http://www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00383/bradford_Stephen_Gr_383952t.jpgForensic tests are being carried out on a black suitcase containing tools discovered in the river close to where the dismembered body parts of one of three murdered Bradford prostitutes were found.
Further remains were removed from the river Aire in Shipley over the weekend as West Yorkshire Police continued to search more than 100 different sites within half a mile of the flat on the edge of the red-light district belonging to the mature student Stephen Griffiths. Officers are also looking at nearly 30 locations in other parts of the city including several in Shipley, which is four miles from the centre.
A police spokeswoman said it was too early to tell whether the latest discovery would go some way towards ending the anguish of the families of the two women whose bodies have yet to be recovered. "At this stage it is unclear whether they are human or animal," the spokeswoman said. "The suitcase which was found yesterday contained tools which are to undergo a full forensic examination," she added.
Searches are expected to continue for at least the rest of this week, with 45 detectives hunting for the missing bodies still "proactively following several lines of inquiry", police said.
