Jill Dando probe ‘ignored threats’

A television presenter who worked with Jill Dando has said the pair received similar kidnap and rape threats just weeks before the star was murdered.

Alice Beer, who worked alongside Dando on the BBC, said she received the sinister letter in her BBC mail, which bosses had passed on to police.

The 49-year-old said she had not been interviewed by officers either before or after Dando was shot dead outside her home in Fulham, west London, in April 1999.
