Well, except for the in-laws coming r ound 330 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,719 but she made it into a home. 331 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,079 And when you saw them together, her and Milan, 332 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,839 you felt they were really happy. 333 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,799 At the time leading up to when she was attacked, shivani did seem a bit down. 334 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:35,439 Milan was away and she was always a bit miserable when he wasn't there. 335 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:42,640 She didn't like being on her own, but I don't remember her ever saying there was anything s 336 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:49,319 the thing about shivani was she was so popular with everyone. She was very... 337 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,639 She was special. 338 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,719 They just said she was feeling low. Nobody said anything about any kind of sta lker. 339 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:02,399 What about this woman who claims that shivani was being followed? Did she ever phone bac 340 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,799 I don't think so. We've only just started the investigation. 341 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:12,239 The only people close to shivani know it and the caller used shivani's maiden name, sharma. 342 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,359 But it's been eight years. 343 00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:18,159 Scared. This crime was originally thought to be racist, remember? 344 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:23,159 After a few years people feel they can own up to something they didn't mention at the time. M 345 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:29,560 what about pat gannon? The only way he could've been the one following shivani, unless he 346 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,879 ..was if he'd been hired by somebody. 347 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:38,800 Somebody who suspected shivani of something. 348 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,759 Who, in turn, could only be Milan, 349 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,959 his family, her family or her friends! 350 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,159 Friends don't hire pi's. 351 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:56,159 No, but family do. And if the dases did and found out that shivani had been a naughty girl... 352 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,719 Dishonourable? Please, don't say honour killing. Not again. 353 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:04,879 Are you saying they don't happen?

Carry on. 530 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,599 Mr gannon came to see me. 531 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,919 He said that he had heard about the attack on shivani 532 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,199 and that he was now going to go to the police 533 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,519 and tell them that it was me that hired him to follow her, 534 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:18,399 and it was after he told me that she saw other people that shivani was kil led. 535 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,599 Inferring that it was you who killed her? Yes. 536 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,959 Unless, of course, I gave him money. 537 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,240 So he blackmailed you. Yes. 538 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,479 But I was afraid. Very scared. 539 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:34,760 So I paid him some money but he wanted more, a huge amount. 540 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,719 So I told vikram what was happening. 541 00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:41,359 Milan was also back now and I said that if he found out about mr gannon, 542 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,399 he would also think that we killed shivani. 543 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,279 So what did vikram say? He said we should see mr gannon. 544 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,759 Make him scared of us... 545 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,359 What did you do? 546 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:57,320 We arranged to meet him where the cold store was being built. It was night. 547 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,599 We argued with mr gannon. 548 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:06,039 He laughed at us... He laughed at vikram. But vikram is very strong. 549 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:11,039 He grabbed mr gannon by the throat, just to frighten him, that was all. 550 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,399 But he struggled and vikram... 551 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,439 Vikram strangled him. 552 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,199 What did you do with the body? 553 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,759 We dug a hole, we put mr gannon in and then earth on top. 554 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,799 Vikram made sure it was covered with concrete the next morning, 555 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:32,439 but I tell you, I swear to you, we did not kill shivani! 556 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,919 Your brother believes you, but how do I know you're telling the truth? 557 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,719 Because I wanted to kill her. 558 00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:41,519 You wanted to kill her? 559 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,119 Yes. But someone got there first. 560 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:49,439 Why? Why did you want her dead? Because she betrayed my brother. 561 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,439 She dishonoured our family. 562 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,039 She deserved to die. 563 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:59,159 Funny way of denying she killed shivani, by saying she wanted her dead any road. 564 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,319 You know what I think. Jealous, manipulative and lying. 565 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,519 And those are just her good points. I'm biased, remember? Yes. 566 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:11,359 Sister-in-law. Then again, vikram, without speaking to his sister, tells exactly the same 567 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:16,439 well, if what they say is true, then we're no nearer to finding out who attacked shi v 568 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,479 what about the ring? 569 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,959 You wouldn't take a wedding ring unless it had some significance? 570 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,919 Murderers take things from their victims as a token. 571 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:30,039 The stanmore slasher used to keep their toenails. The big one. 572 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,759 Take mughda and vikram out the picture. Take pat gannon out, too. 573 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,759 We're still left with two things that need explaining. 574 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:42,439 One, who sent the anonymous note to mughda? Two, who made the anonymous phone call to me? 575 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,799 The phone call was right though, she was being followed. 576 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,359 What was that you were saying 577 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:53,599 about the passage of time, about people being willing to come forward who had once b 578 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,799 who would have been scared then who wouldn't be now? 579 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,160 A child! 580 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:13,119 What's happened? Has she admitted it? Mum's had the papers on the phone all mor 581 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:18,519 no.
