Rita Roberts was 31 when she left Cardiff, Wales in February 1992. Her family last heard from her in May 1992, and her unidentified body was discovered in Antwerp on 3 June 1992. An investigation determined that she was a victim of murder. That case remains part of the international effort to request information, identify and seek justice for these deceased women.
Stock said the public’s help was crucial. “We can’t do it alone,” he said.
In the new probe involving 46 cases, police forces will pool analytical capabilities and forensic methods, such as DNA profiling and facial reconstruction.

Interpol has published on its website extracts of so-called Black Notice alerts on the cases, which are requests for information on unidentified bodies traditionally only circulated among police. The alerts include details ranging from biometric data to physical descriptions of the body or clothing.
The site adds: “Each of these deceased women has a story and relatives who deserve answers. We urge anyone with information to come forward and assist in this vital effort.”
Members of the public, particularly those who remember a missing friend or family member, are invited to consult the website and contact the relevant national police team should they have any information. Details can be found on www.interpol.int/IM.
