Police still committed to ‘achieving justice’ for Eastbourne seafront murder victim

Police said they are still committed to ‘achieving justice’ for a woman who was murdered on Eastbourne seafront.

Jennifer Kiely, 35, was killed in a seafront shelter near Holywell in 2005.

A fire was reported in a shelter on the lower promenade in the early hours of January 22, 17 years ago tomorrow.

Jennifer’s body, which had been stabbed multiple times, was found in the shelter after being set on fire.

A Sussex Police spokesperson said, “There are currently no new lines of enquiry in the investigation into the murder of Jennifer Kiely in Eastbourne in 2005.

“We received several calls from the public as a result of our latest appeals for information last year but none produced new information.

“However we are still committed to achieving justice for Jennifer and her family if at all possible, and even in the absence of new information the case will be regularly assessed as part of our programme of re-examining unresolved murders.
