Man arrested 30 years after disappearance of NSW mother

  • Police arrested a 64-year-old man on Thursday morning at a unit in Murphys Avenue, Gwynneville, related to Pauline Sowry's disappearance 30 years ago.
  • The arrest came as part of renewed inquiries conducted by Strike Force Anthea, established in 2022 to investigate the details surrounding the disappearance of Pauline Sowry in late 1993 within the northern area of Wollongong.
  • The breakthrough came after police found clothing linked to the case in Illawarra bushland and issued appeals including a $500,000 reward for information about a 1968 white Holden HK Kingswood sedan.
  • Jason Lawrence, Sowry’s son, expressed relief at the long-awaited update on the case after three decades, while Assistant Commissioner Joe Cassar commended the police for their persistent efforts to bring clarity and justice for the family.
  • The arrest offers hope for resolution in the long-unsolved case, responding to the family's decades-long toll and aiming to bring the matter before the courts.
