Body in suitcase murder charge

A LONDON IT specialist has been charged with the murder of a woman whose body was found in a suitcase dumped on farmland.

Care worker Leah Questin’s remains were discovered on land off Buckland Road, in Cliffe, near Rochester, Kent, on September 24. Clinton Bailey, 35, of Malpas Road, Brockley, south east London, has been charged with her murder.

Philippines-born Ms Questin, 37, was reported missing by a friend overnight on September 16/17, after last being seen at her home in Sneyd Road, near Cricklewood, north London.

The suitcase was found at the remote site, known locally as the Old Pond, by a dog walker, who reported it to police.

Bailey will appear at Hendon Magistrates’ Court today.
