[naomi24]

//Police hunting missing airman Corrie Mckeague have arrested a man on suspicion of attempting to pervert the course of justice.....The man is not the driver of the bin lorry which collected refuse from the area where Corrie was last seen, Suffolk Police said.//

The mystery thickens.

at last some news

[Samjenko]

How old was Corrie Mckeague, as a matter of interest?

[naomi24]

23 I think.

[Sqad]

naomi.......I thought that you were going to say that the man arrested WAS Corrie McKeague..........;-)

[naomi24]

If only, sqad.

Very intriguing news !....my mind is working overtime here.

[anotheoldgit]

Pleased to see that the police are still working intensively on this case.

I do hope that it won't be long before they find out what really happened to this young airman.

Although it doesn't look too good, we hope at least that his family can soon be free of their fears and anxiety, one way or another.

[mikey4444]

AGO....100% agree, although if the Police had been a bit quicker off the mark last year........

[youngmafbog]

Unfortunately he is probably somewhere in a rubbish tip.

Intriguing development though, i wonder how he perverted the course of justice?

[mikey4444]

Perverting the course of justice can be done in many ways, and is a very serious offence. My best guess at this stage is that he has given the Police some wrong information.

[naomi24]

Corrie McKeague's father now says that in his opinion 'several people' are covering up his disappearance .

[jno]

mikey, I don't think just misleading the police amounts to perverting the course of justice, otherwise an awful lot of people would be behind bars. As you say, it's a very serious offence. Wikipedia lists three main things

Fabricating or disposing of evidence
Intimidating or threatening a witness or juror
Intimidating or threatening a judge

Presumably the last two can't have happened yet.

[Jackdaw33]

The arrested man has been released on bail. The whole affair is very curious. Will we ever find out what happened?

[naomi24]

Jackdaw, I think we will - eventually.

[Smowball]

Am pretty sure I read that they had found two more men that were in the vicinity of the bin area at that time he went missing

[mikey4444]

Lets hope the Police get it right this time....the family have waited long enough for an answer.

[mikey4444]

Some more info here, although I can't attest to its reliability.

This man was arrested earlier this week, but there has been no more news since. Does anyone have any updates please ?

Another massive blunder , just reported. The bin lorry contained over 100 Kg of waste! Not just the 11kg originally reported. More than enough for the body to be in there.
