Detective Chief Inspector Alan Curtis, Senior Investigating Officer in the case said, “A team of detectives have been working tirelessly to ascertain the identity of the individual and to determine how the body part came to be on the path.

“Although this must seem a very strange request we are now appealing for any female that has had a medical procedure to remove her left foot since 2014 to contact us.
“The NHS have been able to provide certain information in relation to historical surgeries but this would not include any private medical procedures, so by issuing this appeal now we are hoping to rule out anyone within this category of patient. If you have had such a medical procedure in the past eight years whether through the NHS or through private medical services I would ask you to call us, your call will be treated with the utmost respect and privacy.
“I encourage anyone that would be in this category of amputees to contact us. Or anyone that has not already spoken to us, please get in touch on number 101 quoting log 85 of 25 April 2019.”
