Life sentence for man who murdered partner and dumped her body near A3 in Guildford
A man convicted of murdering his partner and dumping her body near the A3 in Guildford has been given a life sentence.
When he appeared in court today 52 year old Dane Messam from Hackney was told he must spend a minimum of 23 years behind bars.
The body of 41 year old Helen Anderson of Finsbury Park was found in undergrowth beside a slip road by a member of the public in August last year.
Following the discovery Messam, who was involved in an on-off relationship with Helen, was quickly identified as the main suspect.
He was later found driving a red and white decommissioned double decker bus near Bicester and arrested the evening after Helen’s body was discovered (Tuesday 24 August).
