A specialist diver investigating the disappearance of Nicola Bulley said he has asked her partner whether the missing mum had any "stalkers or enemies" as he fears third party involvement. Private underwater expert Peter Faulding said that questions would be raised of outside involvement if she was not found in the River Wyre soon.
Mum-of-two Nicola, who had been walking her dog Willow by the River Wyre in Lancashire, has now been missing for 11 days. The mortgage adviser was last seen while walking her dog Willow on Friday (January 27) in the Lancashire village of St Michael's on Wyre. Nicola - known as Nikki - left her daughters aged six and nine at school, before heading to the towpath overlooking the river.
She had been on a work conference call and her phone was still logged in when it was discovered on a bench along the towpath. Her microphone and camera had been turned off for the call. Several underwater searches have been carried out in the river next to the bench where her phone was found, but no traces of Nicola have been found. Willow was also found near the bench, but was dry so investigators don't think she had been in the water.
