Police search a cordoned of section of woodland
Police remove computer from home of married Polish martial arts fan butcher as they quiz man, 24, over ‘abduction’ of missing Libby Squire
Police hunting for Libby Squire today removed computers from the raided home of a married Polish butcher as they zoned in on a pond, a stretch of riverbank and several derelict buildings near her student digs.
Detectives have sealed off Paweł Rełowicz’s rented house and towed away his silver Vauxhall Astra after they arrested a 24-year-old man on suspicion of abducting the missing Hull student, 21.
This afternoon officers stopped the public entering a large area of Oak Road playing fields surrounding a pond with a helicopter hovering above as police searched drains and bins. It is half a mile from Libby’s home.
Teams were also scouring a stretch of riverbank and a series of abandoned buildings – but officers turned walkers away and refused to say why they were back in an area they have already checked in the seven days since she vanished.
A forensics officer was also seen bagging up evidence and photographing an area of pathway leading into the cordoned-off zone.
Bacon factory worker Relowicz, who according to his Facebook profile is a martial arts enthusiast, moved into the raided property around a year ago with his wife Jagoda and their two young sons, Marcel, who is two, and Oliwier, who is just three months old.
The terraced house is less than a mile from where Libby was last seen sitting on a bench seven days ago and forensics officers were carrying out fingertip searches as detectives removed Relowicz’ belongings including a PC and a tablet computer.
