I know one of my daughter’s killers: Fiona

Press Trust Of India

London: : Fiona MacKeown, whose teenaged daughter Scarlett Keeling was found murdered in Goa, has claimed that she knows the identity of a suspected killer in her daughter’s case. “I was approached by many people who told me this man’s name. It is common knowledge out there it seems. He is a powerful person with lot of money. That would explain why police have tried to cover it up,” Fiona, who returned here last night after spending nine days in Goa, said. “People are saying that they have had enough of him and his group and they want something done about it. I don't think he will get away with it once the CBI takes over, because they (the CBI) don’t take instruction from anyone. Hopefully, we will get to the truth,” she added.

The Guardian reported on Monday that two men had been arrested in connection with Scarlett’s death, who was found murdered on Goa’s Anjana beach on February 18. Samson D’Souza was remanded in custody on suspicion of rape and Placido Carvalho had appeared in court on suspicion of drugging the British teenager and assisting in the murder.

Fiona had complained of a cover-up after police initially said the teenager had accidentally drowned when her partially naked body was found on the beach. An autopsy revealed Scarlett had been raped and murdered. It also showed that she had taken ecstasy, cocaine and LSD on the night she died.
