Shropshire border historic murder probe investigations continue
Searches are continuing on the Shropshire border as part of an ongoing historic murder investigation.
North Wales Police teams have spent the last month leading the investigation after receiving information that an unidentified man had been murdered and disposed of on the outskirts of Wrexham.
In recent weeks divers have searched a section of the Llangollen Canal in the Chirk and Chirk Bank area as part of the inquiry.
The police divers had previously examined the Chirk Bank and Moreton stretches of the canal.
The investigation, which started last month, has seen officers search a smallholding in Henlle Lane on the edge of Gobowen, near Oswestry, as well as woodland on the outskirts of Bwlchgwyn, near Wrexham.
Delyth Jones, spokeswoman for North Wales Police, yesterday confirmed searches remained ongoing, and that no arrests had been made in connection with the investigation.
Anyone with information should call police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or at crimestoppers-uk.org
