The two fathers of the victims were expected in Athens Thursday; Doujon's mother collapsed in grief at Sydney Airport with authorities deeming her unfit to travel.
Cameron has already given a statement to police and denied any claim of theft; police confirmed there had been no report of theft from the Paradise Beach club.
It is understood Mykonos police were only called to investigate the attack after being contacted by the Australian Embassy in Athens.
Bloody clothes and the baton have been seized. Police continue to take statements from patrons at the bar which included a number of Australian and Italian tourists.
Zammit and Tabone and two friends had only been in Mykonos a matter of days when the attack occurred earlier this week.
THE devastated family of Doujon Zammit said Thursday that the attack was unprovoked.
"We were told it was completely unprovoked....we don't know if they think it is mistaken identity," his uncle Tony Triccas told The Daily Telegraph
There are reports that Zammit and and his cousin Cameron Tabone were framed.
The family said the cousins were ordered against a wall before the security guards attacked, knocking Zammit to the ground before he stood up and was bashed in the head again.
His friends have set up a Facebook group in his honour.
Some tributes praised him as the "vibrant school captain of Cecil Hill High School" and a young leader who enjoyed the respect of his peers.
"He exemplified what it means to be a true gentleman, standing by what he believes while giving it his all. This tragedy is such a waste and couldn't happen to a more promising young gentleman."
An acquaintance told timesofmalta.com that Zammit was "the most amazing guy who got along with anyone and everybody".
The Facebook group page titled "Only the good die young" features some 550 members with recollections and condolences by friends of Zammit.
