Stuart Everett

A new phase of searches will begin today (May 16) in Salford to look for more evidence as part of Stuart Everett’s murder investigation.

Stuart Everett, 67, is believed to have died at an address in the Winton area of the city at the end of March. Parts of his body have been subsequently found in four different areas of the city.

Two men from Eccles have since been arrested and remanded in custody on suspicion of murder.

Police will be searching land near to Walkden Train station along with Boggart Hole Clough in North Manchester over next the coming days.

Land near to Patricroft Railway station will also be searched by British Transport Police officers as they assist the police with this part of the search.

These searches are as a result of in-depth CCTV and phone data enquiries that detectives have located during their investigation.

The police aim to use all of their policing capabilities during the searches, therefore there will be officers searching from the police’s Tactical Aid Unit, crime scene investigators, underwater search divers and also canine units

Detective Superintendent Lewis Hughes from GMP’s Serious Crime Division and Senior Investigating Officer, said: “The scenes that we will be searching over the coming days have come to our attention through some exceptional detective work conducted by the investigation team.

“We know there will be some disruption to the local community as a result of searching other locations, but it is so important that we do this, we need to be able to provide Stuart’s family with the information they need to process this news.

“Our investigation is ongoing, we still have a lot of work to do and I hope the public can see the dedication and compassion that continues to be shown across the force by officers and staff who are either keeping the scene secure, searching for evidence or investigating this behind the scenes – we all have our part to play in getting justice for Stuart’s family and every search we conduct is one step closer to finding answers for them.”
