Det Insp Meade said Mosquera could have staged “the perfect murder”

For the two leading detectives on the case, they admit to remaining puzzled by many unanswered questions – including why Mosquera took the dismembered bodies to Bristol.

“[It’s] one of the things I’ve never been able to get to the bottom of,” Det Ch Insp Ollie Stride, from the Metropolitan Police, said.

Senior investigating officer for Avon and Somerset Police’s major crime team Det Insp Neil Meade also asks why Mosquera “exposed himself” to being caught, when he could have booked a plane ticket back to Colombia.

“I am confident that we would have identified pretty quickly who our suspect was, but then you’ve got a suspect that’s in Colombia which would take years to get him extradited back to the UK – if ever.

“He could have committed almost the perfect murder.

“He didn’t need to dismember them, he didn’t need to take them to Bristol,” Det Insp Meade added.
