The original initiative launched to identify 22 women saw about 1,800 tips received from the public.
Global police body Interpol on Tuesday launched a new campaign to identify 46 women whose remains have been found across Europe in unsolved cases, some dating back decades.The initiative from the Lyon-based organization builds on the success of the first Identify Me campaign, which last year helped identify the body of a woman -- dubbed the 'woman with the flower tattoo' -- found murdered 31 years ago in a Belgian river as Briton Rita Roberts.
'The public could be the key to unlocking a name, a past, and in delivering long-overdue justice.'Among the women Interpol is seeking to identify is the body of a woman -- dubbed 'the woman in the suitcase' -- with an estimated age of between 16 and 22. In the autumn of 2005, her corpse was found in a red suitcase lying in the canal in the town of Schiedam in the west of the Netherlands.
