There’s been a breakthrough in the case of Lord Lucan and it is claimed that a mystery man living in Australia is the runaway Earl, but there’s been many previous sightings of the figure that were later debunked
A facial recognition expert claims an elderly man living in Australia is a definite match for runaway murderer Lord Lucan, as the algorithm linking the killer to a man in Oz is “never wrong”. The frail man living in a small town just outside Brisbane, capital of the state of Queensland, has been reported as Lucan, who would now be 87 – and the image has been blurred for legal reasons.
There have been reported sightings in Ireland, South Africa and New Zealand previously, and there were even claims that he fled to India and lived life as a hippy. Another sighting was reported at an ex-Nazi colony in Paraguay, so here we’ve rounded up some of the conspiracy theories surrounding his disappearance.
What do you think happened to Lord Lucan? Let us know in the comments…
November 7th marks the 48th anniversary of the day Lucan murdered family nanny Sandra Rivett before he disappeared and was never found.
