Police have released an unusual appeal to locate a key witness to help with an investigation into alleged sex abuse in Nottingham 1972.
The witness is a woman only known by her first name, Elizabeth, who was living at a Foster care home in Derby Grove, Lenton at the time.
Detectives say they are few other details but she would have been in her mid-teens when the alleged sexual abuse of the victim happened.
It appears Elizabeth may have important information about what happened
DC Rory Greer, of Radford Road CID, said: “We appreciate that much time has passed since the alleged offence took place, but it has still required enormous courage from the victim to come forward and speak to us now.
“We are determined to help the victim to take this case forward and it appears Elizabeth may have important information about what happened in this house more than four decades ago.”
The witness may no longer live in the Nottingham area but police are hoping the year and location will help in finding her.
If you have any information about Elizabeth or any other information which will help the investigation, call 101 and quote the incident number 374 of March 17 2015.
