Missing prostitutes underwater search unearths suitcase containing tools

POLICE searching for body parts of two missing prostitutes revealed yesterday that a black suitcase they found underwater contained tools.

Forensic tests were being carried out on what could be human remains recovered on Saturday from the River Aire in Shipley, West Yorkshire, a short distance from where other body parts of prostitute Suzanne Blamires had been dumped.

Criminology student Stephen Griffiths, 40, who dubbed himself the “crossbow cannibal”, appeared in court on Friday charged with the murders of Blamires, Shelley Armitage and Susan Rushworth, who all went missing in Bradford.
