THE prime suspect in the murder of estate agent Suzy Lamplugh has died in prison aged 70.
John Cannan was jailed for at least 35 years in 1989 for the rape and murder of newlywed Shirley Banks, along with a further sex offence, an attempted kidnapping and two counts of abduction with intent to engage in unlawful sexual intercourse.
In 2002 he was named as the prime suspect in the 1986 disappearance of Suzy, but he denied any involvement.
Suzy was declared dead, presumed murdered, after going missing aged 25, having gone to meet a mystery client.
Suzy's body has never been found. Cannan has died before police were able to complete a forensic review into the murder, an officer has revealed.
Former Scotland Yard detective superintendent Jim Dickie, who quizzed Cannan, said: "It's unfortunate he has gone to his grave without revealing publicly where he might have disposed of Suzy's body.
