New photo Cops probing gangland boss John ‘Goldfinger’ Palmer’s death look at possible links to string of unsolved killings

POLICE investigating the death of gangland boss John ‘Goldfinger’ Palmer are said to be looking into possible links with a string of other unsolved killings.

The underworld kingpin’s life of violence and crime ended three years ago when he was killed in his garden by a mystery assassin who has never been found.

Now cops are probing the death of a Brit couple in Tenerife and the death of Palmer’s former henchman, The Mirror reports.

They are also looking at the 2005 killing of a former British soldier in Tanzania and the death of a timeshare boss in Spain five years later.

A spokeswoman for Essex police told the paper: “We are committed to solving this murder and are continuing to explore a number of lines of inquiry.

“We are aware of these cases and have explored them.”

Expats Billy and Flo Robinson operated in an office used by 64-year-old Palmer.

They were found brutally murdered near their Canary Island home in Tenerife in 2006 and there were fears they were killed by Eastern Europeans trying to get in on the timeshare market.

Who was John ‘Goldfinger’ Palmer?

Palmer went from market trader to multi-millionaire via fraud, racketeering and money laundering.

He earned his nickname after melting down gold bars from the £26million Brink’s-Mat robbery in 1983.

Long time criminal Palmer was jailed at the Old Bailey for eight years for swindling 16,000 timeshare holiday customers out of £33m.

The gang boss was also suspected of selling proceeds from the £10m Hatton Garden jewellery heist.

And years previously he had been arrested over the £26m gold bullion robbery at Heathrow airport in 1983.

In June, 2018, police revealed that Palmer’s hitman spied on him through a hole in his fence.

Cops said the contract killer leapt over the 5ft fence and opened fire with a .32 revolver fitted with a silencer.

An officer present at the Chelmsford inquest into his death said police had followed up 700 leads and taken 200 witness statements.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
