'Important new clues' in Terry Edmonds murder
Police investigating the murder of teenager Terry Edmonds have appealed for information about two "important" new clues in the inquiry.
The 17-year-old was sexually assaulted and strangled, before her body was stuffed into a suitcase and dumped near the entrance to Morrisons supermarket car park in Tunbridge Wells, Kent in April.
The teenager, from Hadlow, Kent, had last been seen alive on CCTV after getting off a train at Tunbridge Wells railway station around 6:25pm on April 17.
Police investigating the murder wish to find a distinctive black padded jacket with a thick white stripe across the front and white markings on the side. The jacket is also possibly hooded.
Police are also trying to trace the origins of a pink sheet/blanket that was found in the area around the murder scene.
Detective Chief Inspector Anne Brittain said: "The black jacket with the white stripe and markings is important to our inquiry. We're asking the public to think hard about this. Someone out there may have seen this jacket or knows what happened to it or where it is. It may have been discarded and found. It may have a new owner and someone may even now be wearing it.
"Somebody must know where the pink sheet or blanket came from. Perhaps it came from a charity shop, someone may have dropped it, or someone may know how it came to be in the area around the murder scene. It is important that police find out about both of these items."
Police also said that they are still trying to trace a person in a CCTV picture taken at Tunbridge Wells railway station and previously released. This person could be a man or woman. He or she is wearing a light peaked cap and black top with white stripes.
Three men have been arrested during the course of the investigation - one has been released on bail while two others have been released without charge.
Anyone with information regarding Terry's murder can contact police on: 01622 654850 or Crimestoppers anonymously on: 0800 555 111.
