A victim of serial killer Fred West is suspected to have been found by a film crew at a Café in Gloucester. The building has been linked to the disappearance of Mary Bastholm, a 15-year-old girl who was reported missing in 1968 and has never been found. Her disappearance was linked to Fred West, who committed suicide in 1995 after confessing to rape, murder and child abuse, and there was suspicion he was involved in Mary’s death. Assistant Chief Constable Craig Holden said: On the basis of the information provided to us, we consider this to be new and potentially important evidence in the case of Mary Bastholm, however further detailed assessments will take place over the following few days to determine the extent of excavation needed.”
