[Still Waters]

Police are searching a Gloucester cafe in connection with the disappearance of a teenage girl suspected to have been murdered by serial killer Fred West.

Mary Bastholm vanished in 1968 aged just 15 and her body has never been found.

West, who died in prison in 1995 aged 53, was previously suspected over her disappearance.

I hope they can resolve this case and at least return the remains to the family for proper burial if she is indeed there.

Police have found evidence of what may be Mary's coat in the cafe basement and will conduct an excavation.
