This is getting very interesting!

Two more women's bodies are found
Two more bodies have been found by police investigating the murders of three prostitutes.
A member of the public spotted one body on Tuesday afternoon and Suffolk police launched their helicopter and the pilot spotted a second nearby.

A woodland area around the riverside village of Levington, near Ipswich, in Suffolk has been sealed off.

Police said it is likely the two bodies are those of two missing women - Paula Clennell and Annette Nicholls.

The area is close to where the body of Anneli Alderton was found on Sunday. The bodies of Gemma Adams, and Tania Nicol, were also found near Ipswich.

Ms Clennell, 24, and 29-year-old Ms Nicholls, have not been heard from since Sunday.


Suffolk police officers were called to Levington shortly after 1500 GMT on Tuesday.

The site is off the main road between Ipswich and Felixstowe docks close to a railway line, the Orwell estuary, a marina and is in a rural area close Ipswich.

The officer leading the murder inquiry, Det Chief Sup Stewart Gull, said the "natural assumption" was that the bodies were those of missing prostitutes Paula Clennell and Annette Nicholls.

Final interview

Ms Clennell gave an interview to ITV on 5 December in which she said she was prepared to go back on the streets despite the emerging danger because "I need the money".

But she admitted the killings had made her "a bit wary about getting into cars".

However, she said she would probably still continue to do so despite already having had "a couple of nasty experiences", including being beaten up once.

Ms Clennell also said she had noticed there were now fewer men and prostitutes around.

"The girls are probably wary about coming out now," she said.

The naked body of Gemma Adams, 25, was found on December 2 in woodland at Hintlesham, on the outskirts of Ipswich. She had last been seen on November 15.

On December 8 the body of Tania Nicol, 19, was found in nearby Copdock. She was the first to go missing and had last been seen on October 30.


It was still not known if there was one or more than one killer on the loose

The naked body of the third prostitute, Anneli Alderton, 24, from Colchester in Essex, was discovered at the weekend in Nacton, a few miles further east.

Two more bodies have now been found in the neighbouring village of Levington, a mile or so from Nacton.

All the bodies were found close to the A14, which runs to the nearby port of Felixstowe.

Mr Gull said: "We've formally linked the murders of Tania and Gemma because of significant similarities, and they continue with Anneli, Paula and Annette.

"Clearly they were all prostitutes from Ipswich, they were found naked and in an open rural environment.

"This is so fast-moving, we need to take stock and maximise opportunities to recover forensic evidence from the scene before formally establishing whether they are linked or not.


"We need to catch this person or persons as quickly as possible."

Suffolk Chief Constable Alastair McWhirter described the multiple murder inquiry as "unprecedented".

"If you think of the Yorkshire Ripper, the murders took place over a long period of time," he said.

Mr McWhirter said it was still not known if there was one or more than one killer on the loose.

He said the force was bringing in assistance from other forces around the country to help in the inquiry.

Mr Gull said no further prostitutes had been reported as missing in Ipswich.
