British police investigating the killing of a 28-year-old woman in London said Thursday they are probing whether she was attacked by a stranger, in a case that sparked new concerns for the safety of women walking the capital's streets.

The Metropolitan Police are calling for information over the killing of primary school teacher Sabina Nessa on Sept. 17 in Kidbrooke, southeast London. Detectives believe she was attacked during what would have been a five-minute walk through a local park on her way to meet a friend at a pub.

Nessa's body was discovered almost 24 hours after her death in a local park by a member of the public. "Sabina's journey should have taken just over five minutes but she never made it to her destination," Detective Inspector Joe Garrity said. "We know the community are rightly shocked by this murder -- as are we -- and we are using every resource available to us to find the individual responsible."A cousin of Nessa told the BBC that the 28-year-old's parents are "inconsolable".
