Detectives working on the murder investigation into Stuart Everett’s death say that they have today closed down the Boggart Hole Clough scene after making significant recoveries.
Since closing down the scene at Boggart Hole Clough, police have opened up another scene in Parr Fold Park in Worsley, Salford.
Using CCTV trawls and speaking to members of the public, officers have been able to build a fuller timeline of events that have led to the scene being opened.
Detective Superintendent Lewis Hughes of GMP’s Serious Crime Division and Senior Investigating Officer, said:
“We have worked our way through a number of scenes, and this continues to be a big piece of work for us and the scale of this is unprecedented as we push forward with our investigation.
“Today, although we have closed our scene at Boggart Hole Clough, we will be opening another scene at Parr Fold Park in Worsley. This is also a well-used public space in Salford and we understand the disruption this may cause to those who live in the nearby area but we need to do this.
“We are working as efficiently as we can, but we need to search as thoroughly as possible for Stuart’s family so they can have the answers they need to process his death.
“We would like to thank the public for their patience and also their gratitude, as we have had a number of members of the public thanking officers for their work whilst we completed our searches at Boggart Hole Clough. We know that this is a public space that we had to close for a number of days but ultimately our searches are providing us with more evidence that we need to progress our investigation.”
