at 11:00 p.m. on Friday March 14 2003 a call was placed to the United Kingdom's emergency services telephone number 999
00:03:28
as per standard procedure the operator answered by requesting which emergency service department the caller required

00:03:48
remained silent she then asked if you are unable to speak but need an emergency service tap the handset there
00:03:59
was no tapping and after a minute of failed attempts to elicit a response from the caller the operator transferred
00:04:06
the call to silent solutions this automated service was introduced by the London Metropolitan Police in 2002 after
00:04:15
the widespread use of mobile phones led to an overwhelming amount of accidental calls being placed to 999 silent
00:04:24
solutions aimed to keep the emergency line free from congestion by filtering out the unintentional pocket dials from
00:04:31
the legitimate crisis calls from those who needed help but weren't in a position to speak out loud when a call
00:04:39
is transferred to silent solutions an automated response instructs the caller to dial five five if they require
00:04:46
emergency assistance if they comply the call is then transferred to the relevant
00:04:52
police response unit if no action is taken by the caller the line is terminated as per protocol the
00:05:02
unresponsive phone call to 999 at 11:00 p.m. on March 14 was transferred to silent solutions and to the system
00:05:10

good spirits on the evening of Friday March 14 2003 as she prepared for a night out with her best friend Helen the

news that she was on track to receive straight A's in her upcoming a-levels a fastidious and dedicated student Hanna

00:08:02
her a-levels Hannah didn't take life too seriously always taking the time to socialise with her many friends
00:08:10

00:08:19
eyes dressed in a light brown long sleeved polo jumper at sweetie brown skirt knee-high boots and an overcoat

khaki colored satchel prior to departing for their night out Hanna and her best friend Helen put music on and danced
00:08:45
around the Fosters kitchen joined by Hanna's mother and sister Hanna remarked that she couldn't wait until 14-year old
00:08:54
Sarah was old enough to join them on their nights out telling her she would be a lot of fun to have around Hanna and
00:09:03
Helen left the house shortly after with Hillary foster waving her oldest daughter off at the front door making
00:09:10
sure to leave a light on for when she returned home later in the night Hanna and Talon made the one-mile journey to
00:09:19
South Hamptons in a City area of Bevis Valley a lively nightlife hotspot popular with students their first stop
00:09:28
was through a particle to the bent brief where Helen met her mother to collect some money for the night ahead
00:09:35
the pair then walk around to the corner to the Hobbit a quaint fantasy thing to Papa
00:09:40
named after the Tolkien novel of the same name where they H ordered a double vodka lemon to lemonade and watched the
00:09:48
live band that was playing the drink at the Hobbit would turn out to be their only alcoholic beverage for the night by
00:09:57
10:30 p.m. they switched to venues to a pub across the street called sober only to leave soon after during their walk to
00:10:07
their fourth destination a bar called a Lenin's the pair lost their motivation and decided to call it a night
00:10:14
Hannah recorded Helen to the bus stop on ports wood roads commercial strip where
00:10:20
the pair waited for Helens bus home the stop was only a 5-minute walk from the foster home and Hannah planned to walk
00:10:28
the short trip alone after seeing off her friend the bus arrived at 10:50 p.m. and Helen climbed aboard and took a seat
00:10:37
as the vehicle drove off she made eye contact with Hannah who was walking towards the high field alene
00:10:44
intersection and the friends shared a final goodbye wave [Music] at 5:00 a.m. the next morning Hilary
00:10:57
foster arose to get ready for an early shift at Southampton General Hospital where she worked as a cardiac nurse as
00:11:05
she made her way through the house she noticed the daughter Hannah's bedroom was open and to the lights that had been
00:11:12
left on in preparation for her return home was still on this resort as Hannah always turned the lights off upon
00:11:20
arriving home and slept with her bedroom door closed upon realizing Hannah wasn't
00:11:27
home Hilary was hit with a wave of panic as she hadn't received a text message or
00:11:32
phone call to indicate she was spending the night at a friend's place Hilary sent Hannah a text message asking
00:11:40
where she was and whether she was okay but by the time she arrived for her shift at Southampton general there had
00:11:48
been no reply by 6:30 a.m. she had tried calling Hannah on her mobile phone several times but each of the calls rang
00:11:59
now Hannah's sister Sarah had gone away for the weekend undertaking activities to complete her own Duke of Edinburgh
00:12:07
reward when she received a concerned phone call from her mother asking if she knew Hannah's whereabouts
00:12:14
Sarah hadn't heard from her older sister either and contacted Helen to check if the two friends were still together
00:12:23
Helen advised she hadn't seen or heard from Hannah since they parted ways that the ports would Road a bus stop at 10:30
00:12:30
the night before hillarie rushed home from work and began making phone calls to Hannah's
00:12:37
Friendship Circle but was unable to locate her her husband Trevor arrived home from work at 10:30 a.m. and
00:12:45
immediately reported his daughters out-of-character disappearance to the police who swiftly arrived to the
00:12:52
Fosters home with sniffer dogs in tow a thorough search of the residence was conducted while Hanna's family and
00:13:00
neighbors were questioned but there had been no sightings of the 17 year old since her night out on the town Hanna's
00:13:10
mobile phone was still on which was good news for police as it meant the device was capable of emitting a signal to any
00:13:18
telecommunications towers within its vicinity enabling its location to be traced after instructing the Fosters to
00:13:27
stop calling the device to preserve its battery life investigators used to telecommunications data to trace the
00:13:33
location of Hanna's phone whenever it received a text message or phone call records showed that while Hillary foster
00:13:42
was attempting to contact Hanna earlier that morning her phone emitted a moving signal
00:13:47
traveling down the m27 five motorway from Southampton to the nearby city of Portsmouth where it had since become
00:13:55
stationary indicating it was somewhere within the area phone records also revealed a 999 call had been made from
00:14:04
Hannah's phone at 11:00 p.m. the night before investigators obtained a recording of this call which captured
00:14:13
the emergency service operator making multiple unsuccessful attempts to elicit a response from the Solent person on the
00:14:20
other end of the line the operator therefore transferred the call to the silent services division but
00:14:27
as the caller did not dial the necessary fire fire to alert the service that they
00:14:32
required assistance the call was terminated audio technicians were able to enhance the 58 second a long audio
00:14:43
fall of the core revealing a muffled conversation occurring between two people in the background a fearful
00:14:50
female voice identified as Hannah fosters was heard conversing with an older male with a south asian accent who
00:14:58
spoke in broken English traffic and mechanical noises indicated they were traveling in a large vehicle possibly a
00:15:06
van some parts of the court were inaudible the technicians were able to construct a partial transcript of the
00:15:14
conversation during which Hannah lied to the man telling him she was 15 years old
00:15:20
and her name was Sarah she was then heard saying that's my Road that's where I live
00:15:28
in response the men ominously instructed her to quote hold your head down please
00:15:38
it was at this point that the call was transferred to silent services with Hannah ignoring the system's requests to
00:15:45
dial fire 5 this failure to act along with the fake identity she had given the man and their muffled foreboding
00:15:54
conversation made it apparent to investigators that Hannah had made the 999 call inconspicuously hoping to raise
00:16:02
the alarm that she was in danger without alerting the man she was doing so at approximately 2:00 p.m. the following
00:16:13
day of Sunday March 16 2003 a woman and her 14 year old son were driving through
00:16:20
West End a village on the northeastern outskirts of Southampton as they traveled along Ellington Lane a rural
00:16:28
road just off the m27 motorway the teenager spotted something in a ditch 15 feet from the edge
00:16:35
the road his mother pulled the car over to have a closer look and tucked beneath
00:16:42
the thick undergrowth and brambles that bordered one of the neighboring pastures
00:16:46
the pair discovered the fully clothed the body of a young female police were called to the scene where they
00:16:56
identified the deceased as Hannah foster a subsequent autopsy concluded that she
00:17:02
had been beaten and sexually assaulted before being strangled to death with toxicology tests revealing she had - no
00:17:10
traces of alcohol or other drugs in her system although she was wearing shoes her feet were caked in dirt and her
00:17:18
clothing was in disarray suggesting she had been stripped and - then redressed by her killer scratch marks on her neck
00:17:26
were believed to be defensive wounds sustained while attempting to loosen her attackers grip traces of semen found on
00:17:36
Hannah's coat presented the most promising lead however when the sample was run through the police database no
00:17:43
match was found as the perpetrator had no prior criminal record meanwhile detectives broke the devastating news to
00:17:52
the foster family who were overcome with grief and his parents Hilary and Trevor
00:17:58
were required to formally identify their daughter with Hilary later stating I couldn't believe what I was seeing there
00:18:08
must be some mistake the cold bruised and battered body certainly looked like Hannah but where
00:18:15
was the sparkle in her eyes the radiant smile the warmth and tenderness of her touch
00:18:22
Hannah was vibrant graceful gentle and so alive I felt numb paralyzed by grief and pain why Hannah she had so much to
00:18:37
live for so much unfulfilled promise so many talents so much humanity and compassion
00:18:45
to share police appealed for any witnesses who were in the Bevis Valley area late on
00:18:54
Friday March 14 to come forward with a widespread media campaign in shooing a police spokesperson warned there have
00:19:04
been no significant incidents reported in the area to date that can be directly linked to Hanna's disappearance but we
00:19:12
would advise the public to exercise caution we would advise lone females walking in this area not to go out alone
00:19:19
at night and to stick to brightly let public roads until we have determined exactly what happened to Hanna CCTV
00:19:30
footage obtained from the area captured the two friends walking along the streets during their night out but
00:19:36
little else of interest speculation arose over the possibility Hanna may have been picked up by a taxi driver
00:19:43
after waving Helen off at the bus stop but this seemed unlikely given the stop was a mere five minute walk from her
00:19:51
home regardless police appealed for any taxi drivers who may picked up a teenager matching Hannah's description
00:19:59
to make contact they obtained Hanna's home computer and began analyzing her online history and mobile phone records
00:20:09
to determine whether she may have arranged the secret rendezvous with someone after leaving her friend but
00:20:15
there was no evidence to support this theory just 24 hours after Hanna's body was found an employee at a recycling
00:20:24
plant in Portsmouth the coastal city where her mobile phone last pinged off nearby telecommunications towers was
00:20:32
looking inside a bottle recycling bin when he spotted a car key colored satchel with a mobile phone inside both
00:20:41
items were confirmed to belong to Hanna this discovery added a third key location to the crime in addition to
00:20:49
Southampton where Hanna disappeared and the West End outskirts where her body was found
00:20:57
two days after the discovery of her body a candlelit vigil was held for Hanna at
00:21:03
South Hamptons high field church with hundreds of a mourners gathering to pray labour haze of flowers and sign a
00:21:10
condolence book with loving messages and too fond memories of the teen the site where her body was found was marked with
00:21:18
flowers and notes from grieving members of the community with one handwritten note reading you were all in our
00:21:26
thoughts at this very sad time what a cruel world we live in by the following day Wednesday March 19
00:21:38
investigators had received over 200 phone calls from the public the case made national news headlines with South
00:21:46
Hamptons shops bus stops and street signs plastered with posters of Hanna and a description of the outfit she was
00:21:53
last seen wearing requesting witnesses to make contact with police Hillary in to Trevor foster held their first public
00:22:02
press conference to make an emotional plea for information regarding their daughter's murder with Trevor saying we
00:22:11
as a family are devastated by the loss of Hannah Hannah was a warm kind-hearted girl who could always see the good in
00:22:19
others she was a gentle and graceful girl what is important now is to catch the person responsible for this cruel
00:22:28
and brutal act so that no other family will have to suffer the trauma we are going through enter the numbing
00:22:34
emptiness that has entered our lives and destroyed our family [Music] investigators collected CCTV footage
00:22:45
from the various locations Hanna's mobile phone was pinged on the night of March 14 as the audio recording of her
00:22:54
999 call had indicated she was being driven in a van they were on the lookout for any matching vehicles traveling in
00:23:01
those areas at the exact time Hanna's mobile phone was positioned to there a total of seven different vans were cited
00:23:10
in the CCTV footage prompting investigators to begin the task of identifying each of the vehicles owners
00:23:18
given the suspected killer heard what sounded like a South Asian accent they were confident the men that were looking
00:23:25
for was not originally from the United Kingdom on March 26 ten days after Hanna's body had been found BBC
00:23:36
television show crime watch aired a segment about the case bringing acting the teenager's
00:23:41
last-known movements and appealing for assistance to identify her killer Hillary and Trevor foster made an
00:23:48
appearance on the show to voice their torment with Hillary explaining quote it's the not knowing what she's been
00:23:57
through and to just knowing how frightened she must have been at some stage and we
00:24:03
can't get beyond that after the episode of crime watch ad close to ninety members of the public phone to the
00:24:12
police including Southampton resident James Dennis who worked as a supervisor for
00:24:18
ready-made meal producer Hazelwood foods James had noticed that one of his employees 35 year old delivery driver
00:24:27
Maninder Pal Singh Kohli had been acting suspiciously around the time of Hannah's
00:24:33
murder furthermore on the night of March 14 Koli had been in possession of one of
00:24:40
hazlewood foods distribution Vance and his delivery route passed through the key locations of the crime police noted
00:24:49
the registration number of Coley's van was already on their list of seven peoples of interest having been captured
00:24:56
on traffic cameras travelling from Southampton along both the m27 and M 275 motorways at the exact time Hanna's
00:25:06
phone was tracked moving on the same course in the early hours of March 15 a petrol station security camera captured
00:25:17
Holly's van traveling three times in different directions around the area where Hanna's body was eventually found
00:25:25
at 3:15 that same morning he entered the petrol station and initiated his scheduled deliveries before travelling
00:25:33
to Portsmouth where Hanna's phone and bag were later recovered this sighting was particularly significant as
00:25:41
Portsmouth was not part of Coley's delivery route and he therefore had a no legitimate reason to be in the area
00:25:49
after completing just half of his deliveries he returned to the Hazelwood of foods Depot telling his boss he had a
00:25:57
sore back and needed to go home to rest within one hour reverse saving James Dennis's phone call police arrived to
00:26:07
Hazelwood foods to seize the delivery vehicle in question a white van with a distinctive refrigeration unit on top
00:26:14
enter the word of Rockfield written across the bonnet forensic analysts found traces of semen on the seats and a
00:26:24
chrome pole covered in blood spatter and several strands of hair as forensic testing of this evidence
00:26:32
commenced detectives made their way to call his home on broad lence Road in Southampton which was less than one mile
00:26:39
away from the Foster's residence upon their arrival they discovered there were no curtains in the window sought
00:26:47
furniture inside indicating the house had been completely abandoned a check of Coley's background revealed he had
00:26:56
relocated from India to the United Kingdom in 1993 as part of an arranged marriage to a uk-based Indian woman
00:27:04
named sherlynda the couple had two sons a six year old and a four year old it didn't appear to
00:27:13
be a happy marriage with neighbors overhearing the couple fired often describing Kaali as a drunk and
00:27:19
self-confessed gambling addict police were able to locate Coley's wife she Linda and to their two children who were
00:27:28
staying at her parents house nearby she explained her husband had traveled back to India to look after his mother who
00:27:36
was in a coma after being hit by a bus while she refused to believe her husband could be responsible for such a heinous
00:27:45
crime she Linder allowed police to extract two DNA samples from one of her sons to test against the forensic
00:27:52
evidence uncovered from the delivery van police examined CCTV footage from London's Heathrow
00:28:00
Airport and spotted Kohli in transit on March 18 two days after Hannah's murder dressed in a lightweight suit and
00:28:10

00:28:17
Delhi with a population of over 18 million people Delhi is the fifth most densely populated city in the world in a
00:28:30
country that boasts an overall population of 1.2 billion finding Kohli was compared to looking for a needle in
00:28:38
a haystack as India shares borders with Nepal China Bhutan Myanmar Pakistan and Bangladesh
00:28:48
investigators also couldn't rule out the possibility that Kohli had already fled
00:28:53
to one of these neighboring countries despite the challenges British police and tannaz family refused to give up on
00:29:01
the search for her killer with Hilary Foster later explaining as parents we had this absolute drive that nobody
00:29:10
could ever get away with doing this to our daughter from England sherlynda contacted her husband's family in

Chandigarh a city in the Punjab region approximately 150 miles north of Delhi colles family confirmed he had recently
00:29:29
been staying in town although admitted his arrival was completely unexpected as his mother had
00:29:36
already been in a coma for three months and he hadn't mentioned any previous plans of visiting her there was a
00:29:44
collective sense of denial running through the family with Coley's police officer brother-ish pre refusing to
00:29:51
consider he was a murderer the morning after she Linda's phone call Friday March 28th colleague shaved his head and
00:30:00

00:30:17
Celinda told police that someone was attempting to frame her husband revealing that on the day after Hannah's
00:30:24
disappearance he returned home noticeably upset with a visible scratch on his face when she asked him what was
00:30:32
wrong he explained that the night before he had been drinking at a pub and when he returned to his van
00:30:39
someone had gained access to the vehicle and stashed the body of a teenage girl inside he panicked and drove straight
00:30:47
home unsure what to do after telling Schillinger this story Kali slept for a couple of hours before getting into the
00:30:57
van and driving off the window Chahal the general secretary of Southampton's Gurdwara Sikh temple told police that
00:31:08
two days prior to his overseas escape Kaali called him several times in tears requesting a meeting Baal window was
00:31:17
reluctant as he had lent money to Kali in the past and it was nervous he was going to ask for more but he visited the
00:31:25
distraught man regardless as anticipated Kali wanted to borrow money this time to
00:31:32
travel to India to see his sick mother before she passed away he was acting erratically all his
00:31:40
belongings were piled into garbage bags and - there was a distinct scratch under

his eye Bell window asked what was wrong and coldly explained his parents-in-law
00:31:51
had arranged to have someone beat him up Bell window refused to hand over the cash and - the next day he received the
00:32:00

00:32:18
came back revealing the semen found in his delivery van was a match to the DNA profile found on Hannah's coat the blood
00:32:28
spatter and hairs found in the van were also confirmed to have come from the teenager certain they had identified the
00:32:37
men responsible for Hannah's murder on Thursday April 3 an international warrant was issued for Coley's arrest
00:32:45
charging the fugitive with murder manslaughter kidnapping false imprisonment rape and perverting the
00:32:52
course of justice in England a person can be charged simultaneously with both murder and manslaughter with a jury
00:33:02
later deciding which of the two the defendant is guilty of whilst Britain had extradition agreements in place with
00:33:10
India bureaucratic red tape coupled with the fact that Koli was hiding in one of
00:33:16
the most - densely populated countries in the world meant carrying out the arrests would be no easy task on the
00:33:26
morning of Friday April 11 a statement was released by the foster family ahead of Hannah's funeral service which was
00:33:33
scheduled to take place later that day the statement read today family and friends are joining together to give
00:33:43
thanks for the life of Hannah nothing can bring our beautiful daughter back to us and today will not be easy
00:33:51
for any of us but we will find a strength in each other and strength in the continued support given to us by
00:33:58
members of the community in Southampton and beyond seats inside high field church were reserved for hundreds of
00:34:07
Hannah's friends relatives schoolmates teachers enter the detectives working around the clock to solve her case while
00:34:15
the service was also broadcast via video link to an adjacent church center for the many others who were unable to fit
00:34:23
inside loudspeakers outside the building transmitted the service to the crowds of
00:34:29
media and community members who had gathered to pay their respects the service was overseen by Reverend Graham
00:34:37
Archer who told the congregation quote publicity surrounding Hannah's death has elevated her to almost the celebrity
00:34:46
status but those of you who knew her as a friend or a family member should not let anyone rob you of your memories of
00:34:54
how you remember her your memories cannot be taken away they are part of her legacy to you today the
00:35:04
memories will have a painful edge but they didn't when they happened so don't be afraid to talk about her and to those
00:35:11
precious memories her killer has already taken one life in your handling of your
00:35:19
responses make sure he takes no more Hana's eco-friendly woven bamboo coffin was carried out of the church by members
00:35:30
of her family adorned with a wreath of pink flowers especially provided by a local florist where she had once
00:35:37
conducted work experience she was cremated in a private service as students at her former high school
00:35:45
gathered on faculty grounds through at least 200 white balloons into the sky on Wednesday April 30 a trio of Hampshire
00:35:58
investigators flew to India to liaison person with Indian law enforcement the British High Commission and
00:36:04
international police organization Interpol their efforts to locate Kohli were hindered when the Ministry of
00:36:12
External Affairs refused to grant the British law enforcement team entry into the Punjab region rendering them unable
00:36:20
to speak to colleagues family and to gather information although Indian police understood the
00:36:28
urgency of the investigation they had their own overwhelming caseloads to take care of and were unable to prioritize
00:36:35
the murder of a foreign national that occurred 4,000 miles away this restrictive bureaucracy coupled with the
00:36:44
lack of resources available to the British investigators cast serious doubts over whether their suspect would
00:36:51
ever be found by early May with investigators in India struggling to make headway colles wife
00:36:59
she Linda released a public statement pleading for her husband to return to the United Kingdom and surrender to
00:37:06
police for questioning it read for my sake and to the good of your children and your family I urge you
00:37:15
to hand yourself in to police and to come back home so this can be sorted out wherever you are please just go to the
00:37:24
nearest police station and give yourself up if you are innocent this is the only
00:37:29
way you can clear your name so please to come home following this the Hampshire detectives were finally
00:37:40
granted permission to enter the Punjab region and headed straight to Callie's hometown of Chandigarh to interview his
00:37:47
family they maintained - they were not hiding him and insisted they had no idea where he had fled - with his father
00:37:56
jagad Jean telling the press I say if he has committed this crime hang him I will be the last person to protect him
00:38:06
if he has done this brave crime he should be punished and he should face the music he should face the
00:38:14
consequences but I will not protect him and if he's innocent God will protect him after two weeks in
00:38:25
India the Hampshire law enforcement team returned to the United Kingdom with greater support from both Chandigarh
00:38:31
detectives and to the Punjab authorities who were now actively searching for the
00:38:36
suspected killer however the case moved slowly with Chandigarh police criticised
00:38:43
for what the public perceived as a lack of action Detective Inspector Dinko Gupta who was initially leading the
00:38:52
Indian inquiry explained by the time all the paperwork was completed the suspect
00:38:59
had a big head start he had a lot of time to plan his moves I feel confident we should be able to
00:39:07
find him but it's difficult to say how soon Hampshire detectives continued to travel to India over the following
00:39:15
months at one point teaming up with the premier investigating agency in their country the Indian Central Bureau of
00:39:23
Investigation rumors circulated that Kohli had been spotted across the border in the Nepalese city of Kathmandu but
00:39:32
there was no evidence to support this theory month continued to pass by with no major
00:39:39
progress in the investigation and by early 2004 Hampshire police announced the reward of 70,000 parents for anyone
00:39:47
with information that led to Coley's arrest this amounted to roughly 5 million rupees a potentially
00:39:56
life-changing payment but insufficient attention from India's national media limited the populations awareness of the
00:40:03
case which prevented tips from coming in in February Britain's Home Secretary David Blunkett
00:40:11
paid a visit to the Punjab Police Academy where he appealed to the Punjabi people to assist police in capturing
00:40:19
Kohli quote not only in the interests of justice but because he is wanted for questioning for the most heinous of

the investigation languished for close to a year with Kohli remaining a free man whose whereabouts were unknown if
00:45:49
Hannah had still been alive she would have since celebrated her 18th birthday and completed her a-level exams
00:45:56
moving on to pursue medical studies at university on Friday March 12 2004 two days prior to the one-year anniversary
00:46:06
of her murder Hilary and Trevor foster released a statement via the media which read this continues to be the worst time
00:46:15
in our lives we miss Hannah terribly the injustice of her death is intensified by the knowledge that her
00:46:22
killer is still at large we remain optimistic that the combined efforts of the Hampshire and Punjab police forces
00:46:30
to secure an arrest will prove successful on Sunday March 14 to mark the one-year anniversary a candlelit
00:46:39
morning prayer service was held in honor of her and her family at Highfield church assistant Reverend Paul Harris
00:46:47
told the 100 strong congregation to send a special prayer to the foster family during what he called a time of
00:46:54
continuing pain and suffering and desire for justice three months later in June 2004 Hilary and Trevor foster fronted a
00:47:06
press conference announcing they would be traveling to India for the first time in an effort to generate media attention
00:47:13
and raise local awareness of the search for their daughter's killer regarding the purpose of their visit
00:47:20
Trevor explained I think there was at the start and issue of vengeance but I think in now that feeling is reducing if
00:47:30
it wasn't that would bring us down to the same level as him what we want now is justice that will mean a lot to us
00:47:39
and a lot to Hannah we are increasingly frustrated that the prime suspect has not been located we
00:47:47
are however beginning to understand the difficulties of finding a fugitive who does not want to be found
00:47:53
in a country as large and populous as India the couple embarked on an 11 day visit to India on Saturday July 10
00:48:03
joined by detective Superintendent Alan Betts who had been leading the British investigation into Hanna's murder
00:48:11
Trevor's employer British multinational oil and gas company BG Group funded a bilingual 24-hour phone lines for
00:48:19
witnesses to provide any information about Coley's whereabouts posters were circulated around the Punjab region
00:48:27
promoting the hotline phone number and the 5 million rupees award along with images of Kohli in different disguises
00:48:36
Hilary and Trevor spent the first few days of their trip attending various meetings with Indian politicians Punjab
00:48:43
police and officials from the British High Commission they held two press conferences where they shared Hannah's
00:48:50
story promoted the hotline number and pleaded for anyone with information to come forward
00:48:57
Trevor said this has been the first time we have felt strong enough for us the grieving process goes on and on but we
00:49:07
now feel we can cope with all this Hilary added we just want people to hear our story see us and hear what we have
00:49:16
to say I hope and pray that they will use the hotline the Fosters ordeal struck a chord with
00:49:27
the Indian people giving Hannah's murder investigation a desperately needed boost
00:49:33
within the first 24 hours of the hotline launch alone 134 calls came through and
00:49:40
by July 15 police had amassed close to a dozen tips they believed could be valuable in the hunt for Coley one of
00:49:49
the calls was placed by a taxi driver named - Jason Letcher who lived in the city of Darjeeling
00:49:56
1,700 kilometers northeast of Chandigarh he had seen the news reports about Hanna's killer and - noticed the suspect
00:50:05
bore a resemblance to one of his customers a man he knew only is Mike Mike had told Jason he was a delivery
00:50:14
driver on vacation from London and - that his family remained in the United Kingdom
00:50:19
each morning without fail Mike purchased the daily newspapers as soon as they went on sale and quickly skimmed through
00:50:27
the headlines before discarding the paper within minutes in addition to Jason lectures witness
00:50:35
account at Darjeeling hotel owner called the tipline to report a previous guest who looked like Koli but went by the
00:50:43
name Mike Dennis a barber and a newsagent in Darjeeling also recognised Koli is one of their customers and a
00:50:52
police officer from a neighboring state reported Koli bore a resemblance to one of his friends and new husband's
00:51:00
according to the officer his 32 year old friend bahar adidas was carrying out humanitarian work at a vaccination
00:51:08
clinic in the town of kalimpong 50 kilometres outside of Darjeeling there she met a doctor for the United Nations
00:51:17
World Health Organisation named Micah Dennis and - the two were married - just three months later the officer handed
00:51:26
investigators all the information he had on Dennis including his mobile number and the residential addresses of his
00:51:33
wife's family members when local police descended on these addresses they found no sign of Kohli at
00:51:42
one property a resident informed police that market Dennis had departed on a bus
00:51:47
to Nepal with his wife the day prior this was bad news for investigators as the United Kingdom had no extradition
00:51:56
treaty with Nepal if Kohli managed to cross the border from India into Nepal there was every
00:52:03
chance he would be out of their grasp for good police informed authorities near the border to be on the lookout for
00:52:11
a man fitting Coley's description who would likely be accompanied by a woman Hilary and Trevor Foster were still in
00:52:20
the midst of their media appealing India when they received a word the man in de
00:52:24
Pal Singh Kohli had been arrested after being cited by an off-duty police officer in the vicinity of the Nepalese
00:52:31
border the couple appeared at a press conference immediately following news of the arrest where the crowds of
00:52:39
journalists cheered upon hearing confirmation that Kohli was finally in custody after 16 months on
00:52:45
the run the Fosters thanked all those involved for their tireless work in bringing hannah's killer to justice with
00:52:54
trevor saying never in our wildest dreams did we expect an arrest to be made while we were in the middle of this
00:53:01
short visit we owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the Indian people not only have they come forward to facilitate the
00:53:10
arrest but they have taken Hilary and dire to their hearts in the short time we have been here the full story of
00:53:21
Coley's evasion was soon revealed upon fleeing England on March 18 2003 he holed up in his hometown of Chandigarh
00:53:30
fleeing once he discovered the British police were on to him he headed south to the city of Bangalore where he operated
00:53:39
under three aliases Mike Denis Mike Davis and Denis Tracy after seven months of maintaining a low
00:53:48
profile he moved to Darjeeling where he claimed to be a doctor for the World Health Organization and earned a job at
00:53:55
a Red Cross camp near kalimpong where he administered hepatitis vaccinations to children it was here that he meant
00:54:04
bahara T das the daughter of the camp's director and to the two soon began dating Kali who was living as Mike
00:54:13
Dennis made a no mention of his wife and children back in the UK after three months the couple were married
00:54:22
celebrating the occasion with a modest reception at a hotel nearby Hardy's family home photos taken at the event
00:54:31
portrayed a happy and relaxed piccoli as he danced in a circle surrounded by guests just three weeks later he
00:54:39
received an anonymous phone call after which he was noticeably on edge he told his new wife to pack a bag and to get
00:54:47
ready to leave town but refused to explain why as the media coverage of Hilary and Trevor Foster's trip to India
00:54:57
began to spread Kohli and by Hardy fled to the home of a relative in a village just half an hour from the border of
00:55:04
Nepal where they were apprehended shortly after the arrest came as a profound shock to be Hardy who had no
00:55:13
idea she was married to an international fugitive wanted for murder in an interview following his arrest
00:55:21
she told journalists I loved him so much I know what the police are saying about
00:55:28
him but I still cannot believe it is true what am I to do I have been married but now I have no husband in our society
00:55:40
no one will ever want to marry me now I'm finished I am old goods who was suspected to Coley's brothers
00:55:52
ish Preet and armor it had been in contact with him throughout his time on the run harboring him during his time in
00:55:59
Chandigarh and supplying him with money and a fake passport to facilitate his new life
00:56:06
police also believed that ish Preet who was a constable in Chandigarh sent Kali emails about the international efforts
00:56:14
that were underway to find him enabling him to get a head start and evade capture one month after the arrest Kohli
00:56:26
made an appearance on Indian television channel New Delhi TV saying he wanted to
00:56:31
unburden himself by revealing the truth about what happened to Hana foster he appeared calm as he made a full
00:56:39
confession sparing no details as he described the night of March 14 2003 which started with a heavy drinking
00:56:48
session at a local pub as he left the venue Kohli saw Hana crossing the road alone and he climbed
00:56:56
into his van conducted a u-turn and grabbed her from behind threatening her to stay quiet he forced her into his
00:57:06
company van driving her to an isolated place and sexually assaulting her afterwards she threatened to tell her
00:57:14
parents and police about the attack which provoked Kali to strangle her to death
00:57:19
quote I was out of my mind it was only later that I realized I had destroyed my life colleague claimed he never told his
00:57:32
wife in England to Linda about the attack instead explaining he was home late that night because he had gotten
00:57:39
into a fight at the pub this contradicted sure Linda's previous statements to police in which she
00:57:46
claimed Kali had informed her there was a teenager's body in his van Colly claimed he fled to India because
00:57:53
he needed his brothers support and wanted to change his life tired of running and ready to face the
00:58:00
consequences Coley remarked I am unburdening myself now because one day I have to face God I want to open my heart
00:58:11
I feel light unburdened when asked if he wanted to say anything to Hannah's family Koli remained silent up until
00:58:26
this point his wife in India the Haredi had been convinced of his innocence praying he would be released for the
00:58:33
crime she believed he was wrongfully accused of committing after seeing the televised confession she told The Times
00:58:41
of India newspaper she felt cheated but also relieved that Koli had not harmed her during their short relationship
00:58:49
quote now I have to learn to live with the fact that I lived with a criminal why did God have to make me live with a
00:58:59
criminal days after the confession was aired Koli retracted his statement claiming the Punjab Police had forced
00:59:09
him to provide the false confession due to the retraction media outlets in Britain were prohibited from publishing
00:59:17
anything about the confession and the extradition process became even more challenging efforts to deport Kaali to
00:59:28
face trial in England began in October 2004 seemingly determined to make the process as difficult as possible he
00:59:37
accused the Hampshire police of being racist and argued he wouldn't receive a fair trial in England due to prejudice
00:59:43
against Asians he claimed to be unwell and failed to show up for court appointments leading to force the
00:59:52
Germans as he had done so from the beginning colas brother-ish preached publicly
00:59:59
spoke out in support of his brother telling the media he had been framed on a count of his race colles first wife sure
01:00:08
Linda traveled to India from the UK to attend the extradition hearing and to testify on her husband's behalf despite
01:00:15
him having since married another woman she claimed the statement she supplied to police during her husband's time on
01:00:23
the run in which he came home the day after Hannah's abduction nervous with a scratch on his face and talking about
01:00:30
the body of a teenage girl being in his van was a complete fabrication coerced by Hampshire police she also filed an
01:00:40
affidavit alleging British officials had held her hostage refusing to let her travel to India until they came under
01:00:47
international pressure to do so colles second wife the herati had another change of heart and once again became
01:00:56
convinced of his innocence speaking out in his defence in a 2005 interview with Times of India
01:01:04
she said she hoped her husband would be cleared of the crimes and returned to live with her the extradition process
01:01:11
continued for several years with Trevor and Hilary foster returning to India on numerous occasions in an attempt to
01:01:19
speed up the legal proceedings and ensure the case remained in the news they spoke publicly about how
01:01:26
emotionally exhausting and frustrating it was that the process was taking so long but acknowledged there was little
01:01:33
that could be done in the indian system to help bring them justice sooner in february 2007 as the four year
01:01:43
anniversary of Hannah's murder approached Hilary foster told the Southern daily echo newspaper everything
01:01:51
is still focused on Hannah's death everything we read and hear is about the night she died we want to focus on the
01:02:00
happy times and we can't do this until all this is over I need to get it all right out of my head and hope that the
01:02:08
lovely memories come back after more than 100 court proceedings and 35 Appeals Delhi's High Court judge
01:02:19
finally determined there was sufficient evidence for Coley to face trial in the UK for Hannah's murder
01:02:25
on Saturday July 28 2007 exactly three years after his arrest Coley was extradited to England where he was
01:02:35
formally charged with the murder manslaughter rape and false imprisonment of Hannah Foster as well as perverting
01:02:43
the course of justice he was the first person successfully extradited from India to the UK
01:02:54
colles trial began on Monday October 13 2008 at the Winchester Crown Court the now 41 year-old had pleaded not guilty
01:03:04
to all charges with the reductant confession he made on Indian television deemed inadmissible in court the
01:03:12
prosecution had to rely on the physical and circumstantial evidence available including the DNA and CCTV footage
01:03:20
Hannah's mobile phone records and the recording of her 999 call an enhanced version of the call was played to the
01:03:29
jury with Hilary and Trevor Foster telling the court the fear in their daughters voice was palpable colles
01:03:38
defence team attempted to pin the crime on their clients former Hazelwood food supervisor James Dennis who in tipped
01:03:45
police off about Kali in the early days of the investigation in the years before
01:03:51
Hannah's murder James had Alan collie 16,000 pounds to help him sort his life out but instead Coley had gambled the
01:04:00
money away when James demanded he repaid the money Kaali ordered the debt be cleared
01:04:06
threatening to go public with a fictitious rumor that he had an affair with the James's wife in response to
01:04:14
this attempt at blackmailing Kaali claimed that James and his brother orchestrated an elaborate revenge plot
01:04:21
against him wherein he was abducted the deploying faltered and to then forced to rape Hannah foster justifying
01:04:29
why his semen had been found in his van and on her clothing James Dennis took the stand to family denied these
01:04:37
allegations with his wife also testifying she barely knew Callie and had never been romantically involved
01:04:44
with him prosecution lawyer Nicholas Hagan accused Coley of being a self-confessed - lawyer saying he had
01:04:53
five and a half years to concoct this wild and elaborate story quote you have told the jury what you did to Hannah
01:05:02
but you substituted yourself instead of her on Tuesday November 25 2008 after six weeks of trial and five hours of
01:05:15
deliberations the jury reached a verdict finding Maninder Pal Singh Kohli guilty
01:05:22
of Hannah Foster's murder he showed a no emotion as the verdict was delivered slightly shaking his head while Hannah's
01:05:31
family openly wept prior to sentencing a victim impact statement prepared by Hilary Foster was read to the court by
01:05:41
Hannah's art moving several members of the jury to tears hilary spoke of the pain her family had
01:05:49
endured upon not only losing hannah under the most violent of circumstances but from the prolonged suffering kali
01:05:56
had caused by purposefully evading police detection fighting extradition proceedings and arguing that his human
01:06:04
rights be respected when he had so callously disregarded her daughter's right to life she said had it not been
01:06:12
for her other daughter Sarah she would have lost the will to live Hilary statement read when a mother gives birth
01:06:23
she has an immediate instinctive need to nurture and protect her child I would give anything to change places with
01:06:31
Hannah to take away the terror and pain she suffered that night for the rest of my life I will feel the guilt that I
01:06:40
wasn't there when she needed me most she died terrified and alone with an evil stranger I feel as though Coley has
01:06:49
ripped out my heart and stamped on it Hannah was a gentle peace-loving girl who was never able to cope with the
01:06:57
raised voices and certainly not any threat of violence she would have been frozen with fear unable to run or fight
01:07:06
the proverbial lamb to the slaughter we cherish every moment we spent with Hannah we have so many happy memories I
01:07:17
can see her near running along the beach with Sarah stopping to practice her ballet exercises so slight and graceful
01:07:26
hardly leaving a footprint in the sand I miss her quiet ways snuggled up with a book in the garden or cuddling up with
01:07:35
her father on the seti to sneak some warmth I missed those intimate chats I miss her so much
01:07:44
the sense of loss is unbearable we are heartbroken and we'll always remain so Hannah your short life enriched the
01:07:55
lives of so many people you'll never be forgotten loved forever my darling little girl may you now rest
01:08:07
in peace presiding judge justice Keith addressed Koli directly as he said it took a long time for you to be brought
01:08:19
to justice but the law caught up with you in the end the jury saw through your lies and
01:08:26
you stand to they're exposed there's a heartless and contemptible man who abducted and raped a 17 year old girl
01:08:33
with everything to live for enter then callously and quite premeditatedly took her life so she would not be able to
01:08:41
point the finger of guilt at you for Hannah's murder Koli was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 24
01:08:51
years to run concurrently with an additional 12 years for rape and six years for false imprisonment and
01:08:58
kidnapping taking into account time served awaiting extradition to the UK the sentence means Koli will be eligible
01:09:07
for parole in 2030 at the age of 63 yah side court the foster family voice to their disappointment in the sentence
01:09:19
saying they believed Coley's should spend the rest of his life in prison Trevor foster said this sentence gives
01:09:29
him the right to a second chance at life a second chance he never gave hannah to
01:09:36
seek Allah's life are valued in this way when he showed such utter disregard for
01:09:41
Hannah's is hurtful beyond measure the punishment should fit the crime in this case it certainly did not the
01:09:54
desperate and discrete 999 call placed by Hannah foster on the night of her abduction was discussed during her
01:10:01
murder trial with prosecution lawyer Nicholas Hagin telling the court Hanna probably thought that the operator would
01:10:09
have listened to the conversation and work out that she was being held against her will and that the operator would
01:10:16
contact the police unfortunately Hanna would not have known that there was a system in place to
01:10:23
prevent accidentally dialed emergency calls from blocking up the system Hanna's call was disconnected after only
01:10:31
a very short time and so there was no response to her attempt to get help to avoid similar situations from happening
01:10:42
again the UK police watchdog launched a campaign to raise awareness of 999 silent solutions feature an instruction
01:10:52
guide released by the independent office for police conduct advised callers to tap a button or cough into the phone if
01:10:59
they find themselves unable to speak directly to the emergency services operator the silent solutions feature
01:11:07
that required callers to dial fire five to receive assistance was also heavily publicized a requisite that may have
01:11:15
impacted Hannah's fate had she been aware following Coley's arrest the reward money was distributed between a
01:11:24
dozen Indian citizens who provided police with pivotal information that led to his capture
01:11:31
taxi driver jason Letcher was one recipient receiving five thousand pounds for alerting police to koley's presence in
01:11:39
Darjeeling Jason had come from a poor family but had benefited from a quality education
01:11:46
and it had always been his dream to open a school that provided free education for underprivileged children using his
01:11:55
portion of the reward money he purchased the plot of land in a small village in a
01:12:00
remote poor area in northeast India and in 2005 opened a free school named the Hana Memorial Academy
01:12:10
Jason stated more than the money it is the feeling of having helped the police NAB such a dangerous criminal that made
01:12:20
me happy a year later Jason picked up two British tourists who were visiting Darjeeling
01:12:28
and told them about the school the couple Christine Browning and Roger Michael Avadi visited the facility and
01:12:36
were inspired to help upon returning to the UK they tracked down the foster family to tell them about the great
01:12:44
efforts Jason was making in honor of their daughter they began collecting charitable donations and books to send
01:12:52
to India with the Hana Memorial Academy soon growing to accommodate 125 students
01:12:58
a new road has since been constructed to gain better access to the school with the mayor of Darjeeling naming it the
01:13:07
Hana Memorial Road a local doctor visits the school regularly to provide free checkups and
01:13:15
treatments to the pupils with the school now serving as a polio vaccination Center making it a fitting tribute to
01:13:23
Hanna who dreamed of one day becoming a doctor a statement from Hillary and Trevor foster on the school's website
01:13:31
reads losing Hanna in such circumstances has made us overly cynical and distrustful finding out that this school
01:13:42
project is a genuine philanthropic gesture from Jason has gone a long way to restoring our faith in human nature
01:13:50
we thank him for naming the school after Hanna which has made us both very grateful and very proud she had a huge
01:13:59
appetite for learning we're sure that will rub off on all those bright idea children who will benefit from this
01:14:06
school in South Hampton at the rear of high field church an 18-inch and bronze statue of a dancing girl titled the
01:14:17
spirit of youth has been erected in Hanna's honor accompanied by a plaque which reads Hannah was a much admired
01:14:26
and respected student bright friendly intelligent and caring not only towards her fellow students but also her love
01:14:36
and respect for the world we live in as a talented dancer herself this figure brimming with energy and
01:14:44
grace is designed to be an inspiration to other young people it's the same church where he is earlier Hannah was
01:14:53
solemnly fair world by her family friends and to the greater South Hampton community during the poignant service
01:15:02
her friend Haley had delivered a poem which read Hannah Hannah softly dream of a Golden Sun in a valley of green I feel
01:15:16
your magic everywhere in the breeze on my face and the Sun in my hair dance through the mountains and skip down the
01:15:25
