Source B: A newspaper report, published in 2013, about a police appeal for information. An appeal was broadcast on the BBC Crimewatch television programme. The police asked for information about a murder that took place 20 years before. The Detective Chief Inspector said that after the appeal they had many telephone calls but two were very significant. One caller suggested a possible eyewitness to the attack. The other caller gave very good background information about suspects already known to the police.
