The father of missing British backpacker Celena Bridge breaks his silence for the first time in more than 20 years, as police consider laying charges over her death.

Celena was then listed as a missing person, but Mr Bridge immediately suspected something more sinister.

"For my part, I was convinced that something awful had happened, and I said as much at our press conference. The 27-year-old vanished on July 16, 1998 on her way to the Booloumba Creek camp site in Kenilworth where she planned to join a group of birdwatchers she had met in New South Wales. But Mr Bridge said Celena was a confident traveller, having backpacked from an early age with him and his wife, often in remote parts of the world. The family had also visited Australia in the 1980s.
