Police said the suspect left the country on a British passport and is believed to be in Zimbabwe as investigators seek witnesses.

  • Bedfordshire Police launched a murder investigation on Tuesday after discovering the bodies of a woman and two children at a home in Carnoustie Drive, Great Denham; detectives are hunting 45-year-old Ndodana Mkhanyski Tshuma in connection with the deaths.
