Murder appeal logs mystery caller
Carol Lannen
Carol Lannen was killed in March 1979
Detectives investigating the murder of a Dundee mother 29 years ago have said a mystery caller with important information has been back in touch.

The woman had previously given details about the possible identity of a man called Roger - a friend of 18-year-old Carol Lannen.

Police needed more information and appealed through the media for her to contact them again.

Ms Lannen was found dead in Templeton Woods on 21 March, 1979.

At a media conference officers also appealed for any information about how Ms Lannen's bag ended up beside the River Don in Kintore, Aberdeenshire.

They also asked for any sightings of Ms Lannen in the Highwayman pub in Dundee in the weeks before her murder.

Detectives have said they are pleased with the response from the public and have received numerous calls.
