Jailed killer is main suspect

THE prime suspect in the Suzy Lamplugh case is John Cannan, a serial rapist and killer.

Cannan has a long history of violent sexual attacks on women and three days before Suzy vanished he was given day release after serving five years for rape.

It later emerged that in jail he was known by other inmates as Kipper, the name of a mystery man Suzy met the day she vanished. The former car salesman also had access to a BMW of the type thought to have been driven by ‘Mr Kipper’ and resembled a photofit of a man seen with Suzy.

She had complained of being pestered by a man from Bristol, Cannan’s home city.

He has been questioned several times in prison about Suzy’s murder but denies any involvement.
