Dr William Reid.
He "doubted he could be talked out of it" but called the hotline as "one last chance to see if I should turn back".
When the phone call was disconnected, he knew "it was really going to happen".
Mr Holmes told Dr Reid he would be remembered as a "bad guy" and that he "accomplished what he set out to do".
In the video, Mr Holmes showed a lot of rational thinking, Dr Reid said.
Mr Holmes also told him he was not using drugs in the weeks before the attack. | James Holmes had called a crisis hotline for help before he killed 12 people and wounded 70 others at a Colorado cinema, according to a video interview. |
That means additional money as a result of a reallocation of funds from the Northern Ireland Executive.
It is a one-off payment with £5m of it going entirely on capital or building funds. So how will the money be spent?
At this stage there is little detail. However, from the health minister's statement it seems that the money will go directly to unscheduled care which includes emergency departments.
It will also be directed to those areas within hospitals which often experience bed blocking - when patients cannot be discharged as there is nowhere for them to be cared for in the community, including in their own homes.
Health Minister Michelle O'Neill said: "This funding will help address a range of front line pressures right across the health and social care sector, including unscheduled care, improving patient flow through our hospitals and additional social care provision to help meet increasing demands."
Alongside welcoming the funding, the minister took the opportunity to stress that she supports reform of the health and social care system.
Revealing that she met Prof Rafael Bengoa on Tuesday morning, who is leading the expert panel on the reform of health and social care in Northern Ireland, the minister said it is about changing how services are delivered.
"He made it clear that his report is not about closing hospitals, it is about changing the way services are provided," Ms O'Neill said.
"There needs to be a shift in focus from where services are currently designed around the people who deliver them and the places where they are delivered, to focus on the needs of the patient."
So the minister appears to be pressing ahead with plans started by her Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) predecessor Simon Hamilton to change how services are delivered or which buildings they are delivered from.
Mr Hamilton also triggered the idea that politics should be removed from health.
That theme continued when, announcing the funding, the Finance Minister Máirtín Ó Muilleoir said it was important that politics be taken out of health.
What is surprising is that none of this money will be used to tackle waiting lists.
A statement also refers to providing additional social care provision. That suggests extra money will perhaps be spent on providing home help or domiciliary care, so patients can be discharged from hospital quicker in order to be cared for at home.
Addressing the assembly last week, the health minister said she would do whatever was possible to help people who required operations and treatment.
"While this short-term financial boost is to be welcomed, it is only through longer-term structural reform that we will secure an efficient and effective health and social care service."
As part of the £72m investment, funding is also being provided for projects including providing support for the hearing screening programme for newborn babies.
According to the Department of Health, the funding will provide a robust, failsafe mechanism for recording the results of newborn hearing screening tests to ensure that the right treatment can be provided to babies.
Also money will be used towards funding the Ambulance Response System.
The aim is to replace the mobile data and Automated Vehicle Location System (AVLS) system for mobilisation of ambulance fleet and bidirectional communication between crews and ambulance control and ensure a reliable 999 response to patients. | So, it appears Northern Ireland's Health and Social Care Service is to get an extra £72m as part of the June Monitoring round. |
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's remarks came after a speech by President Hassan Rouhani at the UN in which he called for an investigation.
Saudi Arabia has accused Iran of playing politics with a tragedy.
At least 769 people died in the crush, more than 140 of them from Iran.
It was the deadliest incident to hit the Hajj in 25 years.
The crush occurred on Thursday morning as two large groups of pilgrims converged at right angles as they took part in the Hajj's last major rite - stone-throwing at pillars called Jamarat, where Satan is believed to have tempted the Prophet Abraham.
As pilgrims completed the final rituals of this year's Hajj in the shadow of Thursday's tragic events, the row between the Saudis and Iran over who was responsible only grew in virulence.
Iran lost at least 140 of its citizens in the disaster. But its outrage has political motivations, too, as its battle with Saudi Arabia for regional dominance sharpens week by week. The rivalry between Shia Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia also has a religious dimension.
Despite all the billions the Saudis have spent on the infrastructure of the Hajj, there is a growing chorus of criticism which extends beyond Iran.
It is claimed that their organisation of the pilgrimage may not have paid enough attention to the basic human level of managing the mass influx of pilgrims so that all are treated equally, as the simple white clothing they assume on entering Mecca is meant to symbolise.

"This issue will not be forgotten and the nations will pursue it seriously," Ayatollah Khamenei said.
"Instead of accusing this and that, the Saudis should accept the responsibility and apologise to the Muslims and the victims' families," he added.
"The Islamic world has a lot of questions. The death of more than 1,000 people is not a small issue," he said, citing claims by Iranian officials of a higher death toll.
President Rouhani has described the stampede as "heart-rending".
Also on Saturday, Prosecutor General Sayed Ibrahim Raisi said on state television that Iran would seek the trial of the Saudi royal family over its "crimes" in "international courts".
As well as the fatalities, 934 people were injured.
But Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, who is in New York to attend the UN General Assembly, said on Sunday: "This is not a situation with which to play politics.
"I would hope that the Iranian leaders would be more sensible and more thoughtful with regards to those who perished in this tragedy and wait until we see the results of the investigation."
Earlier, the country's most senior cleric, Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin-Abdullah al-Sheikh, defended the authorities, saying the stampede was "beyond human control".
King Salman has ordered a safety review into the disaster.
The disaster is the second to strike in two weeks, after a crane collapsed at the Grand Mosque in Mecca, killing 109 people.
Saturday was the final day of the Hajj, with no further incidents reported.

The 21-year-old made just one first-team appearance for the Canaries after joining them from Falkirk in 2014.
He moved to Norwich after scoring eight goals in 82 games for Falkirk, and will move to Stadium:MK on two-year deal when his Norwich contract ends in June.
McGrandles played alongside Dons manager Robbie Neilson during his time with Falkirk.
"When I learnt MK Dons were interested, I knew that it would be a great place for me to come to," McGrandles told the club website.
"I know the ambition of the club is to get out of the league again and that was a big factor. I know the manager and the coaching staff well too so that was another big draw."
McGrandles was among a group of Norwich youngsters released earlier in the month, with the announcement coming shortly after their first-team retained list was published.

Mr Balls said Mr Corbyn's approach was "devoid of connection to the reality of people's lives".
The remarks are made in his autobiography, Speaking Out, which also includes candid reflections on Labour's general election defeat last year.
Mr Corbyn's campaign team said there was "nothing utopian" about working for "ordinary, hard-working people".
In his memoir, serialised in the Times, Mr Balls reflects on a political career that took him from the commanding heights of government to crushing defeat at the general election.
He lost his seat of Morley and Outwood to Conservative Andrea Jenkyns in the 2015 vote.
On his relationship with former leader Ed Miliband, he writes: "Having kept me at a distance in the run-up to the election in 2015, I think we probably only spoke twice in the whole four-week election campaign.
"That was astonishingly dysfunctional when I compare it to how Tony [Blair] and Gordon [Brown] worked."
He also opens up on Ed Miliband's 2014 conference speech, after which the then Labour leader was widely criticised for forgetting to mention immigration or the deficit.
"The omissions were a symbol of Labour not being willing to face up to the problems the country was worried about and proof that we were trying to brush difficult issues under the carpet.
"We weren't ready — and didn't deserve — to return to government. It was incredibly frustrating," he said.
His criticism of Mr Miliband's successor is stronger still.
He writes: "Refusing to listen to the electorate has never been a winning formula, any more than Jeremy Corbyn thinking the volume of the cheering from your core supporters is a reliable guide to wider public opinion.
"Caution will not win the day; but nor will Jeremy Corbyn's leftist utopian fantasy, devoid of connection to the reality of people's lives."
Mr Balls's reflections come as MPs prepare to return to Westminster - and he prepares to appear on BBC One's Strictly Come Dancing.
The Jeremy Corbyn for PM campaign tweeted that it was "sad to see" Ed Balls's comments, saying "All members of Labour should be striving for the policies that Jeremy has laid out."
"There's nothing utopian about wanting this country to work in the interests of ordinary, hard-working people. There's nothing fantastical about believing in a system where people are treated as equal."
It was "a bit rich for a man who lost the support of the country at large - and even the voters in his own seat - to lecture on being 'in touch'," it added.
"It's worrying that a former shadow chancellor of the exchequer should feel that rail nationalisation, energy democracy and clamping down on tax avoidance is a leftist utopian fantasy." | Former shadow chancellor Ed Balls has said Jeremy Corbyn's Labour leadership style is a "leftist utopian fantasy". |
Rovers were by far the better side in the first half but could not make their pressure count as they failed to score for the third time in four games.

His second goal in successive games leaves Rovers without a win in 10.
Visiting keeper Jayson Leutwiler was Shrewsbury's star man with a string of saves, capped by a magnificent effort to tip away Cameron Stewart's injury-time free-kick. And, when he was beaten, Andy Butler had a header cleared off the line by Ian Black.
Shrewsbury Town boss Micky Mellon told BBC Radio Shropshire:
"It's a massive victory. The questions the lads have been asked were answered with three points.
"It's a vitally important goal. This is what you get at this time of the season and it's always good to get clean sheets.
"I am delighted with our performance. We needed the energy and enthusiasm of the whole squad to get a result. We had desire and commitment." | Shaun Whalley scored a freak second-half winner straight from a corner to stretch Shrewsbury's unbeaten League One run to five games at Doncaster. |
Mary Hampton's bicycle was taken while she did her weekly shop in Waitrose.
The 89-year-old from Berkhamsted in Hertfordshire admitted she was "very silly" not to have locked it, but in 85 years of cycling she "never had".
After news of the theft hit social media, dozens offered to buy Mary a new one. Her local cycling club has loaned her one "for as long as I need it".
Mrs Hampton was in the habit of cycling the three miles to the supermarket once or twice a week on her trusty Raleigh Shopper.
But when she went shopping last Thursday, she returned to find her bike gone.
The former primary school teacher said: "It was an old-looking bike, I didn't think anybody would be going to steal it."
Her plight was shared on social media and within 24 hours, dozens of offers of new bicycles flooded in for Mary via Facebook.
She finally accepted a loan of a fold-up bicycle from Berkhamsted Cycling Club.
People also clubbed together to give her money for a new lock and a basket for her new bike.
"I've bought a huge padlock. I've never seen such a big padlock," Mrs Hampton said.
"One bad action happened, but think of the wonderful kindness and caring that's come from it," she added. | An elderly woman whose bicycle was stolen while she was shopping has been overwhelmed by offers of replacements. |
Belgian Stoffel Vandoorne completed only 40 laps - just 11 more than team-mate Fernando Alonso on Monday.
With a quarter of pre-season testing gone, McLaren have completed 69 slow laps. Mercedes have done more than 300.
Kimi Raikkonen's Ferrari was fastest on Tuesday, from Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes and Max Verstappen's Red Bull.
Vandoorne finished the day 10th fastest of 11 drivers and 4.6 seconds off the pace.
Honda has introduced a new engine layout for this season, following the design philosophy used by Mercedes since the start of the turbo hybrid formula in 2014.
Honda F1 engine boss Yusuke Hasegawa said at the launch of the McLaren car last Friday that he believed the Japanese company could match by the start of the season the power levels achieved by Mercedes at the end of 2016. Mercedes are understood to have made another step since then.
But the technology involved is complicated and Honda has so far not managed to make the engine work in the car.
On Monday, Alonso's problem was caused by a new oil-tank design that was not scavenging the oil effectively.
Vandoorne completed 29 laps on Tuesday morning before another engine problem kept him in the pits for several hours.
He returned to the track for the final hour but did just 11 laps. One was enough to move him off the bottom of the time sheets.
Honda has not yet said what the problem was with the engine Vandoorne used on Tuesday.
"We would have liked to put in more laps," Vandoorne said. "Hopefully overnight we can analyse what went wrong and come back with a reliable car tomorrow.
"This was my first day of testing, Fernando didn't get many laps in yesterday, so tomorrow and after tomorrow are going to be important days for us."

While McLaren toiled, Mercedes and Ferrari continued their impressive starts to their 2017 campaigns at Spain's Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
Hamilton was fastest in the morning, when he completed 66 laps - the length of the Spanish Grand Prix.
Team-mate Valtteri Bottas took over the car in the afternoon and completed the first full race-simulation run of the winter.
But it was Raikkonen who set the pace, with a lap in one minute 20.960 seconds - 0.023secs quicker than Hamilton.
Raikkonen was using the 'soft' tyre when he set his lap and Hamilton the faster super-soft. But Hamilton lost 0.3secs in the last sector of the lap compared to his best time on the soft tyre, which suggests he could have gone faster.
It is in any case unwise to use headline lap times in testing as a guide to form as it is impossible to know the fuel loads of the cars, how hard the engines are being pushed or the specification they are running in.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen was third fastest, ahead of the Haas of Kevin Magnussen.
Williams rookie Lance Stroll had a difficult start to his 2017 campaign, spinning at Turn Nine after just 12 laps.
The 18-year-old Canadian damaged the front wing and that ended his running for the day as Williams needed to send back to their factory in Oxfordshire for replacements, which will not arrive in Spain until Wednesday morning.
"It is unfortunate," he said. "One front wing, a spin, a little winglet [damaged], but that is Formula 1. The car is very complex. There is not a lot of room for error.
"I'm just getting to grips with the car. A little spin. I drove back to the paddock. Sometimes these things happen, but no, not a dent in the confidence."

The UK government has officially started the process of leaving the European Union.
In the letter to trigger Article 50 Theresa May said she would consult on which powers should be devolved.
First Minister Carwyn Jones said there was "no reason" why Brexit should be "disastrous" and said its effect could be minimal if done properly.
In the letter to European Council president Donald Tusk, Mrs May said: "From the start and throughout the discussions, we will negotiate as one United Kingdom, taking due account of the specific interests of every nation and region of the UK as we do so.
"When it comes to the return of powers back to the United Kingdom, we will consult fully on which powers should reside in Westminster and which should be devolved to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
"But it is the expectation of the Government that the outcome of this process will be a significant increase in the decision-making power of each devolved administration."
Carwyn Jones told BBC Wales that there was "no reason" why Brexit "should be disastrous".
Mr Jones said the negotiations will take "much more than two years. It will be five years. We have to be patient.
"What's important is that this is got right and not rushed and got wrong."
He said if the negotiations are "done properly then actually the effect can be minimal. The effect can be such that it won't cause us any difficulties at all.
"If it is done badly it's a potential disaster. It makes Wales and the UK look as if we're out on a limb somewhere, a group of islands off the coast of Europe that isn't part of a very large market."
Earlier, in a statement responding to the triggering of Article 50, Mr Jones told the Senedd that he would welcome Mrs May's comments on devolving powers if they "prove to be the case".
"If not, this government will oppose vigorously as, I have no doubt, will others in this chamber," he said.
Mr Jones told AMs that although he had discussed the letter "in general terms" with the Prime Minister when she visited Swansea last week, ministers did not see the letter before Wednesday, nor were invited to contribute to its drafting.
"This is unacceptable and is the culmination of a deeply frustrating process in which the devolved administrations have been persistently treated with a lack of respect," he said.
Andrew RT Davies, the Conservative leader in the assembly, rejected claims that Theresa May had not listened to and consulted the Welsh Government.
"The prime minister has been to Wales five times," he said, amid heckling in the chamber.
Mr Davies - who had campaigned to leave the EU - went on to accuse Mr Jones and his government of not engaging with those on the majority side of the referendum result.
He also welcomed the prime minister's commitment to give greater powers to Wales.
Earlier on Wednesday Mr Davies told BBC Radio Wales the first minister had no evidence to support his claim on Tuesday that farming subsidies could disappear after the UK leaves the European Union.
Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood told the Senedd that Wednesday was a "profound day in the history of Wales".
Highlighting that 67% of exports in Wales last year went to the EU, she said: "While Wales voted narrowly to leave the EU, the UK government's intention is to take us out of the single market as well.
"The UK government's intention to reach a free trade agreement will not put us in the same position as Norway, Iceland or Switzerland."
UKIP assembly group leader Neil Hamilton said he regretted that Mr Jones "yet again has failed to rise to the level of events".
"Does he not see that today acts as a great day for the United Kingdom and a great day for Wales?" Mr Hamilton asked.
"Because what we are seeing here is the beginning of a process of the restoration of democratic self-government.
"I say to the first minister, do cheer up." he added.
David Rees, the Labour AM who chairs the assembly's external affairs committee, said: "Irrespective of party, or of where we stood during the referendum, we must now come together in the Welsh interest.
"We have years of hard work ahead of us and we will need to draw on the expertise and talents of the Welsh people to get a deal that is right for Wales."
Welsh Liberal Democrat leader Mark Williams MP said the prime minister had chosen "the hardest and most divisive form of Brexit ... tearing Wales' businesses, farmers, and industry out of the world's biggest single market".
"I welcome the commitment to the transfer of powers to Wales," he added.
"However Wales must have the resources to effectively deliver for the people of Wales on those new powers."
Analysis by BBC Wales parliamentary correspondent David Cornock
The prime minister promised that the Welsh Government would be "fully engaged" in the Brexit process but it has not been difficult to highlight differences between the approach of the UK and Welsh governments.
Theresa May believes continued membership of the single market "would mean being bound by EU laws. That would mean in practice not leaving the EU".
The Welsh Government - and Plaid Cymru - believe continued "participation" in the single market is still possible if the freedom of movement rules apply only to those with a job.
But it is also easy to exaggerate the differences between the two governments. As recently as January, a spokesman for the first minister said they were not "irreconcilable". Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns has spoken of "common ground" on free trade.

Richard Maycock, 43, from Walsgrave in Warwickshire, was found guilty of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl at a school in Coventry in 2013.
The girl told her parents Maycock touched her after a swimming lesson and said she would be in trouble if she told anyone.
He also admitted sexually assaulting a second girl at a school in Redditch.
The Redditch abuse came to light during the Coventry investigation, when a former pupil at a school in the Worcestershire town reported Maycock had abused her between 2005 and 2006 when he was a teacher there.
Det Con Sarah Rose from Warwickshire Police said: "Maycock used his position as a teacher to abuse the trust these two girls had in him.

There were heavy exchanges of gunfire and plumes of smoke could be seen rising from the building afterwards.
The attackers escaped with several suspected militants detained there.
Local officials blamed the raid on al-Qaeda, which has urged supporters to take up arms against the government in response to a crackdown in the east.
The assailants - dressed in military uniforms - pulled up outside the heavily guarded compound, which is situated in the al-Tawahi district near the city's port, in two cars at around 0740 local time (0440 GMT), officials said.

They then opened fire with rocket-propelled grenades and machine guns, before storming the central courtyard and setting free several suspected militants, the officials added.
The attack came amid a flag ceremony at the Political Security Organisation (PSO) headquarters, one security official told Reuters news agency
"The high number of casualties was due to the fact that the attack came during the morning flag salute," the official said.
Witnesses told the AFP news agency that the assailants were later "seen leaving the building in a bus, taking people who had been detained there with them".
Medics told the agency that three female cleaners had also died during the raid.
In 2003, 10 men escaped from the same building, including one later convicted of involvement in the plot to blow up the USS Cole in Aden's harbour in 2000.

It has claimed to have been behind a number of attacks in the two countries over the past year, and has been blamed for attempting to blow up a US passenger jet as it flew into Detroit on Christmas Day.
Earlier this week, the group called on tribes in eastern Yemen to help it "light up the ground with fire under the tyrants of infidelity in the regime" in retaliation for alleged air strikes in the region. | Gunmen have attacked the headquarters of Yemen's domestic intelligence agency in the city of Aden, killing at least 10 security officers, officials say. |
Herbalife agreed to pay $200m (£150m) to settle the accusations.
The FTC had been investigating whether Herbalife misled customers about the potential value of reselling its products.
The deal was a blow to activist investor Bill Ackman who was betting against the company.
Herbalife shares climbed over 18% at one point.
Mr Ackman made several public allegations that Herbalife was a "bad" company that relied on a hierarchical structure that focused on recruiting new salespeople rather than selling products.
The FTC investigation also focused on this structure. Herbalife uses a direct sales method where products are bought by distributors to sell to the public and who are also encouraged to bring in new recruits.
The FTC settlement requires Herbalife to reorganise its compensation system to reward retail sales more than recruitment.
The regulator said, only a small proportion of Herbalife distributors earned anything near the amount the company promised.
"Herbalife is going to have to start operating legitimately, making only truthful claims about how much money its members are likely to make," said FTC chairwoman Edith Ramirez in a statement.
Herbalife marketing material advertised that part-time sellers of its nutritional products would earn between $500 to $1,500 a month. Many distributors, in fact, lost money.
On Friday, the company also announced it was changing its internal governance to allow investor Carl Icahn to own a larger stake in the company.
Mr Icahn will now be able to own 35% of Herbalife shares.
In a statement, he praised the company's management for the way it handled the investigation. He also said the company should move on and look at possibly acquiring some competitors.
"Now that the company has reached a settlement with the FTC, it is time to consider a range of strategic opportunities, including potential roll-ups involving competitors, as well as other strategic transactions," Mr Icahn said.
His support of Herbalife led to a dispute with Mr Ackman. Mr Ackman has been "shorting" the company - a strategy where an investor borrows stock and sells it hoping to buy it back at a lower price before the date of return.

Govinda said on Tuesday that he "respected" the top court and was waiting for its order.
Santosh Ray said Govinda had slapped him "without any provocation" while he was watching a film shoot in 2008.
Govinda, a former MP, was one of Bollywood's top comedy stars in the 1980s and 1990s.
Mr Ray had sought criminal proceedings against the actor, but his lawyer later told the court that his client would be satisfied with an apology, reports say.
"I was just watching the shooting of a movie as I was his fan. But the incident left me shocked and I lost all respect for him," he told The Hindustan Times newspaper.
On Monday, the court watched video recordings of the incident and asked Govinda to apologise to Mr Ray.
"We all enjoy your movies and you are a great actor but we cannot tolerate your action of slapping. You don't need to do in actual life what you do on screen," the court was quoted as saying by The Times of India newspaper.
"You don't need to pay money for it. Even expressing regret is more than enough. Your prestige would not go down by expressing regret. Have a large heart and apologise," the judges said.
Govinda told reporters on Tuesday that he did "not want to hurt anybody" and was waiting for the complete court order before deciding what to do. | India's Supreme Court has told a Bollywood actor to apologise to a fan whom he slapped while he was shooting a film seven years ago. |

Sixty-three people have been rescued, many suffering from hypothermia, according to a maritime rescue centre in Russia's Far East.
The Dalniy Vostok freezer trawler had 132 people on board when it sank.
Seventy-eight of the crew were Russian, with the remainder coming from countries including Latvia, Ukraine, Myanmar and Vanuatu.
The Dalniy Vostok went down in the Sea of Okhotsk, 330 km (205 miles) west of Krutogorovsky settlement, at around 06:30 (20:30 GMT Wednesday).
Drifting ice may have holed the vessel, according to Russian emergency services.
Water flooded the engine compartment and the trawler then sank within 15 minutes, a local branch of the Russian Emergencies Ministry said.
The ship did not send out a distress signal before the accident, according to local media.
Some two dozen ships and a rescue helicopter are involved in searching for remaining survivors in freezing waters around zero degrees C (32degF).
The 15 people who are still missing are thought to have been in the ship's hold as the trawler sank, reported Russia's Tass news agency. | A Russian trawler has sunk off the Kamchatka peninsula, with 54 sailors so far confirmed dead. |
Colin Penrose, 22, was found bound and strangled in E Hall at Barlinnie Prison in Glasgow in March 2014.
Fellow prisoner John Clark, who was 21 at the time, was found guilty of murder after claiming it was a prank hostage situation gone wrong.
The hearing will begin on 16 December at Glasgow Sheriff Court.
Jailing Clark for at least 19 years in November 2014, Judge Michael O'Grady told him: "You acted as judge, jury and executioner quite literally in this case."
The High Court in Glasgow was told Clark was motivated by the fact that Penrose, of Oban, was a convicted sex offender.
Now, the Crown Office has said a Fatal Accident Inquiry will be heard into the man's death later this year.

They were found guilty of breaches surrounding a £1.3m ($2m) "disloyal payment" made to Platini in 2011.
The Fifa ethics committee found Blatter and Platini had demonstrated an "abusive execution" of their positions.
"I will fight for me and for Fifa," Blatter, 79, said at a news conference.
Media playback is not supported on this device
Platini said the decision was a "masquerade" intended to "dirty" his name.
Both men continue to deny wrongdoing and intend to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).
Swiss Blatter and 60-year-old Frenchman Platini have also been fined £33,700 ($50,000) and £54,000 ($80,000) respectively.
Despite the ban, both Blatter and Platini will be allowed to attend matches - including Euro 2016 in France - if they buy tickets in a private capacity.
Fifa boss since 1998, Blatter had already announced he was quitting with a presidential election in February.
Platini was tipped as a future leader of football's world governing body and is a three-time European Footballer of the Year.
He is also a former captain of France and has been in charge of Uefa - European football's governing body - since 2007.
Unshaven and sporting a plaster over his right cheek, Blatter was in defiant mood at a news conference he had called in advance of the punishments being made public.
"I will fight," he said. "I will fight for me and for Fifa."
He said he was "really sorry" that he is still "a punching ball" and that he has become tainted in the eyes of humanity.
He added that he thought he had convinced the Fifa ethics tribunal that the payment from Fifa to Platini was legitimate.
He plans to appeal, first to Fifa, then Cas. He may also take legal action under Swiss law if needed.
Blatter: Key quotes from hour-long news conference
"The decision is no surprise to me," he said in a statement. "The procedure initiated against me by Fifa's ethics committee is a pure masquerade.
"It has been rigged to tarnish my name by bodies I know well and who for me are bereft of all credibility or legitimacy."
In the meantime, Uefa has issued a statement, revealing it is "extremely disappointed" with the decision.
It added: "Once again, Uefa supports Michel Platini's right to a due process and the opportunity to clear his name."
Former Asian Football Confederation general secretary Peter Velappan added: "This is very harsh, especially for Blatter because he dedicated his life to football and Fifa. Eight years is like a death sentence."

Isha Johansen, the president of Sierra Leone's Football Association, said: "I'm not saying Blatter was a saint, but the way everything has been piled on his head to make it look like it was all his fault... I think it's most unfair."
French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet added: "Michel Platini's suspension is shocking and saddens me. It seems unbelievable.
"But it does not surprise me as the ethics commission president had already announced that Michel would be suspended for several years. Michel's guilt was decided in advance."
Football Association chairman Greg Dyke and Fifa reform campaigner Damian Collins believe it is the end for Blatter and Platini.
Dyke told BBC Radio 5 live he had "no sympathy" for Blatter but that the FA "didn't know about Platini" and "were clearly disappointed".
"We thought he had done a very good job as president of Uefa," he added.
British MP Collins said: "The fish rots from the head down and we know how rotten the head of Fifa was."
Former FA chairman David Bernstein told BBC Radio 5 live Blatter was "a drowning man really, there's no coming back from this".
"He'll fight, I'm sure of that. He's not a soft touch. He will fight but he is doomed. He is yesterday's man."

Blatter and Platini were found guilty of ethics code breaches over the "disloyal payment".
Both claimed the payment was honouring an agreement made in 1998 for work carried out between 1998 and 2002 when Platini worked as a technical adviser for Blatter.
The payment was not part of Platini's written contract but the pair insisted it was a verbal agreement, which is legal under Swiss law.
German judge Hans-Joachim Eckert, the chairman of Fifa's adjudicatory chamber, held disciplinary hearings for the pair last week.
Charges included conflict of interest, false accounting and non co-operation, with investigators submitting a file of more than 50 pages.
World football's governing body has been in turmoil for several months, following numerous allegations of corruption.
Seven Fifa officials were arrested at a Zurich hotel at the end of May.
And US authorities have charged 39 football officials and sports business executives over more than £134m ($200m) in bribes for football television and marketing deals.
Swiss prosecutors are also investigating Fifa's management as well as the award of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups to Russia and Qatar.
There is also pressure from governments and the International Olympic Committee for Fifa to push through major reforms aiming at making governance more transparent and accountable.
The presidential election is due to take place on 26 February.
There are currently five candidates to take over:
Voting will take place by secret ballot, with all Fifa's 209 member states having a vote each.
BBC Radio 5 live sports news correspondent Richard Conway: "You've got this Shakespearean drama between Platini and Blatter - two men who were once the best of friends but have become the best of enemies.
"They have now effectively destroyed each other and their chances. Platini was at one point the favourite to become Fifa president but those hopes lie in tatters.
"Fifa wants to move on and try to re-establish its reputation, it's going to be difficult do that with Blatter and Platini continuing to make noise in the background."
Joseph 'Sepp' Blatter was born in the alpine town of Visp in 1936. Blatter has been married three times and has one daughter.
After finishing school, he did his obligatory service in the Swiss army, rising to the rank of colonel.
He did not play football professionally but worked in the watch industry, then as a sports writer and in sports management, serving at the Swiss Ice Hockey Federation.
Blatter moved to Fifa as its technical director in 1975, before working as the general secretary from 1981.
He was elected, to much fanfare in his homeland, as the eighth Fifa president in 1998, succeeding Dr Joao Havelange.
He has split opinion with his sometimes controversial statements about the game but remains hugely popular with countries in Asia and Africa.
In 2004, he said female footballers should wear skimpier kits to increase the game's popularity and, following the decision to award the 2022 World Cup to Qatar, said gay fans going to the Gulf state, where homosexuality is illegal, should "refrain from sexual activity".
Platini has been boss of European football's governing body since 2007 but rose to fame as one of France's greatest footballers.
The son of a former professional player, he played for Nancy and St Etienne before joining Italian giants Juventus, with whom he was named European Footballer of the Year on three occasions.
A midfielder, Platini also made 72 appearances for France, captaining them to victory at the 1984 European Championship and helping them reach the semi-finals of two World Cups, in 1982 and 1986.
He retired as player at 32, turning to coaching and managed the French national team with mixed results from 1988 to 1992.
After turning down an offer to coach Spanish giants Real Madrid, he was asked by French president Francois Mitterrand to organise the 1998 World Cup in France and, shortly after, was appointed vice-president of the French Football Federation.
Since 2002, Platini has been a member of the executive committee of Fifa and was elected president of Uefa in 2007. He was re-elected and also became Fifa vice-president.

The locomotive was halted near St Neots about 09:30 as it made its journey from London King's Cross to York, where it will go on display at the National Railway Museum.
British Transport Police said it had received reports of about 60 people alongside the East Coast Mainline, halting the train's journey by about 15 minutes.

The Jambos are six points adrift of fourth-placed St Johnstone in the battle for a Europa League berth after Sunday's 2-1 home defeat by Aberdeen.
But Cathro, who was named head coach in December and has lost 10 of his 19 Premiership games, remains bullish.
"There is not one thing that could happen that will rock my confidence in my work - that's impossible," he said.
Cathro, who also oversaw a Scottish Cup defeat by rivals Hibernian in February, was aware of the widespread anger within the Tynecastle stands when he took midfielder Don Cowie off in the second half against the Dons.
Boos also rang out at the final whistle, and Cathro was jeered when he later emerged onto the pitch with the players to thank what fans remained in the ground for their support, after their final home game of the season, before Tynecastle's Main Stand is demolished.
"The fans are not happy, they are angry and upset and frustrated, because the team are not getting results," he told BBC Scotland. "I am the person who is responsible for that.
"I have absolute confidence in myself and in my work to find the things we need. We will deal with a bit of tension and anger, and we will build and grow. There will be different voices coming from that new stand."
Asked if he was confident he retained the support of Hearts owner Ann Budge and supporters, Cathro added: "I don't need that confidence because of the confidence I have in my work.
"Today's game could have been different. In football there are extremes. Sometimes we react, sometimes we over-react. Are we right to be angry and disappointed, given the result and the occasion? Yes. But we don't need to go crazy."
Aberdeen took the lead through Adam Rooney on Sunday and despite Esmael Goncalves' second-half leveller, Anthony O'Connor made it 2-1 three minutes later.
"The first half was a bit of a battle and Aberdeen probably had the better of us," Cathro added. "Our issue was trying to get started and finding that first pass a bit quicker.
"In the second half we improved those things and got back to 1-1 and close to getting control of the game, in the spaces where we wanted to be.
"But we made a mistake we can't make, we concede a goal and then things become far more difficult."
European football is looking unlikely for the Tynecastle outfit next season but 30-year-old Cathro is already planning on how he will make strides for next term.
"We have to bring in re-enforcements, we have to become stronger and work on these things," he said.
"One of our biggest focuses just now is looking towards next season and doing the work we have to do to get the strength right. Part of how we improve is also improving what we have here." | Ian Cathro insists he retains total confidence in his ability despite his Hearts side slipping to another defeat. |

Mr McGuiness, who also topped the non-fiction category, won the prize in 2012 for his novel The Last Hundred Days.
The Welsh-language award, presented in Caernarfon, went to Gareth F Williams for his wartime novel Awst yn Anogia.

"It's a poet's prose at its best - perfectly paced, effortless in its devices," he added.
McGuinness beat Super Furry Animals frontman Gruff Rhys, whose book American Interior was shortlisted. It was part of a multi-media project retracing the journey of his distant ancestor, the explorer John Evans.
McGuinness, who is an Oxford professor of French and comparative literature, picked up the award in his home town Caernarfon.

He is the seventh journalist to be killed this year in South Sudan, where a civil war is ongoing.
His killing comes days after President Salva Kiir threatened to kill reporters "working against the country".
A presidential spokesman said the words were taken out of context and police were investigating Mr Moi's death.
Ateny Wek Ateny said a statement would be issued to clarify President Kiir's remarks, made at the airport in Juba before he went to Ethiopia for peace talks to end the civil war.
Mr Moi worked for South Sudan's Corporate Weekly newspaper and was killed at about 20:00 local time (17:00 GMT) on Wednesday night by unidentified gunmen on the outskirts of Juba.
Juba-based journalist Jason Patinkin told the BBC's Focus on Africa radio programme that the killing of Mr Moi was a very worrying development for the journalist community in South Sudan, which has seen a steady decline in press freedom since the outbreak of the civil war in December 2013.
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) says security agents shut down two privately owned newspapers earlier this month as well as a media group that produced a popular radio series.
The media freedom lobby group has also been critical of Mr Kiir's comments, which local journalists believe were connected to media criticism of the protracted peace negotiations.
"The leader of any country threatening to kill journalists is extremely dangerous and utterly unacceptable," the CPJ's Tom Rhodes said in a statement.
Mr Kiir has also been under fire from diplomats for failing to sign a peace deal on Monday.
The US state department has said he has now promised to sign after "a couple more days of consultation".
But the US has submitted draft proposals for a UN arms embargo on South Sudan.
Nearly two million people have been left homeless since conflict broke out in the world's newest state in 2013.

The result is seen as a victory for President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, who is accused by his rivals of trying to extend his mandate, which he denies.
He called the referendum after the Senate rejected his proposals to change the constitution.
Turnout was 53.73%, with 85% of voters supporting the change, officials said.
But members of the opposition denounced an "electoral farce which has given way to open-air fraud".
Mr Abdel Aziz, who described the Senate as "useless and too costly", said the move to abolish it would improve governance by introducing more local forms of lawmaking.
He is barred by the constitution from running a third term - he came to power in a coup in 2008, was elected president the following year and won a second term in 2014.
The president is a key ally of the West and neighbouring states in countering Islamist extremist groups.

Jacintha Saldanha was found dead on 7 December 2012, days after speaking to two Australian DJs. The call led to the disclosure of the duchess's treatment.
The nurse thought it was an inquiry from the Queen, the inquest heard.
The station made four further calls to the hospital, the hearing was told.
The chief executive of the company which owns the station that made the call said it was trying to get permission to broadcast the prank.
In a statement, nurse Araceli Arcilla said Mrs Saldanha was in charge of the hospital the night the call was received during the duchess's first pregnancy.
"She came to me on the ward and told me she had received a call from somebody saying she was the Queen", she said.
"Jacintha believed it was a genuine call and she put it through to the duty nurse. She was worrying that she had put the call through.
"Jacintha told me she was very upset and felt it was her fault."
Mrs Saldanha was the first nurse to answer a call by DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian.
She passed them to a second nurse on the duchess's ward, who gave out details of her medical condition.
The second nurse, who cannot be named, told the inquest that Mrs Saldanha emailed her after the incident.
The email read: "It's all my fault. I feel very bad about this to get you involved. If there was anything I could do to mend this I would do it.
"I'm very upset and don't know what to do. Things are all going in the wrong direction."
The nurse said she addressed the caller as "ma'am" and spoke about the duchess's condition, saying she was "comfortable".
"I started feeling nervous when the caller talked to a male voice asking about taking the corgis for a walk. This seemed inappropriate for the call," she said.
The hospital's matron, Caroline Cassells, said there had been no mention of disciplinary action and both nurses involved were offered support.
Ms Cassells broke down on the stand when asked about an email she received from Mrs Saldanha the day before she was found dead.
She was unable to respond to the email immediately, she said, but later wrote to the nurse urging her not to worry.
The chief executive of Southern Cross Media Group, the parent company of 2Day FM which carried out the prank call, said it did not hold the two DJs responsible for the broadcast.
Rhys Holleran told the inquest the company accepts it did not obtain consent to run the hoax call.
He said four phone calls made to the hospital shortly after the prank were an attempt to seek permission to broadcast the call.
Earlier, Fiona Barton QC, representing the hospital, told the inquest: "If she [Mrs Saldanha] answered any of these calls - and there were four of them - then it can only have added to the stress she was under when she realised this was a prank call by a radio station."
Mrs Saldanha's husband Benedict Barboza read a statement to the court in which he described her as "my beloved wife and a caring wife, loving mother and undoubtedly one of the best nurses".
He continued: "She was a brave lady and we are very proud of her and we will always cherish her memory."
Mr Barboza said his wife had never suffered from psychological problems or depression, or attempted self-harm or to take her life.

Several deaths in Northern Ireland have been linked to drugs in the past fortnight.
Dr Michael McKenna said GPs are under pressure.
"The difficulty with the services is they are so overwhelmed that they cannot cope with the deluge of stuff that's coming in," he said.
"The money is one part of the equation, but actually physically the number of bodies on the ground to provide these services is also an issue.
"It can't just fall to GPs, we are already under tremendous pressures."
Dr McKenna told BBC's Good Morning Ulster programme that the number of his patients who had died due to drug addiction in the last 10 years would be "into double figures".
More people in Northern Ireland die from drugs than those in road fatalities, according to the PSNI.
The latest figures released last month show there were 74 fatalities as a result of road crashes in 2015, but 88 opioid-related deaths in the same year.
Those drugs include heroin, morphine, methadone, as well as prescription drugs such as tramadol.
William Burns' son, Jamie, died last November after taking one pill on a night out.
"Anybody out there thinking drugs are good, if they had have been with me that night and saw my son on that trolley - blood on the floor, he had needles in his arms, he had tubes coming out of his mouth, he had his eyes taped and you could physically see the life draining away from him," said Mr Burns.
He said later a doctor "knelt down in front of the two of us and he just said 'look I'm sorry, I don't know how to tell you this, but he's gone'.
"You want the ground to open and just swallow you up."
Mr Burns is now involved in a campaign called #onepillwillkill to highlight the dangers of drugs.
"You could have taken 10 pills before it, over a period of weeks and been fine, and you could just take this one pill [which could kill you]," he said.
"I'm 110% sure that if my son had realised the consequences of taking one pill, he wouldn't have done it." | A Belfast GP has said that drug addiction services in Northern Ireland are overwhelmed and it is time for a multi-agency approach. |
Her comments followed a report about Avon Fire and Rescue that she said "makes grim reading".
She said: "We are looking at exploring options for different ways of governance".
Fire authority chair Donald Davies said "mistakes have been made".
The PCC said the report "left a nasty taste in the mouth".
"Particularly in the light of the austerity cuts that we've all had in the public sector," she said. "To see that firefighters have had a 1% pay rise and then there are some people at the top that have seen big pay rises and increases to their pensions."
The Home office report also found there was a perception that bullying and harassment were "endemic".
Independent investigator Craig Baker examined a period of six years from 2011.
He said the authority had "not exercised appropriate levels of scrutiny for some time" which led to "expensive mistakes" being made.
Councillor Davies, an independent at North Somerset Council and Chair of Avon Fire Authority, said: "Mistakes have been made in the past and they cannot be ignored.
"The biggest frustration to me is that in the past, when our budgets were not as squeezed as they are today, money was wasted.
"Now is the time for the members of Avon Fire Authority to work together and show the leadership which has been lacking in the past." | Avon and Somerset's Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens is considering a takeover of the area's fire service after it was criticised for having an "old boys club" culture. |
Conservative MP Ms Miller, chair of the Commons women and equalities committee, said police found it "incredibly difficult" to make current laws work.
She added it was time to get tough on social media networks too, which treat online space as the "Wild West".
The national digital policing lead said responses to victims were inconsistent.
Chief Constable Stephen Kavanagh, of Essex Police, said more officer training was needed across the board.
Mr Kavanagh said there had been "an explosion" of different types of online crime - trolling, racial homophobic abuse, sexting, revenge pornography - which were not even imaginable when he became a PC in 1985.
Yet, he said, the police were working with 30 different pieces of legislation, including the Computer Misuse Act, which is 26 years old, and another dating back to 1861.
"It's not really helping investigators, the Crown Prosecution Service or victims to bring these people to justice," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
My ordeal started in 2011. I was singled out for commenting on a Facebook page for an X Factor contestant. The abuse escalated very, very quickly, which included a fake paedophile profile made of me. They spread and shared my profile photo and name all over Facebook pages, saying I was a prostitute, a drug dealer, a paedophile. Obviously the other users were reacting to this.
The report system to Facebook did not work. My family, friends and I constantly were reporting escalating abuse to Facebook. After about four days, I realised I needed expert help so I contacted the police and a law firm. I was told to print out all the screenshots, which I did.
I took over 200 screenshots into my local police. It was awful. I was in there less than 15 minutes. They would not look at the evidence. They said because it happened on Facebook, it was not a police matter, no crime had been committed. And they told me to close down my Facebook account.
Mr Kavanagh said victims turning up at a police front counter or ringing the station were getting inconsistent responses because of the variety of legislation, and because of how quickly things were moving. This, he said, was undermining victims' confidence.
Ms Miller said a review of online abuse law was vital - similar to what had been done on revenge pornography a year ago.
"As a result of a campaign that I was leading, we've put in place a new law that partly recognises the posting of sexual images online in order to cause distress. If we can have a set of laws which pick up on online crime, that will enable the police to do more."
She added that a clearer framework for operators was also needed because "at the moment, they are allowing criminal activity, whether on Facebook or Twitter or any other platforms, to go unchecked".
She called for them to enable people to report offences "more readily" and ensure action was taken.
"There have to be consequences and, at the moment, there aren't," she said.
A spokesman for Facebook said the company worked with safety experts and took feedback from users to combat the "small minority of people... intent on harassing others online".
New tools were being developed including an impersonation alert which "flags if another account is pretending to be you", he said.
Facebook has said no government, charity, parent or company could make the internet a "safe" place, but they could work together to "educate and empower" people.
Facebook and Google are currently hosting the first joint EU child safety summit in Dublin.
Charlotte Holloway, head of policy at techUK which represents 900 UK technology companies, said the industry took its responsibilities to keep users safe and secure online "very seriously".
Existing legislation was "fit for purpose", she said, and the focus should be on ensuring the police and prosecutors have the right skills and resources to bring perpetrators to justice.
The call for a review of the law came to light in a Guardian newspaper series considering The web we want, which explored the darker side of online comments and efforts to bring about better conversations online. | A review of laws surrounding the "significantly increasing" problem of online abuse is urgently needed, former culture secretary Maria Miller says. |
The 33-year-old Spain international was a surprise omission from the pre-season squad currently touring the US.
"He doesn't follow my philosophy. There is no place for someone like that," said Van Gaal of his January signing.
United's number one David De Gea, 24, has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer.
Valdes posted a cryptic tweet on Thursday, containing a picture of the three under-21 games he played in along with the caption: ".....? #Respect".
That came after he had said on Twitter on Tuesday: "After a hard training session this morning I am working hard for this season! Come on you Reds."
Meanwhile, Van Gaal also told a news conference in Seattle how he told striker Robin van Persie he had no future at Old Trafford after a round of golf at the end of last season.
And he was unconvincing when asked about the futures of club record signing Angel Di Maria and De Gea.
The Old Trafford club will not consider selling De Gea, whose contract expires in 2016, unless they receive a record fee for a goalkeeper.
Asked about De Gea's situation, Van Gaal added: "I cannot say anything. His attitude is fantastic. It is stupid to ask."
However, he did admit that a move for another experienced goalkeeper was "dependent on David De Gea".
Valdes, who won La Liga six times with Barcelona, joined United as De Gea's back-up after recovering from major knee surgery.

After new signings Bastian Schweinsteiger, Morgan Schneiderlin and Matteo Darmian faced questions from the media, Van Gaal responded to questions about Valdes' absence.
He said: "Last year, he refused to play in the second team and there are other aspects you need as a keeper at United.
"When you are not willing to follow those principles, there is only one way and that is out.
"It is a big disappointment. It is a pity because we have given him the opportunity to rehabilitate, gave him a contract and then he is fit to play."
Valdes, whose contract expires in 2016, played gainst Liverpool in January, Chelsea in February and Spurs in March for United's under-21 sides.
His only first-team start was in United's final game of last season, and Van Gaal added: "I played him at Hull because I wanted to help. I am always a very social human being."
Van Persie has left United for Turkey's Fenerbahce after three seasons at Old Trafford. Explaining the decision to let the 31-year-old Netherlands international leave, Van Gaal said: "He knew already what was coming from the day we played golf.
"After we played golf, we talked about the perspective for him at Manchester United. I think he did a very good choice."
Van Gaal was also asked whether midfielder Di Maria would be staying at Old Trafford after speculation the record £59.7m signing is unsettled in Manchester and will join French champions Paris St-Germain.
"No idea," said the Dutchman. "We shall see. Now he is still a member of Manchester United."
United have made it clear throughout the summer that they would only let De Gea go if Real Madrid offer in excess of the £32.6m Juventus paid Parma for Gianluigi Buffon in 2001.
Real are unwilling to pay that much for a player they could sign for nothing when his contract expires in 2016. Indeed, so far, they have yet to make a bid for the former Atletico Madrid player.
It it also understood United would be willing to let De Gea go if long-serving Real defender Sergio Ramos went the other way. It was felt Ramos wanted to move, but Real rejected United's only offer so far of £28.6m.
The Red Devils are prepared to offer De Gea about £175,000 a week to stay - understood to be more than double his current wages.
On Monday, Ramos flew to Australia with Real, having apparently been named captain by new manager Rafael Benitez.
This is where it gets interesting. Real have just sold long-serving captain Iker Casillas to Porto.
Of the three goalkeepers they have taken to Australia, Ruben Yanez is a 21-year-old who has never played a first-team game while Pacheco is two years older and has played one cup game.
That means Keylor Navas is Real's only senior goalkeeper, and he has just recovered from an Achilles injury that kept him out of Costa Rica's Gold Cup campaign.
United were better off, but not much now Van Gaal has announced Valdes will leave the club.
In addition to De Gea, Van Gaal has taken Anders Lindegaard, whom he did not pick once last season and is in the final year of his contract, and Sam Johnstone, a loan target for Preston, where he spent the second half of last year, to the United States.
Neither of those two are viewed as having a meaningful role to play in the coming campaign.
Spanish sports paper Marca said recently that United were being "stubborn" in their negotiations, and that the deal to sign De Gea was "stuck in a rut".
United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has proved himself to be a tough negotiator. His stance remains that to get De Gea, Real must sell Ramos.
As the days tick by, that scenario has looked less likely.
De Gea is not willing to hand in a transfer request and is content to see out the final year of his contract before completing the move that would take him back to his Madrid-based girlfriend, Eurovision singer Edurne Garcia.
When Valdes leaves - there has been interest from Turkey and also an unlikely link to Real Madrid - Van Gaal needs a keeper, whether De Gea stays or not.
United had been heavily linked with Hugo Lloris, but the Tottenham keeper could miss the start of the season after fracturing his wrist. Elsewhere, Asmir Begovic, has signed for Chelsea to replace Petr Cech - Arsenal's latest goalkeeper.
The Red Devils are in discussions with free agent Sergio Romero after the 28-year-old Argentina international left Sampdoria last month.
And a deal for Ajax's Jasper Cillessen - who started every match for Van Gaal's Netherlands team at the 2014 World Cup - has also been suggested. But given the Valdes situation, is it possible Cillessen or Romero could be signed as a number two goalkeeper, rather than a number one?

Van Gaal was repeatedly asked about De Gea's future at the club as the season drew to an end, when the Spaniard collected the club's player and young player of the season awards.
At one point, the Dutchman claimed it was "not easy to choose" between United and Madrid, saying: "David De Gea shall not leave us so easily because we are a great club."
A week later, Van Gaal insisted: "I believe still that David De Gea shall stay."
It all adds up to a rather confused situation, with a few twists to come before the transfer window closes on 1 September.

The bird became entangled in the twine which was stuck on a nest in a remote area above Staylittle, near Llanbrynmair, in Powys.
A rope rescue team cut it free.
RSPCA inspector Phil Lewis said: "The twine was attached to the bird's leg which restricted movement. The bird's mate had been coming back and forth feeding it."
He said fellow inspector Andy Broadbent had abseiled onto a small ledge to cut the raven free.
"As soon as he cut the twine, the bird flew and went into a pine tree unharmed," he added.
He said it was not known if the raven had brought the twine back to the nest itself, or if it was the result of littering.
But the RSPCA issued a warning about the dangers of littering to wild birds and animals.
It said twine or fishing line can wrap around necks, causing deep wounds in flesh and cutting off the blood supply; hooks can pierce beaks or become embedded in skin; and litter like weights can also be swallowed, causing internal injuries and blockages. | A raven entangled in baling twine has been rescued from a 60ft (18m) cliff face in mid Wales. |
Ms Cafferkey remains in a serious condition after being readmitted to the Royal Free Hospital in London last week.
She underwent a month of treatment at the same hospital in January.
Health officials said 40 of the 58 people identified had been offered vaccinations.
They were thought to have potentially had contact with Ms Cafferkey's bodily fluids.
Of these, 25 have now been vaccinated, with the remaining 15 either declining to be vaccinated or unable to receive it due to other medical conditions.
The close contacts of Ms Cafferkey were said to be a mixture of healthcare workers, her family, friends and community contacts.
A statement released by the health board said: "All 58 close contacts are being closely monitored. This includes a period of 21 days since their last exposure where they will have their temperature taken twice daily, restrictions placed on travel and, in the case of healthcare workers they have been asked not to have direct patient contact during this period.
"The 25 who were vaccinated will undergo additional monitoring because the vaccine is still being evaluated.
"It is important to stress once again that there is no risk to the general public. Ebola is not spread through ordinary social contact, such as shaking hands or sitting next to someone. Nor is it spread through airborne particles."
The rVSV-ZEBOV vaccine offered to close contacts of Ms Cafferkey is currently being trialled in collaboration with the World Health Organisation and has been tested in more than 7,000 people during the recent outbreak of Ebola virus infection in Guinea.
It is an unlicensed vaccine, which is currently being trialled.
Ms Cafferkey was flown in a military aircraft to the specialist infectious diseases unit at the Royal Free last week.
She had earlier been admitted to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow after feeling unwell.
Subsequent tests showed that the Ebola virus was still present in her body.
Ms Cafferkey had contracted Ebola while working as a volunteer with Save the Children at a treatment centre in Kerry Town, in Sierra Leone.
She was diagnosed on 29 December last year, after returning to Glasgow via London, and was treated at the Royal Free.
At the time of her release from the hospital, Dr Michael Jacobs, who had been helping to treat her, said Ms Cafferkey had completely recovered and was "not infectious in any way". | A total of 58 people who had been in close contact with Scottish nurse Pauline Cafferkey, who contracted Ebola in Sierra Leone, have been identified. |

The 21-year-old east Londoner scored seven goals in 41 appearances on loan at Hull City last season, helping them to promotion to the Premier League.
But he has only played once for Arsenal this term, a 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the EFL Cup in September.
"We fought off competition from other clubs to sign Chuba," said boss Chris Hughton, whose side top the table.

The hosts led when Chris Lowe drilled in from the spot after the defender was brought down in the box by Floyd Ayite.
But in a five-minute spell Scott Malone levelled from a tight angle and Tom Cairney's penalty put Fulham ahead.
Stefan Johansen fired in a rebound to make it 3-1 and the Norwegian robbed Jonathan Hogg to complete the scoring.
A win for Huddersfield would have sealed their play-off place but they remain five points clear of seventh-placed Leeds, who were beaten at Burton.
Fulham, the Championship's top scorers, also benefitted from Leeds' slip-up as Slavisa Jokanovic's side now have a three-point buffer in sixth.
Ayite, who conceded a penalty for the opener, won the spot-kick which put the Cottagers in front as he was felled by Hogg.
A less eventful second half saw Rajiv van La Parra curl wide for the Terriers, while Collin Quaner was denied by Marcus Bettinelli when through one-on-one.
David Wagner's side have now gone 11 games against Fulham without winning, while seven of Huddersfield's 13 league defeats have come against sides currently occupying the top six.
Huddersfield Town head coach David Wagner: "It's still in our own hands and we have three games left. We have shown unbelievable consistency all season and we have been in the top six virtually the whole season. In my opinion we have been the most consistent team in this division so far.
"Fulham are a great side and deserved their win but we played a big part with the errors we made. Defeat hurts, of course, but I have been able to trust the players who made mistakes over the whole season and we move on.
"The start we made probably cost us as we lost focus and concentration and against a team like Fulham you need to focus. To move on you have to know why you lost and we know why we lost."
Fulham head coach Slavisa Jokanovic: "I am very happy at how we are at this time. We are solid and this is important for us. To win 4-1 is a great result but perhaps I miss the clean sheet.
"The team showed great character and confidence and we were very brave. We scored four goals but it could have been more. Our standards are improving and this is exactly what we have to do.
"I am not looking at the table. I am only thinking about the next game. Now we need to rest and concentrate on the regular part of this competition."

The pair were among at least 28 people abducted from a desert hunting party close to the Saudi border in December.
Efforts are still under way to free the rest of the 26 kidnapped, the ministry said in a statement.
It is not known if any ransom was paid for the release of the two men who were freed on Wednesday.
The hostages were abducted when gunmen attacked their camp, officials say. The attackers were driving dozens of four-wheel drive vehicles when they swept into the camp at dawn.
They struck near Layyah, 190km (118 miles) from the regional capital, Samawa. The remote area is highly tribal in nature and a Shia region.
Nine members of the party managed to escape and cross into nearby Kuwait.
The Shia Muslim political parties which dominate the Iraqi government are highly critical of Qatar's role in supporting Sunni Muslim rebels in Syria
The hunting party was in Iraq on an officially licensed expedition and Doha has put pressure on the Shia-led government in Baghdad to help secure the hostages' release.
The hunters' prey was the Asian houbara bustard, akin to a small turkey. To find it and other similar species, Gulf hunters often travel to Morocco, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
They take with them their prized falcons, typically peregrines, sakers and lanners, which are expertly trained to home in on their quarry at high speed.
Other Gulf hunting expeditions have even extended as far as the Central African Republic in search of big game.
More than 12 years after the US-led invasion and occupation, Iraq is still plagued by violent crime and militant attacks.
Falconry was an important skill for Bedouin hunters in the harsh deserts of Arabia and Syria, and has been around for thousands of years.
But the Asian houbara bustard (or MacQueen's bustard) - a likely target of the kidnapped hunters - only came to prominence as a favoured prey in the 1970s, when lavish hunting trips became popular, and when the availability of four-wheel-drives and guns prompted a sudden decline in the species, which is now threatened.
The bird's popularity may be partly explained by its elegant plumage and because some consider its meat to be an aphrodisiac.
Arabs' pursuit of the Asian houbara has caused tension elsewhere. There has been growing hostility in Pakistan, where Gulf Arab hunting parties are granted permission to bring in falcons to hunt the Asian houbara despite a ban on locals hunting.

The World Economic Forum said that employees should continue working until 70 in nations such as the UK, US, Japan and Canada.
The increase will be needed, as the number of people over 65 will more than triple to 2.1 billion by 2050.
By then, the number of workers per retiree will have halved to just four.
Michael Drexler, head of financial and infrastructure systems at the World Economic Forum, said the expected rise in longevity was the financial equivalent of climate change.
"We must address it now or accept that its adverse consequences will haunt future generations, putting an impossible strain on our children and grandchildren," he said.
In the UK the state pension age is due to rise from 65 in 2018 to 68 by 2046.
A report for the Department for Work and Pensions earlier this year has suggested that workers under 30 may not get a state pension until they are 70.
The Forum's report, We'll Live to 100 - How Can We Afford It, said that governments need to make it easier for workers to save for their retirement and praised recent reforms in the UK.
The auto-enrolment scheme means more than six million British workers have now been signed up automatically to a pension savings scheme, but fears remain over how much is being set aside.
The WEF said the retirement savings gap was forecast to rise from $70tn to $400tn by 2050 in the eight countries studied: Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, Netherlands, the UK and the US.
The gap is the amount of money required in each country to ensure a retirement income equal to 70% of a person's pre-retirement income.
Jacques Goulet, president of health and Wealth at Mercer, which worked with the Forum to produce the report, said the issue was at a crisis point.
"There is no one 'silver bullet' solution to solve the retirement gap. Individuals need to increase their personal savings and financial literacy, while the private sector and governments should provide programmes to support them," he said.
The Forum also says that countries should aggregate and combine pensions data to give workers a full picture of their financial position.
It cites Denmark, where an online dashboard collates pension information to give individuals details of their different pension savings accounts. | The retirement age should rise to at least 70 in rich countries by 2050 as life expectancy rises above 100, according to a new report. |
Weaknesses in outdated systems could allow attackers to make ships disappear from tracking systems - or even make it look like a large fleet was incoming.
Researchers at Trend Micro said their findings showed the danger of using legacy systems designed when security was not an issue.
But one vessel-tracking specialist said spoof attempts could be easily spotted.
Lloyd's List Intelligence's Ian Trowbridge said that in addition to the vulnerable technology - known as the Automatic Identification System (AIS) - other measures could be used to identify marine activity.
"The spoofing would immediately be identified by [Lloyd's List Intelligence] as a warp vessel," he said, "providing unexplained position reports outside of the vessel's speed/distance capability and thus subject to further investigation and validation."
The AIS system is used to track the whereabouts of ships travelling across the world's oceans.
For ships over a certain size, having AIS fitted is mandatory under international maritime law.
Small leisure boats and fishing vessels - for which it is optional - can purchase a transponder for as low as £600, making AIS significantly cheaper than alternative location systems.
It is designed to transmit data about a ship's position, as well as other relevant information, so that movements can be seen by other boats as well as relevant authorities on shore.
One other use is to alert nearby ships when a man or woman is overboard - an alert that can easily be spoofed, says Trend Micro's Rik Ferguson.
"It boils down to the fact that the protocol was never designed with security in mind," he told the BBC.
"There's no validity checking of what's being put up there."
Using equipment bought for 700 euros (£600), the researchers were able to intercept signals and make vessels appear on the tracking system, even though they did not exist.
In one example, the team was able to make it look as if a ship's route had spelled out the word "pwned" - hacker slang for "owned".
The information broadcast by AIS is public - but when the system was first put in use, in the early 1990s, the technology required to receive the information was prohibitively expensive for those not directly involved in the industry.
But now, a typical internet connection can be used to see the locations of boats, as well as an indicator of what type of cargo they may be carrying.
There has been speculation that Somali pirates have been making use of the system.
"It has long been thought that the pirates are basically using AIS as a shopping list," Mr Ferguson said, "seeing what's coming into local waters, and what cargo it may have."
However, Lloyd's List Intelligence noted that captains are permitted to disable AIS if they feel their crew could be endangered by it.

The Sussex Seniors team have sponsored cricket in Gambia for seven years and have raised up to £70,000.
This summer, they wanted to bring two players to Sussex to experience village cricket, but visas were refused.
Spokesman Andrew Shanks said he was "hopping mad". The Home Office said it did not comment on individual cases.
Mr Shanks said Sussex Seniors invited the Gambia cricket team's captain and vice-captain with all expenses and accommodation provided, and he had sponsored their applications.
But immigration officials said they believed the players had no intention of returning to Gambia and advised the team to invite two players from the EU, he said.
Mr Shanks, from Uckfield, said: "They're almost insinuating we're liars.
"They've said they don't think they are coming for cricket, they don't think they are going to be accommodated and looked after, and in all probability they have no intention of returning to Gambia.
"We just thought we would love to invite their captain and vice-captain over purely to play village cricket in Sussex for the summer - but the government has decided they can't come."
Captain Mbye Dumbuya said it was disappointing.
He said the players had wanted to visit their sponsors to develop their game and have more playing time, then return to Gambia to develop their team and their programme.
"All this was just the agenda," he said.
"There was nothing like going there and absconding. It has never been our intention." | Two cricketers from Gambia have been refused sports visas to visit Sussex this summer, sparking anger from amateur players in the county. |
Davis, 25, has made exactly 100 Championship appearances for Blues since signing from West Midlands rivals Wolves in August 2014.
He spent five years on the books as a professional at Molineux,
During that time he played 61 times, as well as being loaned out to Darlington, Walsall, Shrewsbury Town, Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Chesterfield.
Davis's new deal, tying him to St Andrew's until the summer of 2020, follows the re-signing of Craig Gardner from West Bromwich Albion, ending a busy week of activity for Blues boss Gianfranco Zola in his midfield department.
The Italian is open-minded about the future of Diego Fabbrini, who was signed by predecessor Gary Rowett from Watford in a £1.5 million deal a year ago.
Despite being brought in for only his second start of the season against Newcastle last Saturday, Fabbrini is prepared to move on in the hope of regular first-team football.
"In his mind he wants to go and maybe try somewhere else," Zola told BBC WM. "But he has a future here if he is willing to work at his game and work hard at some issues."
"I know where he could be. But I cannot do anything unless he wants to do that. Then he can be a player who, wherever he goes, he plays."
Zola is close to abandoning his plan to bring in Slovenia international Rene Krhin from La Liga side Granada.
Although Blues had agreed a £2m fee with the Spaniards, Krhin returned without signing after attending last weekend's FA Cup third-round 1-1 draw with Newcastle United.
"It's gone very quiet," said Zola. "We wanted the player, but the player is taking too much time and we need to move. We have waited more than we should.

Gregory and Elgar had come together with Somerset struggling on 80-5, but they turned the game on its head, both batting deep into the afternoon session as Middlesex's bowlers toiled under blue skies.
Elgar, who has reached 50 in eight of his past 10 innings for Division One's bottom side, was finally removed by James Franklin (2-34) as the pair fell just 16 runs short of the county's record sixth-wicket stand, set in 1961 by Bill Alley and Ken Palmer.
Gregory, who was dropped by Ollie Rayner on 31, easily surpassed his previous best first-class knock of 73, before Toby Roland-Jones had him caught at long leg by Tom Helm shortly before tea.
Davey beat the bat of Gubbins and Compton as Middlesex began their reply, but the openers saw the hosts through to the close with all wickets intact.
After also bagging his first-ever five-wicket return at Lord's in 2013, to also post his maiden Championship century there led to Gregory labelling the Home of Cricket as his lucky ground.
Lewis Gregory told BBC Radio Somerset:
"It's clearly a lucky ground for me. It's been a special day. It felt really good to do it here. I've always known the ability was there and I was capable of this.
"But I really have to give a lot of credit to Dean. He kept me calm and didn't let me get carried away with the situation.
"We weren't in a great place when I went out to bat and, at first, Dean and I just had to scrap things out.
"We just kept trucking along, took each 30 minutes as it came and went and tried to stay out there as long as we could."
Middlesex's Tom Helm told BBC Radio London:
"If you got the ball in the right areas there was a little something.
"But fair play to Lewis and Dean, they both played really well.
"That's the first time I've gone for 100 runs, which wasn't great, but overall I was fairly happy.
"It's looking like a draw from here but that's by no means definite." | Centuries from Dean Elgar and Lewis Gregory helped Somerset into a strong position against Middlesex at Lord's. |
Harry Maceachen, from Shrewsbury, was born with a rare liver disease. He received the transplant from his father Simon in March.
The pair have just spent their first Christmas together since the operation.
And nine months on, Mr Maceachen said there had been "no problems at all" after the surgery.

Harry was born with biliary atresia which meant he had blocked bile ducts.
His infectious laughter and excited energy captured hearts following a show-stealing appearance on BBC Breakfast in December last year.
Mr Maceachen was a living donor as no suitable match could be found from the organ donor register.
He said: "It took a little while to recover from the surgery. Harry bounced back a lot quicker than I did, but he's a bit younger than me so he heals a bit quicker than I do."
While in hospital, the pair wore matching gowns specially made by volunteers called the Wrap Pyjama Fairies, who make pyjamas and surgical gowns for children in hospital.
And the family spread some festive cheer by delivering gowns to youngsters at the Princess Royal Hospital in Telford.
Harry, who took part in the British Transplant Games in July, said he now feels "super better" and added that since the operation he can now "run really fast". | A five-year-old boy who was given part of his father's liver says he feels "super better" nine months after the operation. |
The British Association for Adoption and Fostering (BAAF) closed last week and is being run by administrators.
Much of its work in England will go to the Coram Group and in Scotland to St Andrew's Children's Society.
The British Association of Social Workers called the collapse "surprising.... given the extra cash pumped by government into adoption".
In a statement BAAF chief executive Caroline Selkirk said "significant changes and prevailing economic conditions" meant it had "sadly not been possible to sustain the organisation".
Matt Dunham of Smith & Williamson administrators said 55 of the charity's 134 staff had been transferred to Coram, another 29 would be kept on "to ensure smooth running" of offices in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales - but 50 would be made redundant.
"BAAF has a tremendous reputation within the adoption and fostering world, but has been affected by a perfect storm of adverse issues," said Mr Dunham.
"Our priority is to ensure continuity of service and support to protect the needs of children and their families."
A new organisation, CoramBAAF Adoption and Fostering Academy will continue BAAF's work in adoption policy research, professional advice and development as well as taking over the running of National Adoption Week and Adoption Activity Days when would-be adoptive parents meet children who have been put forward for adoption.
BAAF's role in running the National Adoption Register for England will be taken on by the First4Adoption information service - which is jointly run by Coram and Adoption UK.
"BAAF is one of several charitable collapses recently and that is grounds for concern in itself," said Maggie Mellon, British Association of Social Workers Vice Chair.
"With so much more government funding being attached to increasing the numbers of children being adopted, it is surprising that BAAF was not sustainable."
Ms Mellon suggested BAAF, a leading provider of training and consultancy services on adoption to local authorities, may have seen its income fall as local authorities slashed spending in this area in the face of public sector cuts.
She warned of a potential conflict of interest in BAAF's amalgamation with a large adoption agency like Coram Group.
BAAF's independent expertise on adoption had been "very necessary" in the face of government policy promoting adoption over efforts to prevent family breakdown or placing children with birth relatives such as grandparents, she said.
"BAAF also did not forget that birth parents' and families' needs have to be recognised and met. We hope this integrity will not be lost in the formation of the new organisation."
Coram's chief executive Dr Carol Homden, said the new organisation would be "a sustainable way forward which enables the expertise of two organisations renowned for their work with looked-after children to be shared, to create better chances for children".
BAAF's annual report shows it had an income of £8.7m in the year to March 2014, including government grants of just over £1m, but had a total expenditure of some £8.95m.
In 2013 the charity's income was slightly higher at just under £9m and its expenditure lower, at £7.9m.
The same document also shows a trebling of BAAF's net liabilities, including pensions from £730,978 in 2013 to £2.3m a year later.
Expenditure rose particularly sharply on child placement and fostering, from just under £2.7m to just over £3.4m - a rise of more than £700,000.
The accounts also show the charity received £35,000 in donations last year, compared with nearly £647,000 the year before, | A leading adoption charity has collapsed suddenly, after facing "a perfect storm of adverse conditions". |
Monday's attack is believed to have been carried out by Ms Leonard's former partner, whose body was also found at her County Fermanagh house.
The funeral of Ms Leonard, 51, has taken place in Brookeborough.
Her son Conor, who has Down's syndrome, is thought to have summoned help via an alert system installed in their home.
He had been stabbed in the stomach, and was taken to hospital where he received stitches for his wounds.
Fr Lawrence Dawson described the 30-year-old as "very courageous", and explained how he had pressed an alarm button that summoned the emergency services to the scene within minutes.
Children with whom Connie Leonard had shared her love of music helped form a guard of honour as her coffin arrived at the little church of St. Mary's in Brookeborough.
They comforted each other as some wept.
Music for the Mass came from groups Ms Leonard had worked with, as a three-time All-Ireland medal winner in accordion and piano.
She was described as a great mother, musician and cook, whose energy and enthusiasm inspired those around her.
At the end of the service, outside the church, her son Conor waved goodbye to her coffin as it began its final journey.
In his funeral homily at St Mary's Church on Friday, parish priest Fr Brendan Gallagher said Conor Leonard "is our future and our reason to hope".
"Thankfully he survived the ordeal of Monday, because he is the one who will lead us all on the journey of recovery," he told mourners.
"His love and his affection will be a source of healing for all, he is the light that will renew the spirit of hope in our lives."
Fr Gallagher said Ms Leonard had suffered a horrific death.
He said people would be asking why such a terrible thing would happen to such a beautiful person.
"But we know that Connie would not want family or friends, thinking or feeling that way. Because for her, she had Conor with her, and that was the most important person she wanted with her at that moment," he said.
"The circumstances and the tragedy of Connie's death, cannot destroy the love that was in her heart and soul. The love that all of you, family and friends, received from her."
The funeral of suspect Peadar Phair, who reportedly hanged himself after the attack, took place on Thursday and Fr Dawson said his family were finding it very difficult to come to terms with the tragedy.
Ms Leonard had applied for a non-molestation order on Phair.
She was murdered a day before a court hearing had been due to take place in Enniskillen, in relation to the order.
Police are treating the attack on Conor Leonard as attempted murder.
They are not looking for anyone else in connection with the stabbing.
Ms Leonard was well-known from her involvement with the Irish music organisation Comhaltas.
She also ran a catering business in Lisnaskea, County Fermanagh. | The injured son of murder victim Concepta Leonard has been praised for his courage in the moments after he and his mother were stabbed at their home. |
The 26-year-old, who had a year left on his contract, was also a target for the Potters' Premier League rivals Swansea, whom he left to join Liverpool in 2012.
"It's been a whirlwind 48 hours for me but I am delighted to have finally been able to put pen to paper," said Allen, who has signed a five-year contract.
"I was really excited as soon as I heard of the club's interest and it wasn't a difficult decision to make."
Allen was Stoke's second signing of the day after Egyptian winger Ramadan Sobhi joined the club from Al Ahly for a fee that could rise to £5m.
Despite starting only eight league games for Liverpool last season, Allen was named in the Euro 2016 team of the tournament after helping Wales reach the semi-finals.
Liverpool rejected an £8m offer from Swansea in June but Allen will now link up with Stoke's Welsh manager Mark Hughes.
"Joe is a player that Mark has admired for a considerable amount of time," said the club's chief executive Tony Scholes.
"We have had to act swiftly to conclude the deal but we are delighted that we have managed to get it over the line." | Stoke City have signed Wales midfielder Joe Allen from Liverpool for £13m. |
Gatland wants "rugby to do the talking" when the tourists meet the All Blacks in Auckland (08:35 BST kick-off).
The New Zealander, who on Thursday named his team for the game, did say he was happy to be "getting up the nose" of All Blacks counterpart Steve Hansen.
But he added: "It's not about me - this is about the Lions."
Hansen has criticised the Lions' style of play and suggested last week that morale in the tourists' camp could be damaged by Gatland adding six players to his squad.
But speaking on Thursday, he said: "It's not about the coach. Well, it shouldn't be.
"It's got to be about the team and what you're trying to do as a team, and what you're trying to build."

Ireland flanker Peter O'Mahony will skipper the Lions at Eden Park after impressing in the back row in the final tour game against Maori All Blacks. Tour captain Sam Warburton is among the replacements.
Welshman Liam Williams and England's Elliot Daly are surprise inclusions in the back three, alongside another Englishman, Anthony Watson.
England's Maro Itoje misses out to former Lions skipper Alun Wyn Jones in the second row.
Kieran Read has been named as All Blacks skipper after returning from injury.
Gatland said: "We know it's going to be a tough encounter. Let's let the rugby do the talking because there's been enough trash talking already.
"Let's get excited about what could be a fantastic series. A couple of sideline things have taken the focus away from that."
The first of the three Tests between the sides takes place at a venue at which the All Blacks are undefeated in 23 years.
But Gatland said his side must take confidence from their victories over the Crusaders and the Maori All Blacks.
"We squeezed the life out of those two teams and we won't stop being aggressive defensively," he said.
"To play against the All Blacks you've got to have a strong set-piece, you need a platform to be able to work off to start with.
"I think we've played some lovely rugby. We struggled at the start of the tour, but we've outscored opponents nine tries to three in the last four games."
The second Test takes place in Wellington on Saturday, 1 July, before the teams return to Eden Park on Saturday, 8 July.
New Zealand: B Smith; I Dagg, R Crotty, SB Williams, R Ioane; B Barrett, A Smith; J Moody, C Taylor, O Franks, B Retallick, S Whitelock, J Kaino, S Cane, K Read (capt).

Chris Jones, BBC radio 5 live rugby correspondent
By his own admission, tour captain Sam Warburton hasn't been at his best yet in New Zealand, but not selecting the skipper is still a headline decision from Gatland. It has seldom been done before.
O'Mahony, Sean O'Brien and Taulupe Faletau formed a balanced and imposing back-row unit in the wins over the Crusaders and the Maori All Blacks and their selection is a sensible call.
Elsewhere, the coach has rolled the dice. Itoje was a force of nature against the Maori, but he has been consigned to the bench with the experienced Jones given the nod alongside George Kruis in the second row.
Jones' pedigree cannot be questioned. He led the Lions to a series win in Australia in 2013, and is an inspirational figure. But Itoje is the form man, and the Lions coaches would surely have been tempted to unleash the Saracen from the start. He will surely be tasked with making a major impact off the bench.
Gatland is not adverse to throwing selectorial curve balls, but the make-up of his back three is startling. It had been widely expected the Kiwi would opt for his tried-and-tested Welshmen - George North and Leigh Halfpenny - but instead Williams and Daly join Watson.
These inclusions have been made on recent form. Both excelled in the win over the Chiefs in Hamilton in midweek and have made late charges into the Test team. These selections have sent a clear message to the wider squad: perform, and you will be picked.
It means no place in the 23 for North, and while Jones has perhaps been selected on reputation, the opposite is the case here. While this puts paid to the theory that Gatland is risk-averse, it also shows that he is aware that to beat the All Blacks, the Lions must pose an attacking threat to ally with their suffocating defence and dominant set-piece.
Gatland knows playing it safe at Eden Park won't be enough. | British and Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland says he wants to end the "trash talk" in the build-up to Saturday's first Test against New Zealand. |
There has been speculation the Malaysian businessman is pursuing offers for the Welsh club he bought in 2010.
But reacting after reports re-emerged that he was seeking to off-load the Bluebirds, Tan has reiterated he will only sell at the right price.
Asked if he was looking to sell, Tan said: "No, I always say this.
"You don't fall in love with your businesses. If somebody offers the right price, yeah we'll sell.
"People approach us and we have a look, we talk. But that doesn't mean we're selling.
"If the right offer comes, an offer we can't refuse, sure we'll sell. It's business."
Tan watched from the stands as Cardiff beat Aston Villa 3-0 on Saturday to go top of the Championship table after two games of the season.
He had not been to any home games in the previous two campaigns, fuelling rumours he was losing interest in the club.
Speculation that he was actively looking to sell the club intensified in July when reports highlighted a brochure for prospective buyers put together by WMG, a company belonging to Cardiff chairman Mehmet Dalman.
However, Tan says he is committed to Cardiff and watched the win over Villa at Cardiff City Stadium, which saw an attendance of 23,899 for the game.
He received a warm welcome from supporters, though his tenure has been controversial.
The decision to change the team's home colours from its traditional blue to red led to a fans revolt, but Tan financed the club's promotion to the Premier League in 2013, albeit for only one season.
Tan agreed to a return to blue shirts in 2015 and, after three campaigns of mid-table mediocrity in the Championship, he is hopeful manager Neil Warnock can help the club mount another promotion challenge this term.
"We have a good manager, he has made some good transfers," said Tan.
"We supported him with the transfers, but we have paid good value for money - not like the way we paid £10.5m for [Andreas] Cornelius [a striker signed by former manager Malky Mackay].
"Oh I will never forget that.
"We have paid good value for these transfers. Neil has done a great job. They are reasonable transfers with support." | Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan insists he is not actively looking to sell the Championship club. |
Either way, the annual Belfast City Marathon is coming and whether you're getting your running kit prepped for the occasion or preparing to escape the city we have everything you need to know right here.
The marathon has become a May bank holiday institution and is due to be just as popular this year with thousands of participants and spectators expected on Belfast's streets.
So take a deep breath, get those energy gel things at the ready and get on the starting blocks.
This year is the 36th edition of the Belfast City Marathon - back in 1982, when the race started, Northern Ireland's locals were more likely to travel by space hopper than run 26 miles and former Ulster Unionist leader Mike Nesbitt rocked the best moustache this side of Magnum PI.
This year about 15,500 - more than the population of Banbridge - are hitting the road for the marathon and associated events, including the team relay, marathon walk, wheelchair marathon and fun-run.
If you're one of the thousands gearing up for 26-and-a-bit miles of pure Belfast road, then here's what you need to know.
The race kicks off at 09:00 BST on Monday, 1 May, from Belfast City Centre and finishes in Ormeau Park.
If that sounds a little easy, runners will not be running the simple 1.65 miles distance direct from A to B.
Instead, they'll be tackling a full marathon route that not only knackers the body but also acts as sweat-drenched, whistle-stop tour of the city.
East, west, north, south - all Belfast quarters are represented in the gruelling route.
Mercifully, it's relatively flat going although organisers say miles nine through to 14 are hillier - so while you won't actually be trekking up Cavehill, you'll be skirting its lower slopes. That could be the section that many runners hit the dreaded wall.
Want to get a sneak peak of the route? Then check out our two-minute time-lapse video.
OK, so our grandparents may have told stories about running two-hour marathons after an Ulster fry breakfast and a night on the stout, but remember - those born before 1955 are both four times tougher than you and 10 times more likely to exaggerate.
So rest up, eat right and drink as much water as possible along the way. If it's helpful, just think of Alec Baldwin giving you the Glengarry Glen Ross treatment: "ABDW - always be drinking water."
The route will have 12 water stations as well as nutrition, energy drinks and energy gels for keeping those legs going. So fuel up, you'll need it.
Maybe you're not taking on the race but you want to cheer on those brave souls putting their limbs on the line.
If so, you'll want to get yourself a prime pavement position. The start and finish lines - at City Hall and in Ormeau Park respectively - are sure to be popular, with a fun fair, food vans and entertainment on site at the finish.
There will be no parking allowed at Ormeau Park, so your best bet might be to hop on one of the free park and ride services being offered from Belfast City Centre - they leave from Ormeau Avenue and Cromac Street between 10:00 and 16:00 approximately every 10 minutes.
Alternatively, you could always try a vantage point along the route. Check out the official event website to find out when runners will be passing by certain points in the route.
Shade runner?
As ever, the big question is whether or not the marathon will be sun-kissed or a wash-out. And the answer is - we don't entirely know just quite yet.
At the time of writing, BBC News NI's weather team was staying coy on exactly what to expect in Belfast on Monday.
While the outlook appears to be relatively dry for now, they're emphasising that things could yet change.
So pack the brolly, factor 40 and snow shoes to cover all eventualities.
Marathons do not go hand-in-hand with freely-moving traffic so expect plenty of disruption if you have plans in Belfast on Monday.
The majority of roads will stay open during the marathon but if you're driving in the town centre remember - the area around City Hall will be closed between 06:30 and 10:00.
Motorists are also told to expect disruption in the city centre until about noon; and along the Albertbridge Road, Holywood Road and Sydenham Bypass until shortly after 11:00.
Disruption can also be expected around the four changeover points for the relay event - at Bridge End, Hillview Road, Gideon's Green and Corporation Street.
If you're due to catch a ferry from the Stena Line terminal, bear in mind that some disruption is expected around the Duncrue Road.
For full details and traffic advice, check out the marathon's website.
We'll be providing marathon coverage of the event, with Radio Ulster and BBC News NI Digital across the race from the starting gun to the finish line.
Radio Ulster will be broadcasting along the route from 07:00 to noon, with reporters at City Hall, the relay changeover points and Ormeau Park.
On the digital side, we'll have a special live page with pictures, video, reports and live streaming, as well as Facebook Live broadcasts speaking to those doing the real hard work - the runners themselves.
We'll also be following the fortunes of BBC News NI's own relay team as they tackle the 26-mile course.
Tune in on air or online from 07:00 on Monday. | Marathon - just reading the word will either make you want to grab your runners or simply run away. |
Willie Walsh said the Scottish government recognised the "huge impact" air passenger duty had on the economy.
The Scottish government has pledged to reduce, then possibly abolish, the duty after a "Yes" vote in the referendum.
The pro-Union Better Together campaign said the "tax on holidays" was not the "strongest argument" for independence.
Mr Walsh's comments come after Standard Life announced it had drawn up contingency plans around independence, including the possibility of moving some of its operations out of Scotland.
By James CookScotland Correspondent, BBC News
Few companies embody Britishness like the flag carrier of the United Kingdom.
From its name to its red, white and blue insignia, British Airways feels resolutely unionist.
It was founded in 1924 as Imperial Airways, boasting that it was the government's "chosen instrument of air travel".
But such history and sentimentality do not appear to matter much to the man who now runs BA's parent company, Willie Walsh.
His suggestion that the skies would be brighter for business in an independent Scotland comes as soothing music (Lakme's Flower Duet, presumably) to the ears of campaigners for independence.
They have not relished the past few weeks as first the boss of BP and then Scottish financial giants RBS and Standard Life raised concerns about the impact of a "Yes" vote.
If the "Yes" campaign is going to win the battle for business it could do with a few more firms of BA's stature flying by its side.
The pensions and investments giant, which is based in Edinburgh, said it had concerns over a number of issues related to independence, including the currency and the tax regime.
On Friday, BA's owner IAG posted a profit of 527m euros (£433m) in 2013, compared with losses of 613m euros the previous year.
Interviewed on BBC Breakfast, group chief executive Willie Walsh was asked whether the airline was also making contingency plans for independence.
He answered: "No, because we'll continue to fly to Scotland.
"If anything, it might be marginally positive because I suspect the Scottish government will abolish air passenger duty, because they recognise the huge impact that that tax has on their economy.
"So no, it's probably going to be a positive development, if it does happen, for British Airways."
The company employs about 1,300 staff in Scotland, including aircraft engineers and cabin crew.
Mr Walsh has previously criticised the UK government, saying that its policies have discouraged tourism and foreign investment.
In its White Paper on independence, the Scottish government said air passenger duty (APD) would cost Scotland "more than £200m a year" in lost tourism expenditure.
It said an independent Scotland would reduce APD by 50% in the first instance, with the complete abolition of the tax "when public finances allow", in a bid to make Scottish airports more competitive.
Scottish Transport Minister Keith Brown welcomed Mr Walsh's intervention, saying it recognised that Scotland was being "penalised" by Westminster policy.
He added: "Willie Walsh can clearly see the opportunities of independence. A boost to tourism and travel in Scotland will have a positive impact on growth.
"Mr Walsh's comments further underline the UK government's duty to engage properly with the issues of the independence debate.
"Instead, the self-styled 'Project Fear' are intent on wasting time engaging in their 'dambuster' strategy of scaremongering and attempting to bully people in Scotland to vote 'No'."
However, the pro-Union Better Together campaign said APD was not the "strongest argument" for independence, and that jobs would be lost if Scotland voted "Yes".
A spokesman said: "Breaking up the most successful economic, political and social union in history for the sake of a tax on holidays doesn't seem like the strongest argument.
"As the intervention from Standard Life made abundantly clear, leaving the UK would cost jobs here in Scotland.
"Alex Salmond's failure to tell us what will replace the pound means companies like Standard Life and RBS, which employ thousands of people in Scotland, have warned about the big risks involved in going it alone."
Speaking on BBC Radio Scotland's Newsdrive programme, Michael O'Leary, chief executive of Ryanair, said he supported the position of the Scottish government in relation to the abolition of APD which he said "has done untold damage to Scottish tourism and particularly to traffic on domestic routes to and from Scotland".
He added: "It's not a narrow or small issue. Traffic in Scotland has declined in the past five years since travel tax has been imposed."
But Mr O'Leary said he didn't want to get involved in the debate about Scottish independence.
He said: "Speaking as an Irishman, that's a matter for the Scottish people. But certainly, if the air travel tax were repealed by the UK government or an independent Scottish government, you'd see visitors to Scotland double over a five to ten year period."
Elsewhere, the body which represents engineering firms in Scotland has told the BBC that its members have "major concerns" about the impact of independence.
Engineering Scotland chief executive Bryan Buchan said the currency, tax rates and EU membership were the main areas of concern.
He said some big firms had drawing up contingency plans, although none had threatened to move operations from Scotland to England.
"We are seeing activity and we are, as a body, participating in assisting companies [with] contingency planning, particularly those which are foreign owned, where the parent is seeking to establish the landscape the business is operating in," he added.
A Scottish government spokesman insisted Scotland would keep the pound after independence, as part of a formal currency union.
He added: "An independent Scotland will continue in EU membership, and the only threat to that is Westminster's proposed in/out referendum which risks taking Scotland out of the EU against its will, with huge consequences for jobs, investment and prosperity." | Scottish independence could be a "positive development" for British Airways, according to the boss of the company which owns the airline. |
Local Orange Order lodges marched past the Ardoyne shops in north Belfast early on Saturday morning.
Loyalists are now due to dismantle their protest camp at Twaddell Avenue. It was set up in July 2013 after the Parades Commission ruled Orangemen could not walk along the route .
600 police officers were involved in the security operation.
The Orange Order were allowed to march along the route after an agreement between Orangemen and the nationalist residents' association the Crumlin Ardoyne Residents Association (Cara).
Several dozen protesters from the Greater Ardoyne Residents Collective (Garc), who reject that deal, gathered at the Ardoyne shops as the parade got underway.
They chanted "walk of shame" but dispersed peacefully after the march passed.

Wagner sprinted to join his players in celebrating their late winner on 5 February before clashing with Monk.
He will be in the stands for the FA Cup replay at Manchester City and the home Championship game against Newcastle.
Monk has been given a one-match touchline ban and fined £3,000, while both clubs have been fined £10,000.
The Leeds boss, whose side are fourth in the Championship table, will serve his ban at Birmingham City on Saturday.
In a statement, the FA said Wagner admitted breaking the rules by going onto the pitch but had "denied a further breach that his behaviour upon his return to the vicinity of the technical area amounted to improper conduct".
The Terriers held Premier League Manchester City 0-0 in the FA Cup fifth round earlier this month and travel to Etihad Stadium on Wednesday for the replay.
They are currently third in the Championship table, four points ahead of Leeds and five points behind second-placed Newcastle, who travel to leaders Brighton on Tuesday. | Huddersfield boss David Wagner has been given a two-match touchline ban and a £6,000 fine after his altercation with Leeds counterpart Garry Monk. |
The plan is to connect the grids using 138km of overhead lines between County Meath and County Tyrone.
The project was due to have been completed by next year and now has a target date of 2019.
The regulator Jenny Pyper told the BBC's Inside Business programme it needed to be a priority for government.
"Frankly the second interconnector is a total no-brainer in terms of addressing our security supply issues and trying to make sure we have a much more efficient market," she said.
"I need to have this at the top of my agenda as does the department and the minister.
"We're interested to see how the planning debate plays out, we're confident that we'll have a way forward this year, but if there are problems, if there are serious hurdles, then I think there are serious decisions to be made." | The utility regulator has said serious decisions must be made if any more hurdles are put in the way of a new north-south electricity interconnector. |
The previous record, $525m (£352m), was set by Jurassic World in June.
The seventh instalment of the nearly 40-year-old space saga opened with a record-breaking $248m (£167m) in the US and Canada.
JJ Abrams' film has also achieved the largest four-day weekend total in British and Irish cinemas with £34m.
That sum is almost 28 times more than its nearest rival, the Tina Fey and Amy Poehler comedy Sisters with £1.2m.
The Force Awakens' takings were almost £15m more than the £19.3m that saw Jurassic World claim the record for the largest four-day weekend in the UK and Ireland earlier this year.
But it cannot claim to have had the biggest opening ever in British and Irish cinemas - a record currently held by the most recent James Bond film, Spectre.
That film's £41m first-week tally, however, was based on seven days of takings as the film opened on a Monday.
The new Star Wars film also set a new opening night record in the US and Canada.
The Force Awakens made $57m (£38.3m) on Thursday night, beating the previous record of $43.5m (£29.2m) held by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.
Analysts say the space saga could become the biggest-selling movie of all time.
The latest film returns to "a galaxy far, far away" some 30 years on from the action of 1983's Return of the Jedi.
It sees original trilogy stars Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher reprise their Han Solo and Princess Leia roles alongside younger franchise newcomers.
"Our sole focus has been creating a film that delivers that one-of-a-kind Star Wars experience, and director JJ Abrams, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and the Lucasfilm team have outdone themselves," Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn said. | Star Wars: The Force Awakens has smashed the record for the biggest box office debut weekend globally, with ticket sales of $529m (£355m). |
The firm said vehicle assembly was no longer "required" and cars would arrive "fully built ready for distribution".
MG said there would be 25 redundancies, but sales, marketing and after-sales operations would remain at the plant.
The first new MG for 16 years rolled off the production line in the West Midlands in 2011.

It marked the first large-scale production at the plant since the demise of Rover in 2005.
It will also be end of car manufacturing at the Longbridge plant - which has seen cars built there since since Herbert Austin set up in 1906., although there was a gap in production when MG shut down in 2005.
More than 400 design engineers and other staff at the SAIC Motor Technical Centre (SMTC) at the site and MG Motor employees are not affected.
"Centralising production demonstrates MG's commitment to the future, as well as its continued focus on attracting and developing the highly-skilled automotive engineering and design talent present in the UK," a spokesman for MG said.
Where possible, production staff would be moved into new roles, the spokesman added.
Two models are currently designed and made the site - MG3 and an SUV, the MG GS - and sales are increasing with the firm reporting a total year on year rise of 18%.
I think MG through Shanghai Automotive's owner have been kind of hanging on there.
They've had a flawed business model in that it was importing virtually the entire car for Longbridge with some very limited assembly, about 40 to 50 workers.
I think what has really scuppered them is the Brexit vote.
They had fundamental business problems in that they were not selling as many cars as they hoped and they had the big import costs of components.
Post Brexit though, the costs of import are much more expensive so costs are higher and there is uncertainty about the future on the trading relationships in Europe.
What they had hoped to do was use the UK as a launch pad for selling into Europe. If - big if - we are no longer part of the single market what is the point of investing there?
Matthew Cheyne, head of sales and marketing at MG Motor UK, said moving production abroad was "a necessary business decision".
Richard Burden, Labour MP for Birmingham Northfield, described the decision as "hugely disappointing and premature".
"I understand the business concerns that MG have surrounding costs of assembly at Longbridge, which have undoubtedly been aggravated by problems with the strength of the pound," he said.
"However, more discussions should have taken place to explore alternatives and options before any decisions were finalised."
He said the government was willing to meet MG to discuss options and he had hoped the announcement would not be made until further talks had been held. | MG has announced it is to stop making cars at its Longbridge plant and will be moving production to China - ending manufacturing in the UK. |
Net income for the first three months of the year was €559m, down by a half on a year earlier. Revenue rose by almost a quarter to €10.4bn.
The bank had already disclosed it had set aside the €1.5bn.
The results come just days after the bank was fined €2.3bn for trying to manipulate inter-bank lending rates.
The sharp jump in revenue to "near record levels" reflected a "strong performance across businesses and a favourable impact of foreign exchange movements", the bank said in a statement.
Revenue at the bank's asset management division was up 30% at €1.4bn, while revenue at the corporate banking arm rose 15% to €4.7bn.
The $2.5bn fine by US and UK regulators related to Deutsche's attempts to manipulate the Libor and Euribor rates. At the end of March, the bank had €4.8bn set aside in "litigation reserves".
It is a record penalty for such misconduct because Deutsche tried to mislead regulators. The bank said it "deeply regretted" the matter.
Deutsche said it had "disciplined or dismissed individuals" involved and tightened governance controls. However, US regulators are demanding the dismissal of more senior management. | Deutsche Bank has reported a sharp fall in profits after setting aside €1.5bn ($1.6bn; £1.1bn) to cover legal costs and regulatory fines. |
The FA is also expected to contact the Hammers about the events in the stands at their new London Stadium home.
West Ham promised a "zero tolerance" approach to any fans found guilty and said they would be banned for life.
"We will request courts serve banning orders to prevent these individuals attending any football," the club said.
West Ham's first season at the London Stadium in Stratford, formerly the Olympic Stadium, has been marred by unsavoury incidents involving their fans at the last three matches, with criticisms being made over stewarding and segregation arrangements.
At the first league match at the venue - against Bournemouth last month - some fans arrived with tickets for seats that did not exist, while fighting broke out between rival supporters outside the stadium.
Some of the disturbances are believed to be over persistent standing during matches, with some fans ejected at the Watford match, which West Ham lost 4-2.
Before the game, West Ham co-chairman David Gold tweeted that the club was "trying to achieve harmony" between fans who want to sit and those who wanted "to stand and increase [the stadium's capacity] to 66,000".
On Sunday he wrote: "I want to assure everyone that the club is working flat out to solve the sitting/standing issue." | The Football Association will assess reports of crowd trouble at West Ham's match with Watford on Saturday before deciding if further action is required. |
The Briton, 28, has admitted taking cocaine to deal with depression and could also lose his boxing licence on Thursday.
He has not fought since beating Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015 and has twice withdrawn from rematches.
"I now enter another big challenge in my life which I know, like against Klitschko, I will conquer," Fury said.
He said it was "for the good boxing" and "only fair and right" to give up his belts.
"I won the titles in the ring and I believe that they should be lost in the ring, but I'm unable to defend at this time and I have taken the hard and emotional decision to now officially vacate my treasured world titles," he said.
In a statement, Fury's promoter Hennessy Sports said the decision would "allow him the time and space to fully recover from his present condition without any undue pressure and with the expert medical attention he requires".
Mick Hennessy added that the decision was "heartbreaking".
Uncle and trainer Peter Fury has said Fury will return "stronger" and "reclaim what's rightfully his".
Fury withdrew from his latest rematch against Ukraine's Klitschko, scheduled for 29 October, because of mental health issues.
He then admitted in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine that he was taking cocaine to help deal with depression.
The British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) met on Wednesday to discuss that revelation, as well as other comments by Fury, and could decide to strip him of his licence to box.
The WBO and WBA had already said Fury could lose his titles because of inactivity.
Meanwhile, promoter Eddie Hearn has said a deal is "very close" for Britain's heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua to fight Klitschko for his IBF belt and the now vacated WBA title.
It is thought New Zealand's Joseph Parker and Mexico's Andy Ruiz Jr could now contest the WBO title.

"First of all, Tyson Fury needs to get himself medically fit then it's up to him and his uncle and trainer Peter Fury and promoter Mick Hennessy to decide what route they want to take.
"Will he be fit enough and able enough to go straight back in for a world title shot or will he need a warm-up contest before he fights again? It's so unclear at this stage because of the medical situation."
WBO chairman Luis Batista-Salas had said Fury could lose his belt because of "inactivity, breach of contract and performance-enhancing drugs and stimulants".
The WBA president Gilberto Mendoza said Fury deserved a chance "to overcome this situation", but added the Englishman could ultimately lose his title.
There is an option that Fury can be declared as a 'champion in recess'. This means Fury is the mandatory challenger for the belt when he returns to the ring.
Fury is also facing a UK Anti-Doping hearing next month with reports claiming he tested positive for banned substance nandrolone in February 2015.
Trainer and uncle Peter Fury: "It's driven him to despair. I see him being back in the gym in March or April. He'll resume his career."
Billy Joe Saunders: "It is a big mistake, taking his boxing licence away. It is like taking food from a baby," he added. "He needs the licence to pull through."
IBF champion Anthony Joshua: "Tyson is a fighting man, a real talent and he is good for boxing in his own way. It's too easy to point the finger because none of us really know what he is going through." | Tyson Fury has vacated his WBO and WBA world heavyweight titles to deal with his "medical treatment and recovery". |
Campbell was killed instantly on Coniston Water when the craft flipped over while travelling at more than 300 MPH during a 1967 record attempt.
Divers recovered the wreckage in 2001 and it is now being restored.
About a third of the boat is being moved to the Ruskin Museum in Coniston, where it will be shown in a wing dedicated to Campbell.
It includes two massive spars, originally clad in lightweight aluminium fairings to give Bluebird her sleek shape, which have been fully restored.
There are also replicas of the boat's four-metre long outer hulls, or sponsons, from the original drawings.
The originals were ripped away in the accident, and recovered floating but subsequently scrapped.
A team of volunteers at a workshop in North Shields will now fit the centre hull with its engines and systems.
Vicky Slowe, curator of the Ruskin Museum, said: "There's about one and a half tonnes of Bluebird going on show.
"We have a life-sized footprint of the Bluebird on the floor of the Bluebird wing, where the complete boat will go in due course, and the idea is to display these pieces on top of that so people can see how they fit together."
The parts will be fully reassembled at the Ruskin Museum and Bluebird will then be taken for a run on Coniston Water, before going on permanent display at the museum. | A large part of Donald Campbell's Bluebird is set to go on display at a museum in the Lake District. |
There were also reports of loud bangs or explosions coming from inside the prison.
Police and specially trained guards were called to the Category B prison at about 17:00 GMT.
Ambulance and fire services were on stand-by, although no casualties were reported.
In a recent report on HMP Bedford, inmates claimed it was easier to get hold of drugs than clothes or bedding.
"We do know there's concerted ill-discipline, if not a riot situation going on at Bedford," said Steve Gillan, general secretary of the Prison Officers Association.
He said some guards at the prison had retreated to a "safe place" and teams of riot-trained officers had been deployed.
"There could be anything up to 200 prisoners involved. We don't know how many are out of the cells, some are still locked up," he added.
Mobile phone footage apparently from inside the prison was posted online, revealing chaotic scenes, with scores of prisoners out of their cells and in the prison's gangways, shouting and bellowing.
One video showed what appeared to be paper and furniture strewn across an atrium floor, although the footage could not immediately be verified.
However, Mr Gillan said: "The POA has been warning about this situation of violence in our prisons - it would appear it's coming to fruition."
The Ministry of Justice said it had no reports of any prison officers being injured in the disturbance.
A spokesman said: "Specialist staff are on site trying to resolve the situation as quickly and safely as possible. This is very much an ongoing incident."
A Prison Service spokesman said: "We are clear that prisoners who behave in this way will be punished and could spend significantly longer behind bars."
Shadow justice secretary Richard Burgon said on Twitter: "More troubling news concerning our prisons. The Justice Secretary needs to do more urgently to tackle crisis."
Last week Justice Secretary Liz Truss unveiled a White Paper detailing £1.3bn investment in new prisons over the next five years, and plans for 2,100 extra officers, drug tests and more autonomy for governors.
HM Inspectorate of Prisons also discovered incidents of self-harm had almost doubled from 67 to 121.
In a report on Bedford Prison published in September, almost twice the number of prisoners said it was "easy" to access drugs, compared to a previous inspection in February 2014.
The number saying they had developed a drug problem while at the prison increased from 4% to 14%.
The report found that of 72 recommendations made after the prison was last inspected more than two years earlier, only 12 had been achieved and four partially achieved.
It also said the use of drugs previously known as "legal highs" was having a "serious impact" on safety at the prison.
The inspection found that the physical condition of the prison, which has been on its current site since 1801, was poor, with many inmates living in cramped conditions.
Peter Clarke, chief inspector of prisons, wrote: "Standards in the prison have declined to unacceptable levels."
Frances Crook, chief executive of the Howard League for Penal Reform, said after the report was published Bedford was "a good example of everything that is wrong with the prison system".
The prison held just under 500 male prisoners at the time of the inspection. | Up to 200 prisoners are said to have taken over parts of Bedford Prison amid reports of a "riot". |
The hosts started well, Karen Bardsley saving from Caroline Weir and Shanice van de Sanden thwarted by Lucy Bronze.
City then began to dominate, forcing Siobhan Chamberlain into saves from Toni Duggan and Bronze's fierce effort.
Liverpool came closest to a goal 12 minutes from time, Rosie White heading a Laura Coombs corner onto the bar.
The draw keeps City clear of Chelsea at the top heading into the mid-season break, while Liverpool are three points behind third-placed Birmingham.
Liverpool captain Gemma Bonner: "City are a great side who are top of league and flying high.
"We know the quality they possess in the team but we also know that we've got it as well, so for us we wanted to play our own game, disrupt them and I think to keep a clean sheet tonight, we're delighted with that.
"For us it's definitely a step in the right direction, I'm really proud of the girls' efforts tonight.
"We've been scoring a lot of goals this season but I think for us it was a really disciplined performance - I think tactically we were brilliant and our defensive shape was superb."
Manchester City midfielder Jennifer Beattie: "We're definitely disappointed not to get three points - with the run we've been on, we've been playing well, but unfortunately we just didn't match up to our standards today.
"A point is a point; we came in to get three - we've been on a good run and it's time to kick on for the next part of the season.
"We'll go onto the break, regroup and hope to get ourselves off to a winning start in the next half.
"It does feel like a loss, we've all said that after the game, but we'll look at it again, figure what went wrong and take it into the next game."

Littergram invites people to share pictures of rubbish on their smartphone and report it to their council.
Danny Lucas, of Wrotham, Kent, has been asked to change it to a "unique name that does not call to mind" Instagram.
Facebook, which owns the US photo-sharing giant, said it was "obliged to protect its brand".
More news from Kent
Lawyers for the US photo-sharing giant Instagram, which was bought by Facebook for $1bn (£629m) in 2012, said the name was "not acceptable".
Mr Lucas said he thought the case had been closed in May.
"We agreed to not trademark it... they agreed to us trademarking it for t-shirts, bags," he said.
Mr Lucas said he was then given until the end of April to confirm a change in name.
He then assumed the matter was closed when Facebook said in May "they were merely taking steps to stop us trademarking".
Facebook said it had been talks about how to find a way for them to have an app which was different enough to Instagram, but ultimately Littergram was a photo-sharing app which operated in a similar way.
The company said it had therefore asked them to change their name to avoid infringing the Facebook trademark, but so far had merely taken steps to object to their registration of the name as a trademark.
Facebook added they were obliged to take reasonable measures to protect their brand.
In response, Mr Lucas said: "It's exactly not what they're saying now, because they're saying change your name.
"We're not trademarking it. We'd already agreed not to do that in November 2015."
He added he was happy to discuss the matter further with Facebook.
"Don't go to the courts because we've not got the money for that," he said. | The owner of an anti-litter app says he has been told he has until Friday to confirm with solicitors for Instagram and Facebook he will change its name. |
The Norwegian, who will leave at the end of the season, watched his side win 3-1 against Hearts at Tynecastle.
Though Aberdeen beat Motherwell, Celtic's far superior goal difference effectively makes them champions with a nine-point lead and three to play.
The boys have supported me all the time," Deila told BBC Scotland.
"Always they ask me, 'have I lost the boys, have I lost the dressing room?' I never lost the dressing room, they are fantastic and you can see that today.
"I was so happy with the boys. We played a very good game. The first half, we were totally dominant and could've been two up.
"But they come over us a little bit in the second half. In the end to win 3-1 was a very good achievement here, always hard to play here. Hearts is a good football team.
"There was determination, there was energy. It was a very good performance."
The announcement of Deila's impending departure was made shortly after Celtic lost their Scottish Cup semi-final to Rangers on penalties.
A disappointing Europa League campaign and a semi-final exit from the League Cup had also put the 40-year-old under pressure.
But winning the Premiership would mean a fifth straight Scottish top-flight title success for Celtic and a second in a row for Deila, who also won the League Cup last season.
"Done is done," he explained. "Learn from it and go on. I've been a part of this club for two years. It's been fantastic.
"You work so hard and over so many months to reach your goals and we haven't reached all our goals this year but this is one of the biggest and five in a row is an unbelievable achievement.
"This is just the start for this club because it's so great, so many talented players. It's been a fantastic generation. Some of them have been here for all five and now it's building up young generation behind it as well that can take over after some years.
"We have three games left. We want to win and have the biggest gap we can get. Aberdeen is coming next week and I'm very hungry to beat them and all the boys are as well."
And, asked if he would be celebrating on Saturday evening, Deila replied: "I can assure you of that."
Robbie Neilson bemoaned defensive lapses from his Hearts side, with Patrick Roberts and Leigh Griffiths taking advantage for Celtic's second-half goals after substitute Abiola Dauda had cancelled out Colin Kazim-Richard's early opener.
"The players gave everything, they worked as a team but then we made some errors that cost us the game," Neilson told BBC Scotland.
"Second-half, we went 1-1 and had the dominance in the game, looked like we could go on and win it and then our downfall was two defensive errors.
"But, we've got a young team and two young centre-halves that are still learning the game. We have to try and support them through it and try and make them better.
"We just over-committed a wee bit. We started going a little bit gung-ho and lost our shape. Celtic didn't create a lot that wasn't our making.
"We're not far away but you've got to give Celtic credit. They've got good players, international players of real quality, and we have to try and match that.
"They're the best team in the league, there's no denying that. Best points, so they deserve it, they deserve the respect and the credit of everyone.
"We have to try and push as hard as we can towards the end of the season and then try and build a team that can go and compete next year." | Manager Ronny Deila insists he "never lost the dressing room" after Celtic all but sealed another Scottish Premiership title. |
"It wasn't the performance we'd hoped for. It was disappointing in a number of areas, I won't lie," Croft said.
"But the will is there and the effort will be put in this week ahead of the next match."
Glamorgan face Worcestershire in Cardiff from Friday, 14 April.
The Welsh county were beaten by an innings and 22 runs as they slumped to a third consecutive heavy loss in matches against Northants.
"I'm trying to balance out (my assessment), but I am very disappointed," Croft told BBC Wales Sport.
"The preparation you put into the game, you don't envisage the result at the end of it.
"What I and the players will be looking to put right is to rebuild the confidence, and ensure there's full commitment to a better performance.
"We've got a week of preparation where we'll be doing all we can to ensure a much improved performance."
Glamorgan were without Will Bragg, Timm van der Gugten, Michael Hogan, Graham Wagg and Ruaidhri Smith through injury, while David Lloyd was unable to bowl because of a hamstring problem.
Number three batsman Bragg, Glamorgan's top run-scorer in the 2016 Championship, is scheduled to play a second team game at Northampton after back trouble, to see if he has a chance of facing Worcestershire.
"It's in his best interest, he hasn't played any cricket for a long period so just to get back into the middle and see if his back flares up," said captain Jacques Rudolph.
"He was one of our best batters last year."
Hogan (sore hip) is the most likely of the seam bowlers to have a chance of returning.
Worcestershire will be without England all-rounder Moeen Ali, who is rested from their opening game on ECB instructions and will return the following week against Northants.
"They've got a pretty decent batting line-up as it is, and (Joe) Leach has done well for them with the ball, they're going to be a competitive team to play against" added Rudolph.
"But after this loss, it's important to work on what we can and not focus too much on the opposition."

With roots stretching back to the 10th century, Luxembourg's history is closely intertwined with that of its more powerful neighbours, especially Germany.
Many of its inhabitants are trilingual in French, German and Luxembourgish - a dialect of German.
Despite declaring its neutrality, Luxembourg was occupied by Germany during both World Wars.
After renewed occupation in the Second World War, Luxembourg abandoned its neutrality and became a front-rank enthusiast for international co-operation.
Luxembourg's prosperity was formerly based on steel manufacturing. With the decline of that industry, Luxembourg diversified and is now best known for its status as Europe's most powerful investment management centre.

Head of state: Grand Duke Henri
The ruling Grand Duke of Luxembourg succeeded to the title in 2000, on the abdication of his father Jean. He had already exercised the constitutional powers of the monarch since 1998.
Born in 1955, the future Grand Duke Henri studied politics in Geneva, where he met his Cuban wife Maria Teresa. He later underwent officer training at Britain's Sandhurst Academy.
The head of state's constitutional role is largely ceremonial, and in 2008 parliament further restricted it by rescinding the monarch's right to veto legislation.
Prime Minister: Xavier Bettel
Xavier Bettel formed a government in December 2013 after snap elections in October at which his Democratic Party, the Socialists and Greens emerged with a small majority over the largest overall group, the conservative Christian Social Party.
The vote was called after Jean-Claude Juncker of the Christian Social Party, who had been prime minister since 1995, lost his majority in parliament when the Socialists quit his coalition in July 2013 over a phone-tapping scandal.
The Christian Social Party had been in government since 1979.
Mr Bettel, the mayor of Luxembourg City between 2011 and 2013, is the country's first openly gay prime minister.
Luxembourg exerts immense media clout and has a long tradition of operating radio and TV services for pan-European audiences, including those in France, Germany and the UK.
Generations of British listeners grew up with Radio Luxembourg, which beamed pop music programmes into the UK. "The Great 208" is no more, but media group RTL is still a key player in media markets across Europe.
Luxembourg's media empire extends to the skies. It is home to Europe's largest satellite operator, Societe Europeenne des Satellites (SES), which operates the Astra fleet.
Some key dates in the history of Luxembourg:
1914 - First World War. Luxembourg is occupied by Germany until 1918.
1920 - Luxembourg joins the League of Nations.
1921 - Luxembourg enters economic union with Belgium.
1940-44 - Luxembourg is again occupied by Germany during Second World War.
1957 - Luxembourg becomes founder member of the European Economic Community, a fore-runner of the European Union.
2000 - Crown Prince Henri becomes Grand Duke of Luxembourg on the abdication of his father, Jean.
2009 - G20 adds Luxembourg to "grey list" of countries with questionable banking arrangements. Shortly afterwards the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) commends Luxembourg for improving financial transparency with agreements with a dozen countries. | The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg - a small country landlocked by Belgium, France and Germany - is a prominent financial centre. |
The subsidies will be cut by 64%, although this is less than the previous proposal of an 87% reduction.
The cuts have been softened following a storm of criticism.
The government says large-scale solar farms are cost-competitive, but the sector says it is being forced to stand on its own feet before it is ready.
The industry is worried about a new government cap on the volume of solar installations.
UK Energy Secretary Amber Rudd said: "We have to get the balance right and I am clear that subsidies should be temporary, not part of a permanent business model.
"When the cost of technologies come down, so should the consumer-funded support".
However, Leonie Greene from the Solar Trade Association said: "We thought the government had listened more to our case. We are very disappointed".
Environmental group Friends of the Earth called the cuts a "hammer blow":
"The cuts come just a day after the government pushed through plans to allow fracking beneath National Parks and protected areas.
"It's outrageous that the government continues to hand out billions of pounds in subsidies every year to climate-wrecking fossil fuels, while trying to block the clean energy sources we urgently need."
Domestic solar subsidies were said to be costing households about £7 a year. The industry said the planned cuts announced in the summer have already cost 6,500 jobs.
The government estimates that between 9,700 and 18,700 solar jobs could be lost as a result of the changes to subsidies.
It says its main priorities are keeping the lights on and holding bills down. But its downgrading of renewables since the election has already deterred some investors from the UK.
Its squeeze on the solar industry has successfully reduced billpayer support, but industry sources say the manner in which it was performed has reduced investor confidence.
Now the former CBI chief, Lord Turner, has told the BBC that he fears a government rift over the low-carbon agenda which the UK backed at the Paris climate talks at the weekend.
Lord Turner, a former head of the government's advisory Climate Change Committee, said he believed that the Prime Minister was committed in his heart to tackling climate change along with the energy department DECC, but that the Treasury was not.
He said: "I would love - as someone who believes that we have to make better effective action on climate change - that George Osborne was more a believer of this in his heart and fundamentally I don't think he is."
Asked if that was a problem for public policy he said: "Yes I think it is. Within the combination of the departments in the UK government and the ministers in the UK government, it is the Treasury which is probably the one which we have to make sure does not undermine our commitment to achieving strong reduction in our carbon emissions."
A Treasury spokesman told the BBC he did not recognise Lord Turner's view. The government's policy, he said, was unified. The government has consistently said it would meet its commitments on carbon emissions.
But Lord Turner said the Treasury tried to weaken targets during discussion of the fourth of the "carbon budgets" mandated by the UK's world-leading Climate Change Act.
Mr Osborne has previously said he does not want the UK to lead the world in climate action unless other nations were making the same effort.
He has been under pressure from heavy industries, which said high energy prices caused in part by low-carbon policies were driving jobs abroad.
The chancellor is yet to comment publicly on the Paris summit which saw more than 180 governments promise to curb emissions of greenhouse gases.
Lord Turner - along with many industry analysts - supports reform of the unwieldy renewables subsidy system. But many say the cuts have driven away investors because support was withdrawn too suddenly.
One analysis from BBC News suggested that, even before the CCS cuts, the government had made many policy changes likely to increase carbon emissions.
Lord Turner criticises decisions such as the ending of the rule for new homes to be carbon neutral, and the scrapping of a £1bn support scheme for carbon capture and storage.
The Climate Change Committee will advise next year whether the UK's carbon targets need to be more rigorous following the decision of the Paris summit to hold the global temperature rise down to well below 2C, aspiring to 1.5C.
Lord Turner's interview will be broadcast on BBC News Channel "Hard Talk" programme at 10.30 on Thursday.

My mum insisted I should dress smart for the big day so I wore a skirt suit, only to find on my arrival that everyone else was wearing tracksuits.
I was only 15, but it was still embarrassing, and to make matters worse I ended up getting an embarrassing score in my first bleep test.
I thought it was a speed test, so sprinted the test from the start, not realising that there was a gradual increase in how hard it would get. By the time we reached level five I was dying and dropped out, even though that's only halfway to a decent standard. What an impression to make on your first day!
Fortunately that wasn't the end of my England career, and 100 caps later I feel incredibly humbled to become the 10th England women's player to achieve that mark.
When you look at some of the names from both men's and women's England teams to have earned 100 caps, they are real legends of the game: Sir Bobby Charlton, Bobby Moore, Kelly Smith, Peter Shilton, Fara Williams, David Beckham, Casey Stoney and Steven Gerrard.
So many of those players are role models to me and if my international career ended today, I would be very proud of what I've achieved, but after two defeats and a draw in the SheBelieves Cup, there is plenty to look forward to as we prepare for the European Championship next summer.
The achievement of reaching 100 caps actually made it a better day than I expected, based on the fact that I started the France game on the bench and wasn't sure if I would play a part.
But once the manager Mark Sampson said I was going on, it began to dawn on me, and I received a special surprise as soon as made my way onto the pitch. Our skipper Steph Houghton immediately handed me the England captain's armband, which I've never worn before.
It was an incredible gesture and although I feel a huge sense of responsibility every time I play for England, all of a sudden I felt quite emotional so I had to quickly refocus on the game.
I was determined to make an impact off the bench and, after a first half where the team was under pressure, I feel like I played my part in helping the team turn things around in the second half.
Had we been more clinical, then I think we would have won the game.

When reaching 100 caps, you are asked whether you want to make a speech in the dressing room and I was privileged to follow in the same tradition by giving a speech to the players and staff.
It was important to thank many of the people in the room who have been by my side through the good and bad moments during my career. Some of the players in the room have been my team-mates for 10 years and, through our shared experiences, have become friends.
I also wanted to thank the head of team development, Adam Streeter, who has been great with me, and I wanted to send a message to the players who may have another 70 or 80 caps ahead of them to never take playing for England for granted and to honour the badge every time they put on a shirt. I know that should go without saying but I felt it important to reiterate the point.
I've been overwhelmed with messages of congratulations from people I've known for years, and I just want to thank friends, family, coaches and team-mates who have helped me reach this stage of my career. The 48 hours since the game have been amazing.
Despite losing to the United States and Germany, and picking up a point against France to finish third, we realised we are not far off beating these teams.
That is the key aspect: turning encouraging performances into victories. I spoke to some of the US players after we played them and they said they were surprised how tough we were to break down before Crystal Dunn's superb goal.
The defensive approach is evident in the manager's tactics, now we just have to create more chances, and turn those into goals. There were signs of us doing that against the French.
Some people might say that the results show the World Cup win over Germany was a fluke but every game is different. The important aspect now is that we can beat Germany on a good day, and that wasn't always the case in the past. This time they got the penalty decision which swung the game in their favour.
Although we are still in pre-season, some of our GPS results were as high as our opponents, who are in mid-season, so we cannot use fitness as an excuse and sometimes losing helps by putting a spotlight on what we really need to work on.
I would have preferred more playing time, but hopefully I can keep performing consistently and work hard to make the squad and the starting line-ups for next year's tournament so we can prepare for Euro 2017 in the best way.
By that stage we will better prepared than ever and in a position to confidently say we are ready to win a major tournament.

Placards reading "save our A&E" and "Our NHS is here to stay" were waved along the route from Huddersfield Royal Infirmary (HRI) to Greenhead Park.
Under the proposals, all emergency acute and high-risk planned care would be brought together at Calderdale Royal Hospital in neighbouring Halifax.
NHS Greater Huddersfield CCG said no decision had been made on the plans.
The proposals, which could save the NHS £31m, would see a new site developed in Acre Mills, Huddersfield, as a hospital for planned care, but with no A&E.
A public consultation recently revealed 60% of 7,500 respondents felt they would be negatively hit.
Karl Deitch, from the Hands off HRI group, said the march was to show the town "won't take it lying down".
"We're not stopping, they need to take a look and think - we have to go to a plan B, we need another alternative," he said.
Speakers at a rally at Greenhead Park included Barry Sheerman, Labour MP for Huddersfield, and Jason McCartney, Conservative MP for Colne Valley.
Several demonstrations against the proposals have now been staged, with a petition signed by more than 63,000 supporters.

Middlewich station closed 55 years ago, leaving the Sandbach to Northwich line as freight only.
Campaigners claim reopening the passenger service would "link communities in Cheshire back together".
Cheshire East Council will begin consulting on which area to allocate a new station. Network Rail said a "solid business case" was needed.
Middlewich railway station closed to passengers in 1960 and was subsequently demolished.
The 8.5 mile (16.7 km) line remained open for freight services.
In 1999, a council-backed feasibility study estimated 750 passengers per day would use the route and claimed the cost of reopening it could range from £970,000 to £2.2m.
Samantha Moss, from the Middlewich Rail Link Campaign, said: "Our train line is there, it's a viable train line.
"If people all over Cheshire got to use it, the benefits it would see to the education of our children and the economic community would be huge."
Cheshire East Council said it "supports the aspiration" of reopening the line but warned "as the line is a freight line, a new station is not straight forward".
The Department for Transport said: "We are aware of the aspirations to open up the Middlewich freight line to regular passenger services and build a station at Middlewich.
"We would look to local authorities in Cheshire and the rail industry to judge whether there is a business case for reopening the route."
The council is launching the consultation as part of its future Local Plan so the area can be protected from planning applications for other developments. | Land for a new railway station in Cheshire is being earmarked by a council following a campaign. |
The prize was awarded at the World Travel Awards in Antalya, Turkey, which are described by organisers as the "Oscars of the travel industry".
Yorkshire is the first location other than a major city or country to have won the Leading Destination title in the 17-year history of the awards.
Tourism agency Welcome to Yorkshire said the award was a "major coup".
The awards are intended to highlight and reward locations and travel brands considered to have made the greatest contribution to the tourism industry over the past twelve months.
Tourism is worth about £7bn annually to Yorkshire, with 216 million visits made to the county each year, said Welcome to Yorkshire.
The award comes less than a year after Yorkshire won the right to host the start of the Tour de France in July next year, with the race's Grand Depart taking place in Leeds.
Gary Verity, chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire, said the award was a "real validation" of the efforts put in by the county's tourism industry.
"It's fantastic to see Yorkshire taking its rightful place as one of the top holiday destinations in Europe," said Mr Verity.

Citing recent research carried out in Sweden, the charity Autistica described the problem as an "enormous hidden crisis".
The study, in the British Journal of Psychiatry, suggested autistic people die on average 16 years early.
The charity now wants to raise £10m for more research into the condition.
In the UK it is estimated 1% of the population - or 700,000 people - have autism and it causes difficulties in how they communicate and relate to others.
The Swedish study looked at the health records of 27,000 autistic adults and used 2.7 million people as a control sample for the general population.
The research, carried out by the Karolinska Institute, found that those with autism and an associated learning disability, died more than 30 years early - with the average age of death being 39.
In this group of people, a leading cause of death was epilepsy.
Scientists still cannot exactly explain the link between autism and epilepsy, which is partly why the charity wants to raise the money over the next five years to enable more research.
The Swedish study also suggested that people with autism, who were not held back by any intellectual disability, died on average 12 years younger - at 58 years old rather than 70.
After heart disease, suicide was the most common cause of death for this group of people.
Past research has suggested that autistic women are more at risk of suicide than men and only half of autistic people who have considered suicide were categorised as depressed - although this latter point may be down to problems with communication in diagnosis.
The research, which was published online in November 2015, was carried out by Dr Tatja Hirvikoski, who described her findings as "shocking and disheartening" and she said there was an "urgent need for increased knowledge".
Autistica's chief executive Jon Spiers told the BBC the number of deaths in autistic adults was an "enormous hidden crisis".
"The inequality in outcomes for autistic people shown in this data is shameful," he said.
As a "spectrum" condition, it impacts on people in different ways and has symptoms that range from mild to very severe.
Around a quarter of people with autism speak very few or no words, while statistically only 15% go on to find full-time employment.
And almost three-quarters of people have at least one associated mental health condition, while 40% have two, the charity said.
Autistica also wants the government to carry out a national autism mortality review, and a petition demanding this action will be delivered to Downing Street later in the year.
Mark Lever, chief executive of the National Autistic Society, said the situation could be even worse in the UK.
"We have no reason to believe the situation would be that different here," he added.
A Department of Health spokesperson said: "We have made monumental strides in the way we treat conditions such as autism in this country, but we must speed up progress even further.
"That is why we are working alongside people with autism, and their carers, to make sure they have access to healthcare with adjustments made for their conditions."
Gill Ackers is the mother to Ellie, 19, who has autism and recently began having seizures.
She said: "Seeing your child suffer a seizure is shocking and painful enough.
"To know that as someone with autism they are also more likely to die early from epilepsy is a double blow.
"We need proper answers and we need them now. We cannot simply stand by and watch people with autism die because of a lack of research and specialised care." | People with autism are dying earlier than the general population, often through epilepsy or suicide, a charity has warned. |
The review follows pressure from civil rights groups to investigate the death of Mario Woods at the hands of police.
His shooting in a hail of bullets in December sparked widespread outrage.
The force is the latest in the US to face attention over fatalities involving African-Americans.
However the review will only provide recommendations, not court-enforceable reforms.
"We will examine the San Francisco Police Department's current operational policies, training practices and accountability systems, and help identify key areas for improvement," US Attorney General Loretta Lynch said in a statement.
When the review is completed the Justice Department will give San Francisco police a list of procedures it can follow to insure more fairness in its dealings with citizens.
Local residents and citizen groups had been calling for the federal government to examine video footage of San Francisco police gunning down Woods, who was suspected of carrying a knife.
Videos of his death under intensive fire went viral in December.
San Francisco Mayor Edwin Lee wrote to Ms Lynch asking her to launch an investigation in the interests of openness and maintaining good relations between police and the city's population.
Police in cities throughout the US have been subjected to intense scrutiny for using excessive and lethal force against suspects, many of them black.
Other American police departments such as Baltimore have asked the Justice Department to conduct similar inquiries following allegations of discrimination.
In Baltimore's case a review of police practice was already under way when black detainee Freddie Gray was killed in April.
Gray's death quickly became a flashpoint in a national debate over police use of force - especially against black men.
Protests raged for several days and at one point turned violent, forcing officials to declare a state of emergency and to deploy national guard troops across the city of 620,000 people. | The US Justice Department has announced an investigation into the San Francisco police force, eight weeks after the fatal shooting of a 26-year-old black man provoked fury in the city. |
The 33-year-old Racing 92 player is Wales' most-capped scrum-half having played 99 Tests - 94 for Wales and five for the British and Irish Lions.
Phillips won 66 of his Wales caps during Gatland's reign, with the New Zealander praising his passion.
"Mike has been a huge part in Wales' success and an integral part of the squad since making his debut," he said.
"His passion and dedication for Wales has always shone through and he ends his international career with Six Nations titles, Grand Slams and a Lions series win to his name and that is a great honour.
"We would like to thank Mike for his service to Wales and to wish him well for the rest of his playing career."

Phillips played in every game during Wales' Six Nations Grand Slam wins in 2008 and 2012, and when they won the title in 2013.
Gatland also turned to Phillips when he was coach of the British and Irish Lions on their 2013 tour of Australia, picking Phillips in the first and third Tests as the Lions won the series 2-1.
Phillips' last game for Wales was a World Cup warm-up game against Ireland in August 2015.

Paula, who did not want to give her surname to protect her daughter Catherine, was at home on a "normal" Saturday afternoon when police called.
They said they had found Catherine and taken her to Craigavon Area Hospital.
At the time, Paula issued an appeal through a police Facebook page and has now spoken exclusively to the BBC.
Paula said she couldn't believe what had happened because her daughter had been safe at home just a few hours earlier.
When she arrived at the hospital after a call from the police, she found her child "grey and in soaking wet clothes".
Catherine told her mum she was going into Portadown town centre at about 14:30 GMT to do some shopping with her friends.
But she was picked up by police at about 17:00 GMT drunk and with a head injury.
Her mother has since learned that the youngster met with her friends and arranged for someone to buy them a bottle of vodka, which they all "chipped in" £2 to pay for.
Catherine said she didn't know the person who bought the alcohol and she had never had a drink before.
"The vodka which hospitalised her only cost £2. I thought I knew where she was," Paula said.
"When the police called me I was terrified, they said Catherine had a head injury and wasn't responding.
"I have other children and nothing like this has ever happened.
"We've never had any trouble with Catherine before, she is a largely sensible and well-behaved young girl.
"When I arrived at the hospital I burst into tears at the sight of her lying there."
The teenager was resuscitated and spent the night in hospital on a drip. She needed a CT scan for an injury to her head and her body temperature was low from the cold that day.
She told her mother she does not remember anything after she started drinking the alcohol.
Paula said: "It scares me to think what could have happened if the police hadn't come across Catherine.
"She doesn't remember anything and we've now had a full and frank discussion about how much danger she was in.
"The alcohol didn't cost much, it was obviously easy for the girls to get hold of and it didn't take long for them to get so drunk that they were in danger.
"You cannot keep children in the house forever.
"Catherine won't be allowed out again until the trust that we had is built back up, but it won't stop me from being afraid of what could happen to her now.
"She wants to get back to normal as soon as possible, but I won't ever be able to forget how she looked that day she was lying in hospital."

Brown and Barclay have won 107 caps between them but have been omitted from Vern Cotter's 32-man pool.
"We seem to be promoting players who've come in from New Zealand at the expense of John Barclay and Kelly Brown.
"Your chances of playing for Scotland are greatly heightened by playing for Edinburgh and Glasgow," said Nicol.
Edinburgh flanker Hugh Blake has been called into the squad for the first time, in preference to both Brown and Barclay.
Blake qualifies to play for the national team through his Scottish grandparents.
Brown, 32, led Scotland into last year's Six Nations as captain, only to be dropped from the squad for the home defeat to England then recalled as captain for the loss to France at Murrayfield.
He was overlooked for selection for the three Autumn tests against Argentina, New Zealand and Tonga.
Barclay has excelled in the back-row for Welsh side Scarlets this season and, at 28, is likely to have several seasons left at the top level.
Former Bath and Glasgow scrum-half Nicol says favouring players who play their rugby in Scotland isn't necessarily wrong, but that ultimately the decision should come down to ability.
"There's not been a stated policy about not picking players playing in Scotland," Nicol continued.
"There are a number of players (in the squad) who play outwith Scotland, but I think it's very clear that your chances of playing for Scotland are greatly heightened by playing for Edinburgh and Glasgow.
"That might be the right thing to do, don't get me wrong.
"I just think that, if you're picking your best players for this Six Nations, and forget the World Cup, because if they're good enough for the Six Nations then you're good enough for the World Cup, you pick your best players and I would've thought Kelly Brown and John Barclay in particular are two that would come in there."
Despite reservations about the omission of some experienced players, Nicol is positive about Scotland's chances in the Six Nations.
"I'm quite excited about what could happen," he said. "It was a good Autumn series.
"A very good performance against Argentina, good again against the best team in the world, New Zealand, and then finished it off well against Tonga.
"So there's a lot of confidence in the squad.
"Edinburgh have improved markedly since the Autumn tests and that's reflected in more players coming in from Edinburgh.
"That's a good sign. These players will be a bit more confident coming into the Six Nations." | Kelly Brown and John Barclay are among Scotland's best players and should be in the squad for the Six Nations, according to former captain Andy Nicol. |

Jorge Mendes said the 29-year-old forward was the "best player ever" and the "best sportsman ever".
Mendes added: "You can't compare him with anybody else."
Ronaldo was voted the world's best player for a third time last month, beating Barcelona rival Lionel Messi to the prestigious award.
Asked how much he was worth, Mendes said: "Cristano Ronaldo? One billion. His buyout clause one billion, so it is one billion.
"If, for any reason, the club decide to sell him tomorrow for 300 million, someone will pay."
However, Mendes insisted his countryman, who cost Real Madrid a world record fee of £80m in 2009, would stay at the Bernabeu, despite his "love" for supporters of former club Manchester United.
"He will not leave Real Madrid," Mendes told BBC sports editor Dan Roan.
Mendes, who is reported to have brokered more than £1bn worth of transfers, has been described as the most powerful figure in the game.
"People have the wrong idea about agents," said Mendes.
"Being an agent means many different things. I'm someone normal, I'm working hard every single day. I have ambitions, determination and being honest, doing the right things... this is most important."
He described football as the "most important sport in the world" and defended the wages players now command, saying they "deserve the maximum possible".
Mendes compared working with his players on contracts as "like a family".
"It is like when you talk with your son, with your family... always to try to find the best way to support them," he said.
Mendes also described the ban on third-party ownership of players as "illegal" and "catastrophic" for clubs.
"Fifa and Uefa are not the police," he said. "I think that's it's very important to establish rules, the right rules, but not to stop it."
Mendes, a former DJ and nightclub owner, also represents Jose Mourinho, Luiz Felipe Scolari, Radamel Falcao, Angel Di Maria, James Rodriguez, David De Gea, Victor Valdes and Diego Costa. | Cristiano Ronaldo would sell for £300m if Real Madrid decided to let him leave tomorrow, the Portuguese superstar's agent has told BBC Sport. |
IBF world champion Selby says he was willing to take less than 75% of the purse and to fight in Warrington's hometown, but talks have broken down.
"This is a simple case of one fighter, Josh Warrington, losing his bottle at the thought of facing me," said Selby.
"The fact is the fight was there to be made, but this is the end of the saga."
Selby, who made a second successful defence of his crown last month with a unanimous points win over American Eric Hunter, had told the BBC he thought a fight with Warrington needed to be made "now or never".
"There is surely nothing worse than a boxer talking the talk, telling all his fans this is what he wants to happen, then pulling out?" Selby said.
"It has happened many times before in boxing and unfortunately it has happened again as Josh Warrington is running scared.
"The excuse is he wants to get married towards the end of August and needs to concentrate on that. I've heard some pretty feeble reasons before for running away from a fight but that's a new one even on me."
Selby, who won the IBF title a year ago, has already defended his title in the US against Fernando Montiel and was seeking a UK test this summer. His rivalry with Warrington heated up after the Yorkshire boxer described Selby as 'boring.'
"I was more than happy to give Warrington a better than 25% stake of the purse as he would not have been my mandatory challenger, but even that didn't bring him to the negotiating table," he said.
"I was looking forward to the challenge of silencing Warrington's Leeds fans. I would have taken him apart because I belong on a different level to him.
"To all the Warrington fans in and around Leeds, I can only say I'm sorry the fight isn't going ahead, but the blame for that isn't mine.
"I was happy to come to Leeds to fight their man, but Josh Warrington doesn't want anything to do with me in a ring. Those are the simple facts. Warrington's supporters can draw their own conclusions.
"As far as I'm concerned that's the end of the Selby v Warrington saga. I will now move on to the big fights and biggest tests in the featherweight division. His only chance of facing me is to get into my mandatory position and then he can take his 25% split of the purse." | Lee Selby says potential opponent Josh Warrington is "running scared", after the pair failed to find an agreement for a summer fight. |

Tianjin residents living near the site of the accident were the first to share footage. One user's video showed a fireball rising high above skyscrapers with lit debris raining down on the city.
Many described it as an apocalyptic scene, with user Upright Teenager, saying: "There were three explosions, it was like the end of the world."
Tianjin student I'm A Flying Superhero shared these photos of the blast near her home. "It felt like an earthquake," she said.
Residents fled to the streets in shock and many uploaded images of people wandering about in a daze with a hazy, fluorescent sky lit up by the explosions.
"I'm still alive," were the simple words of Little Five Crazy. Sina News also shared pictures of residents crowding a local hospital and said as of early Thursday morning around 300 people were hospitalised.
The blasts rippled through the surrounding area, rocking buildings and shattering glass windows. One Tianjin resident said the impact of the explosions had ripped off the doors of several homes in his building and caused a blackout.
He added: "Everyone is standing outside, we can often hear the sound of glass falling to the ground."
I'm A Flying Superhero shared a picture of her living room covered in glass.
Online news portal Sina News also posted a short video of a man standing by a glass door at that time knocked to the ground by the initial blast around 23:30 local time on Wednesday (15:30 GMT).
Tianjin residents began sharing posts listing emergency numbers and numbers of local authorities for people to call.
One person, surnamed Li, offered shelter to residents who could not go home, posting an address and phone number.
"There's a large carpark, there's water, airconditioning, and a place for children to rest," the person said in a post that was shared thousands of times on Weibo.
On Thursday morning many users in Tianjin were sharing information on road closures in the area and traffic updates.
Some also posted pictures of the thick black smoke coming from the site. User Tianjin Clock Forgets Time was driving on a highway about 500m by the site and posted this image, saying: "Hope everyone soon escapes from this shadow."
Beijing Youth Daily reporters snapped and shared pictures of a logistics park containing several thousands of cars which were incinerated by the powerful explosions
There has been an outpouring of sympathy from Weibo users from all over China for Tianjin residents.
"My heart is so heavy! I'm praying for Tianjin and for Tang Gu!" said Old Men Are Interesting, referring to the area where the explosion took place.
"Thank you firefighters!!! I hope more Tianjin residents will go to the hospital to donate blood. Don't forget to wear a mask if you're leaving the house. Go Tianjin!" said user Antler Deer, adding several prayer emojis.
But China's infamous censorship machine has also swung into action. The website Freeweibo.com, which tracks deleted content, said the top four scrubbed topics on Weibo were on Tianjin.
The censored posts mainly took issue with television outlets for not initially broadcasting news of the incident on Thursday morning. Some viewers said stations broadcast a soap opera.
Other deleted posts linked to a clip of a CNN reporter forced to stop his live broadcast outside of a Tianjin hospital when he was swarmed by several men.

The CQC report highlighted the "positivity and compassion" shown by staff at the Clatterbridge Cancer Centre and praised a programme which allows patients to be treated at home.
However, inspectors found some improvement was needed in safety procedures and outpatient services.
The centre's chief executive said it would "learn from all of the feedback".
Andrew Cannell said he was "very proud of the hard work and dedication shown by all our staff and volunteers", adding that they "fully deserve" the outstanding rating.
Inspectors made an unannounced visit in June and found a need to improve staffing in the radiology department. There were also issues with locating documents, some of which were found to be out of date.
However, the leadership of the NHS trust which runs Clatterbridge and the support given to patients was praised.
These included visits from a therapy dog which "offered comfort and support" and a hand bell on each ward which patients rang to celebrate the end of their treatment.
Professor Sir Mike Richards, the chief inspector of hospitals, said Clatterbridge was "a centre of excellence delivering state of the art care". | A specialist cancer service in Wirral has been rated outstanding by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). |
Police said they received a report of a 35-year-old man injured in Baldragon Road at about 13:10 on Saturday.
He had suffered stab wounds and was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary where his condition is described as stable.

Following the assault, the two suspects ran off towards the Bishop Loch area.
The two men are described as white with local accents with dark hair and wearing blue jackets. One of them is described as having bushy eyebrows.
Det Con Alan Watt said: "This despicable attack took place just yards from local shops in Lochend Road. It's imperative we trace the two men responsible.
"I am appealing to local people in the area who may have seen something to contact us. Were you in one of the shops, did you see the two men running off?
"If you have any information or knowledge regarding the suspects or the crime then please do get in touch."

On their Facebook page, event organisers said: "The heart of Camden is being ripped out, pubs are being converted to luxury flats no-one can afford, venues are under threat, the market is flogged off to be a casino.
"Camden is a unique place and worth defending against this onslaught of dog-eat-dog economics."

Paul Tonner said his petition, which gathered 1,800 signatures, was a "social media experiment", and said he found the pies "pretty disgusting".
The pies were discussed at First Minister's Questions on Thursday.
Mr Tonner said campaign supporters should "reassess their priorities" and instead champion foodbanks.
In a video posted on his change.org page, Mr Tonner said he had just wanted to "see how far a silly wee petition" could get.
He said: "As you know, there are people in this country who don't have macaroni pies, who don't have anything. And they're relying on foodbanks to give them food every day.
"I'd also like to call on politicians, celebrities and newspapers who jumped on the macaroni pie bandwagon to reassess their priorities.
"There are far more important things in the world than macaroni pies, which to be honest are pretty disgusting."
The issue gained traction in national newspapers, and was discussed at First Ministers Questions on Thursday, when Nicola Sturgeon admitted she was "not a lover of the macaroni pie", but said she had been lobbied by her father to join the campaign.
High street baker Greggs insisted it was sticking by its decision to stop stocking the pies, saying they were "the smallest selling line" in their shops. | The man behind a popular campaign to prevent Greggs from axing the macaroni pie has revealed he does not even like the pastries. |
