'As long as dad hides mum's body, he should not be released'
Linda Razzell vanished on her way to work in Swindon in 2002
"We would like to be able to lay her to rest, to give her the dignity she deserves - and to finally be able to say 'this is over'."
Cat Razzell is speaking about her mother, Linda, who disappeared on her way to work in Swindon in March 2002 when Cat was just 13.
Linda was in the process of divorcing Cat's father, Glyn Razzell, who was later convicted of her murder and sentenced to life in prison.
He has never revealed what happened to Linda and no trace of her has ever been found.
For almost a quarter of a century her family have been left without answers, unable to grieve properly or even hold a funeral.
The case is now under renewed scrutiny after the Parole Board decided in April that he could be released. That decision has since been referred to the High Court, with a two-day hearing held on Monday and Tuesday.
Cat believes her father should not be released until he admits what he did and reveals where her mother's body is.

Razzell, originally from Crewkerne in Somerset, has applied for parole four times. When his application was refused in 2021, he became the first prisoner to be denied parole under Helen's Law.
