Charlene Downes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charlene Downes (March 25, 1989 - on or after November 1, 2003) was a teenager from Blackpool, Great Britain, who was murdered at age of 14.
Charlene disappeared on November 1, 2003. She has never been seen since then and her body has not been found. In March 2006 two men were charged with her murder. These two men were owners of a takeaway restaurant, and a local newspaper reported that they cut up and disposed body of their victim in the food sold at the restaurant. Far right organisations in Britain criticised the mainstream media for suppressing the information about the murder because the two accused men are foreign born (from Jordan and Iran).
