Julie Ward arrests 'within weeks'

Detectives believe they are closing in on the killers of Julie Ward, whose mutilated body was found eight years ago in Kenya's Masai Mara game park. Julie's father, John Ward, 63, who has devoted himself to bringing the culprits to justice, said yesterday he expected arrests to be made in the next few weeks.

Mr Ward, a hotelier from Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, said the jigsaw was finally beginning to piece together and there was strong evidence that his 28-year-old daughter had been murdered by two employees of a camping ground in the Masai Mara.

"The jigsaw is now looking much clearer than it ever has. We believe there were two people primarily responsible and a third who helped clear up the mess."
