The Big Cases

there have been countless theories about alistair�*s murder — that it was related to his work at the bank, that its brutality suggested it was the work of a hitman or that there was irish paramilitary involvement. police have investigated all of these. but they have drawn a blank on a motive. until now. remember the havelock? the pub where veronica ran for help in the minutes after alistair was shot? well, back in 2004, it had been taken over by andy burnett. he was 37 at the time. his linkedin profile says he's ex—army, a diplomatic career, posted to germany for five years in the 19905. andy burnett installed decking and a new seating area at the havelock in may of 2004, just in time for the summer. he applied for planning permission later.

of the decking on the marina. hazel was at the marina when she spotted the police boat arriving, so she started taking photos. the police officers that had been waiting here rushed down to meet them with a trolley, and what looked like large parcels of drugs were then transported from the boat to the trolley. it's quite shocking, really. it's quite surreal. it's something that, you know, you tend to see in movies, really. the beach is now back to normal. only dog walkers patrolling the pebbles this afternoon. the investigation clearly continues. i've seen a helicopter overhead and just north of aberystwyth, a police boat out on the waters, trying to work out what else might be hidden beneath the waves. the search has unsettled some. it's quite worrying, to be honest, that you can think that if it is drugs and that's majority... that amount of drugs. to be in cardigan bay, it's very worrying. large drug seizures here are unexpected, but not unprecedented.
