Sydney police reopen 30-year-old mystery Sydney | July 30, 2008 12:01:13 AM IST
Police in Australia said Tuesday that they hope to find the body of a young woman who disappeared in Sydney 30 years ago. Trudie Adams, 18, was one of a string of women and couples who vanished in the 1970s, The Daily Telegraph reported. Sydney police recently formed an unsolved homicide team to look reopen many of the department's cold cases. At a news conference, Superintendent Geoff Beresford said that Adams' body is believed to be in the large Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park about 15 miles north of Sydney. Investigators believe that Adams and 13 other young women were kidnapped between 1971 and 1978, taken to the national park, raped and killed. The kidnappings were allegedly the work of a group of up to four men. Charles Adams, the missing woman's father, who is now 79, is grateful that police have reopened the investigation. The police might get some more leads and be able to solve the crime and the people responsible for my daughter's disappearance can be brought to justice, he said. (UPI)
