Australian police reveal unseen photos 25 years after British backpacker murder

Police in Australia have released previously unseen photographs from their investigation into the murder of British backpacker Peter Falconio 25 years ago.

Falconio, from Huddersfield, was shot on a remote stretch of highway near the Northern Territory town of Barrow Creek, about 186 miles (300km) north of Alice Springs on 14 July 2001.

His body has never been found and police hope the images could jog memories that could lead to a tip-off. His killer, Bradley Murdoch, died of throat cancer aged 67 in jail last year, without disclosing where Falconio's remains might be.

The images include a full length picture of Murdoch staring straight at a camera during the police investigation.

A search-and-rescue expert says a formula he developed while doing his PhD could help to locate the remains of Peter Falconio.

The British backpacker was shot in the Northern Territory outback 25 years ago and his killer, Bradley John Murdoch, never revealed what became of his body.

A $500,000 reward for information remains on offer from NT Police and the commissioner says Murdoch's "cowardly silence" has denied the Falconio family closure.

After 25 years police are no closer to finding the body of murdered British backpacker Peter Falconio, but an expert in finding homicide victims believes he knows where the 28-year-old's remains could be.
