THE gruesome double murder of two men in a central York flat has shocked the city. Detectives have appealed for the public's help in finding the killer or killers.
Today, a drug support worker expressed his fear that the police may face a wall of silence from those who hold key information. The culture of "violence, fear and intimidation" within the drug underworld could stall the inquiry, he said.
We urge anyone who knows something to have the courage to come forward. Two men have been bludgeoned to death. Whoever committed these savage murders must face the full force of justice as soon as possible.
