Your support makes all the difference.A MAN was being held last night in connection with the murders of two prostitutes four years ago.
The body of 20-year-old single mother Samo Paull was found near Swinford, Leicestershire, in December 1993 and 30-year-old Tracy Turner was found dead three months later at nearby Bitteswell. Both women came from the West Midlands and had worked as prostitutes.
Leicestershire police said a 33-year-old man was in custody at a police station in the county after being arrested earlier yesterday, but refused to comment further.
