Photos examined after Kenya death
Julie Ward
Julie Ward's remains were found in a game reserve
Photographs which may show the last hours of a British woman who was murdered in Kenya are being studied by Lincolnshire Police.

Julie Ward vanished on holiday in 1988. Her father, John, has fought for justice for his daughter ever since.

The 28-year-old's remains were found in the Masai Mara game reserve but her killer or killers have not been found.

Lincolnshire Police are leading an investigation into the way the case was originally handled by Scotland Yard.

Mr Ward, who lives in Suffolk, says that some of the photographs handed over to detectives appear to have been tampered with but one original photograph shows a young blonde-haired woman who could be Julie Ward.

He believes the former Kenyan president, Daniel Moi, tried to cover up the murder in order to prevent damage to the tourist industry.

He has complained that the Foreign Office and Metropolitan Police, whose detectives travelled to Kenya to help in the investigation, colluded in the cover up.
