Police investigating the disappearance of 54-year-old Maris Ile are searching an allotment site in King's Lynn.
Maris was reported missing on 23 November 2024. Detectives from the Norfolk and Suffolk Major Investigation Team declared the case a ‘no body’ murder investigation after enquiries over time led them to believe Maris has come to harm.
Four men and a woman arrested at addresses in King's Lynn, Norwich and Peterborough on Tuesday (11 March 2025) on suspicion of murder have been released on police bail until 11 June 2025.
Officers have been conducting extensive enquiries including searches of numerous addresses and vehicles and last night those searches moved to an allotment site in North Lynn.
Detective Superintendent Phill Gray from the Norfolk and Suffolk Major Investigation Team said: "Members of the public are likely to see some increased police activity in North Lynn over the coming days.
"I would like to reassure people that we are doing extensive searches and have a team of dedicated detectives working on this investigation to establish the facts around the circumstances of Maris' disappearance.
"I'd ask anyone who may have any information - no matter how insignificant they think that information might be - to let us know".
Anyone with information regarding Maris' disappearance is urged to contact Norfolk Police.
