Human Remains Found in Leicester Search for Woman Missing Since 2006

Forensic testing will determine whether the discovery is connected to Malgorzata Wnuczek.

Overview

  • Specialist officers uncovered remains on scrubland off Great Central Way near Watkin Road during a renewed search.
  • Leicestershire Police say the identity is unknown and further forensic analysis is under way.
  • A cordon is in place as searches continue at the site, with officers maintaining a visible presence to reassure residents.
  • The operation began on September 30 following information from Polish authorities, with ongoing contact with KWP Bydgoszcz.
  • Wnuczek was last seen boarding a bus from Peter Jackson Logistics in May 2006, and a 2023 River Soar search led to one arrest later released with no further action; no arrests have been announced in relation to the current find.
