Luke Durbin
Nineteen-year-old Luke Durbin went missing in the early hours of Friday 12 May 2006.

Luke, from Hollesley, had gone for a night out on Thursday 11 May, leaving his mobile phone and other personal belongings, including his motorbike, at a friends house in Woodbridge.

He went to Zest nightclub in Ipswich with friends, but became separated from them during the evening.

He was reported missing on Saturday afternoon, 13 May, after he failed to return home.

Police enquiries over the weeks that followed encompassed searches on foot, with the force helicopter and with the dog unit, enquiries with over 100 people logged on his mobile phone, chats with friends, family and work colleagues, media appeals by his worried family and extensive enquiries into his lifestyle and habits yet, to date, no trace of Luke has been found.

From the start police were concerned for his welfare. It was very out of character for him to go missing and be out of touch with his mum and sister for any length of time.

Through enquiries via CCTV in businesses and Borough council-run town centre units and information gathered, officers traced Luke's path from Zest, via Ipswich railway station to a taxi-office - Hawk Express in Old Foundry Road - where he made attempts to get transport home. These were not successful so he made his way back towards the town centre bus station.

The last confirmed sighting of Luke is on CCTV, close to the bus station around 4am on Friday 12 May.

Luke is described as white, 5ft 10inches tall, of slim build, with short mousy-coloured wavy hair and blue eyes. At the time of his disappearance he was wearing a black or grey long-sleeved collared shirt, blue jeans and brown suede shoes.

Officers are asking Luke, or anyone with information about where he is now, to contact the duty sergeant at Woodbridge Police Station on 01473 613500.

Amanda Duncan
Mother-of-two Amanda Duncan has been missing since 1993. Amanda, who was 26 when she went missing, disappeared from the Portman Road area of Ipswich on the night of Friday, July 2.

It is believed that the single mum, from Ballliol Close, Woodbridge, had been working as a prostitute. She left two sons - Jamie and Damien, aged three years and nine months at the time of the disappearance.

No-one has heard from Amanda since she went missing, despite intensive local and national publicity. Police are concerned that Amanda may have come to harm; however, no evidence has ever been uncovered to show that she was the vicim of an abduction or attack.

Amanda’s disappearance remains a mystery, and is still an open case.

All new information relating to the case will be fully investigated. Amanda is white, 5ft 7ins tall, of medium build, with fair hair.

She has a distinctive heart-shaped tattoo on her upper arm.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Suffolk Police on 01473 613500 or call Crimestoppers on freephone 0800 555 111.
