HUNT FOR MURDER SUSPECT

The parents of murdered teenager Hannah Foster are set to fly to India to help police trace the prime suspect.

Trevor and Hilary Foster aim to raise awareness of their daughter's death during their trip to India in the hope that someone will come forward with information of the whereabouts of Maninder Pal Singh Kohli.


A new telephone line being has also been set up which will be run independently of Hampshire Constabulary and Punjab Police to encourage people to call in with information about Kohli's whereabouts.

The 17-year-old student, who wanted to become a doctor, was abducted 500 yards from her home in Portswood, Southampton, Hants, after a night out with friends on March 14 last year.

Her parents raised the alarm the next day, and a full-scale search was launched.

At 2pm on Sunday March 16, Hannah's body was found in Allington Lane, West End, Southampton.

A post mortem found that she had been raped and strangled.

Police are continuing to offer a reward in India of five million rupees - approximately £65,000 - for information leading to Kohli's arrest.

Kohli, a married man who worked in a sandwich factory and lived about a mile from Hannah, is believed to have flown on March 18 last year from the UK to India, where he visited family in the Chandigarh area before disappearing.

Anyone with information about Kohli's whereabouts is urged to contact the Operation Springfield inquiry team at Hulse Road, Southampton, on 0845 045 45 45, or via the anonymous Crimestoppers line on 0800 555 111.

People in India can either contact the UK incident room as above or can call the Punjab police control room on 941 702 1955.-

These parents have a big reward out and are flying to India to capture their beautiful daughter's mud killer/rapist. Nice to see some White people with some gumption who aren't tossing the whole thing to Jewsus.

Hannah's parents make India plea
The parents of murdered teenager Hannah Foster are breaking their silence over their daughter's death by appealing in India to catch the prime suspect.
Seventeen-year-old Hannah Foster was raped and strangled as she walked home from a night out in Southampton in March 2003.

The prime suspect, Maninder Pal Singh Kholi, 36, then fled to the Punjab.

At a press conference on Monday, Hilary and Trevor Foster are due to announce plans to travel to India.

A spokesperson for Hampshire Constabulary said: "[Mr and Mrs Foster] hope to raise awareness of the ongoing hunt for the man wanted in connection with Hannah's death.

"They will also speak of a new telephone line being set up and run completely independently of Hampshire Constabulary and Punjab Police to encourage people to call in with information as to Kohli's whereabouts."

Mr Kholi, who lived in Southampton with his wife and two young children, went to India two days after Hannah's body was found in undergrowth about two miles from her home in the Portswood area of the city.

The sandwich delivery driver initially stayed with his family in the Punjab, who were unaware of the police hunt, but later left and has not been traced by detectives since.

In May, an anonymous letter sent to the Southampton Daily Echo from New Delhi said Mr Kholi had an accomplice who helped him to flee the UK last year.

The newspaper passed the information on to police.

The letter named the accomplice and said he or she had links to a terrorist organisation, although police say they have looked into this claim and rejected it.

Det Supt Alan Betts, leading the inquiry, and a team of Hampshire police have twice flown to the Indian capital to help their Indian counterparts in the hunt for Mr Kohli, but returned empty-handed.

Detectives earlier revealed to BBC News Online that Mr Kohli vanished from his family home in India after being tipped off in a phone call from the UK that police had raided his home in Southampton.

The reward for information leading to his capture was recently raised from one million rupees (£14,000) to five million (£70,000).
