Property in murder link

THE brother-in-law of murdered Melbourne woman Karen Ristevski is connected to a property near where items were found in the search for her body.

Vasko Ristevski owned a racehorse whose former trainer’s stud is at Toolern Vale – on the road targeted by detectives and sniffer dogs during the investigation.

It’s the first time the Ristevski family has been linked to the region where the mother was found dead. A witness had told police they saw Vasko Ristevski at a nearby abandoned restaurant around the time of Ms Ristevski’s disappearance.
