Australian police have announced a new reward in the enduring mystery surrounding the disappearance of British backpacker Peter Falconio, whose remains have never been found despite his killer being jailed more than two decades ago.
A reward of $500,000 (£238,670) is now being offered for information leading to the discovery of Mr Falconio’s body. Bradley John Murdoch is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of the West Yorkshire man and the assault of his girlfriend, Joanne Lees, on a remote stretch of the Stuart Highway in Australia’s Northern Territory in 2001.
