Missing earl's mobile phone records led police to body

Detectives investigating the disappearance of the Earl of Shaftesbury on the French Riviera revealed yesterday that they had narrowed their hunt by locating the last call to his mobile phone, reports The Guardian.

"Lord Anthony Ashley-Cooper, who was 66, vanished from Cannes five months ago.

A senior French detective who is involved in the investigation said yesterday we managed to find a trace on the computer records which pointed us to that area. He had not made a phone call but there was still a locating trace which recorded whereabouts his phone was when it did not reply."
