Alice Search Continues As Forensics Test Knife

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 23 September 2014 | 14.43

Police divers are continuing to search a river in the hunt for missing Alice Gross as forensic tests are carried out on a knife found in the water.

The search for the 14-year-old, who went missing in west London on August 28, is the biggest operation of its kind since the 7/7 bombings in 2005.

Attention is focusing on the River Brent and its banks near Ealing Hospital in west London where the knife was recovered.

Scotland Yard has issued a further appeal for information on her whereabouts and that of prime suspect Arnis Zalkalns.

A spokesman said: "The knife will be taken away for analysis but it is too early to say if it's connected. We are focusing on the same area as we were yesterday."

The force has come under fire for taking four days to ask Latvian authorities for help in finding Zalkalns, who served seven years in prison after he was convicted of killing his wife, Rudite Zalkalns.

He went missing six days after Alice was last seen walking alongside the Grand Union Canal.

Police are asking Arnis Zalkalns to contact them as he went missing a week after Alice Gross disappeared and he cycled along the same canal where she went missing Arnis Zalkalns could have returned to Latvia by road

Zalkalns has not accessed his bank account or used his mobile phone since September 3, nor has he returned home to his partner and young child.

His passport was left at his house and police in Latvia have confirmed he has not entered the country by plane.

They have however acknowledged it is possible he could have got in undetected if he travelled by car or coach.

Zalkalns was seen on CCTV footage cycling along a path by the Grand Union Canal 15 minutes after the last sighting of Alice.

Detectives believe he is likely to have seen Alice as they were both going north along the canal towpath.

A reward of up to £20,000 is being offered for anyone who has information that leads detectives to find Alice.

Zalkalns is white, 5ft 10ins and stocky, with dark brown hair that he normally wears tied in a pony tail.

Police have said that he "potentially poses a risk to the public" and have asked anyone who sees him not to approach him and to dial 999.
