[tommie]

Yes I remember it well,,bugger even gave the cops a hand looking for her,,firemen found body parts up the chimney,,and the bugger got off scott free,,,changed his name and became a politician in India

[Rashers]

Yes, and the murder victim's mother spoke up for him in court.

[tommie]

I think from memory the search for the victim was concentrated around the Shankill area,I remember having a meal in that place,was in the basement, in Harcourt street,not far from us,His Father was a Tea Plantation owner.may have been a bit of Government corruption going on at the time. as they got rid of the death penalty in Ireland,just to save him.

Yeah, a South African of Indian parentage, came over to study medicine at the College of Surgeons in '61.

It was said that his landlord Cecil Frew had told him if he would postpone his engagement to the sixteen year old and get stuck into his studies, he would find him work as a commis chef at the restaurant, which was situated down the stairs in the basement from where Mohangi had his bedsit. I remember they turned that same basement into a music venue I used a few times in later years.
