John Menzies' Daughter Christina's Murder - New Investigation

I should be grateful if you could spread the word by any means you have.

My 16 year old daughter Christina went to a disco in Club 47 in RAF Gutersloh on 12th June 1993. She never came home, she was found dead the next day around 10km from the camp, she had been strangled. No one has been convicted of her murder.

The Royal Military Police, have carried out a review of her case which concluded that there are grounds for a re-investigation. The investigation has now been launched and an appeal for information will be aired on Crimewatch Roadshow at 9.15 am on Tuesday 13th June, the 24th anniversary of her murder.

If you were in Germany at the time please watch the programme either live, recorded or on the BBC I Player and think back to that time. You will probably have heard about Christina's murder as it was a very big story at the time, both in the services community and in the UK as a whole. If you have any information, or know someone who may have information no matter how insigificant it might seem please pass it to the Special Investigations Branch (SIB) of the Royal Military Police via the number given on Crimewatch.

24 years have now passed and most of the people that were in Club 47 that night will have children of their own, these changed circumstances may allow them to look at it in a fresh light, some people may have held back information at the time because they didn't want anyone to know they were there or they were protecting friends.

Please share this post with your friends and ask them to share it further to ensure as many people as possible will see the appeal. After many years of standing still it is hoped that this appeal will be the first step towards achieving justice for Christina.
