Andrew and Dawn Searle, a couple who lived in Scotland before moving to France around 10 years ago, were found dead by a neighbour at around 12.20pm on Thursday in Les Pesquiès, south of Villefranche-de-Rouergue.
It comes after neighbour Antoine Da Silva said he saw Mr Searle making an agitated phone call days before he died.
Mobile phones belonging to a British couple found dead in France are providing “vital clues” about their death, French detectives said.
The phone of 65-year-old Andrew Searle – a former financial investigator who was involved in fighting organised crime - is proving “particularly helpful”, one detective said.
