I thought the same thing because it was just a couple days ago that Kendall Rae covered a case about a young girl that went missing and the cops didn’t take it seriously. They thought she was just a runaway and it wasn’t until about 3 weeks later that they actually took it somewhat seriously. Of course by then there were no leads or clues to go on. Her name is Ali Lowitzer and she’s never been found. I’m really happy to hear that the officers in Hannah’s case took this seriously and actually did their job to help find her and her killer.

I don't think he's this random dude that one day decided to abduct rape and murder this girl. I absolutely LOVE that her parents were able to go to India and show him that he was NOT going to get away with doing something like this to their daughter. They made sure that he had to answer for his crime even if he refuses to admit to it.

Same here. I get a feeling he had more success raping possibly drunk girls and threatening them to stay quiet so he thought it would happen again

YES, that quote immediately made me suspect Hannah wasn't his only victim as soon as I heard it. It's just such a weird and suggestive thing to say, almost like a vague brag about him getting away with something else. I also seriously doubt she'd have been his last victim were it not for the steadfastness of her parents, who were amazing in this case. I still think 24 years is too lenient though. For very deliberate, calculated, cold murder and rape like this, a "life sentence" should ACTUALLY be a life sentence, not a pathetic "life but not really" sentence.

Such a sad case, started reading more on Wikipedia and came across this which I thought I would share. "An important link to the arrest of Kohli was information from taxi driver Jason Lepcha, who was regularly hired by Kohli partly because of his understanding of English. Lepcha, one of 12 reward recipients, received ₹367,000 for his role in the arrest.[8][9] He used this money to buy land to establish a school for disadvantaged children which was named The Hannah Memorial Academy in Foster's memory.[9][10] When visiting Darjeeling in 2006, Foster's parents heard his story, and on their return to England, worked with others to set up a registered charity which supports Lepcha's school.[3]"

This case is so similar to Toyah Cordingly's murder in Australia. Indian husband and father moved to Australia, raped and murdered a girl, then jumped on a plane back to India and deserted his poor family and kids. After YEARS of indian police doing nothing, Australian detectives went over there - They offered a million dollar reward and within weeks caught him and dragged him back to Australia a few weeks ago. He's finally been charged with her murder.

[@martinchalk3799]

The Australian detectives probably knew about this Hannah Foster case as it was the first time somebody was successfully extradited from India to the UK (which is in itself a mammoth task). The UK detectives together with the Sun newspaper offered the reward as they knew it was the only chance of finding a criminal in India as the Indian police are so corrupt...and still are. Fortunately for the Australian detectives Rajwinder Singh waived his right to challenge the extradition. Unfortunately for the UK detectives Kohli challenged the extradition and the case underwent 100 court proceedings and 35 appeals delaying his extradition by 3 years.

Yes, his immediate desire to harm Hannah indicates that he is not “new” to committing this level of crime and he has “experience” with it unfortunately.

@@DravenUrei He didn't have a car at this time, that is why the company allowed him to take the van home so there was definitely no body in a car at any time. If he did go home it would have been some time between midnight and 3am on the Saturday morning as he dumped Hannah's body soon after and went to work, I doubt his wife was awake at that time. I don't know whether she ever made such a statement to the police, to corroborate one of her husband's many stories, as I haven't seen the court papers. There is so much misinformation in this video that I doubt his wife even said such a thing. They were selling their house and his wife and children were already living with her parents. The cultural part of this is very interesting. She was born and raised in the UK but had an arranged marriage so culturally she was very Indian. She was abused by her husband, you could often hear them arguing when walking past the house. She would seek refuge at a neighbour's house, an Indian woman who was a family friend. When the police started their investigation this neighbour said she didn't know him. His wife said he wouldn't do such a thing. His family in India said he wouldn't do such a thing and helped him evade justice. When he ran to his family in India his wife phoned him to warn him that he was the suspect and then he disappeared to another part of India and assumed a new identity. His brother, a serving police office, helped him with his new identity and helped him buy a house. The UK police did an amazing job with very little help from the Indian community.

[@jacindafreeman1898]

I live near Southampton and remember seeing this case in the news. I never knew how it was resolved or the lengths her brave parents went to to get justice. Thanks for covering

[@callysto11]

God bless Hannah and her family 🙏 That they went and hunted down her murderer ❤ it's an inspiration! In my head I'm thinking "Go get that bastard!"

[@bubblepop_plays]

i am so glad he got charged. What if a British person was living in India and killed a teenage girl and then fled back to the UK? The family in India would want justice, its really crap of Indian police to say he didn't kill Hannah.

[@sophiehughes4522]

I've watched your videos since I was quite young and I'm now at uni studying Criminology. I adore your channel so much 💗

[@phenomskllz2502]

Do you age in dog years ?

[@androgynous_artist]

The “you win some, you loose some” is chilling to me. It makes me think he’s gotten away with crimes before and may even have more victims who’s families will never get the closure of knowing what happened to their loved one. He’s a sick man and it’s just awful he got to say free for 3 extra years after all the work Hannah’s parents had put in. Kudos to mum and dad for they’re amazing determination, it must have been so painful and I hope they’re doing the best they can without their little girl.

[@Catieg1]

This happened just down the road from me and she was found about 5 mins from my house. Still haunts me. These poor parents. 😢

[@everaftermegan]

So proud of the parents for never giving up and putting more effort into finding Hannah’s murderer. So determined . It’s amazing and inspiring . May Hannah rest in peace ❤️

[@trinityrose5203]

Hey, Eleanor! Big fan from Maine here. I'd love to see you cover the Ayla Reynolds case that happened here. She is a 19 month old girl who "disappeared" from her fathers home in 2011, and hasn't been seen since. There was blood found at the scene, and somehow, no one that was at the scene was ever charged or convicted of murder. It's a big unsolved case here.

[@carissathomas5785]

I would've done the same those are truly great parents I am so sorry they lost their baby my heart aches for them their strength is truly amazing wishing them peace for the rest of their lives

[@kirachant5742]

I'm from Southampton and was born a few years after Hannah. Its so weird to hear of all the bars etc I went to. And yes we all went out at 17 with fake I.D too, especially if our close friends were already 18 and going out , for FOMO. I have never heard of this case. It's so sad and hits home when it's a case from your area.

[@R0z_i3_2]

This really proves that parents will do ANYTHING for their children, no one can beat a parents love.

[@klaudianapieraa4924]

Omg I lived in Southampton for 6 years, just moved out 6 months ago and never knew about this case! This one is so close to home that it freaks me out.

[@beaulieuc8910]

exactly I bever heard about it either, this sort of thing women should be aware of

[@addie2816]

On top of the amazing determination and love shown by Hannah's parents for their daughter, shout out to the police who enhanced the 999 call and got valuable info, the public caller who identified the van, and the Indian policeman who managed to recognise the killer and detain him just in time

[@amberar312]

Usually cases get handed poorly, fumbled and delayed when having multiple police forces involved from different countries but this case was lucky in the way that he got identified and taken in by police relatively quickly… The person who identified the van, the taxi driver who was able to identify the perpetrator, the undercover cop who caught him just in time while him and his new wife were about to board the bus to Nepal… and especially the parents. I too love the co-operation of everyone.. Everyone deserves recognition and congratulating. The parents were only in India campaigning for a couple days and he was already caught. It really did this case good, of course it probably would not have been possible without the campaigns from the parents. They did a great job and lead the way for the success of Hannah’s case being solved and justice served!

[@Demigoddess_of_Myself]

I'm 30 minutes in & my high dyslexic ass just realized it says "hunted" not "haunted" 😂

[@makira6279]

i love how much detail you put in each and every one of your videos even if it may take so long collecting all the information

[@kixkicks139]

The world is a terrifying place.

[@carolynconway]

the killer lived a literal stones throw from my family home, this case really shook our city, huge impact

[@martinchalk3799]

Swaythling!!

[@rhiannonjones3867]

toyah cordingley’s case is similar in the way that the murderer fled to india. he was extradited to australia a couple of weeks ago, toyah was murdered in 2018. it’s been a really big case in Queensland since 2018.

[@adrianachong9029]

His wife definitely knew what he did and I do believe she’s an accessory after the fact. She an Indian woman born in the UK and tho she was a housewife, Asians are definitely NOT stupid. Your husband comes home with fresh scratches on his face (probably some bruises elsewhere) and a very hurt back and seeing him in this state he tells you “oh, by the way, I opened my van and saw a dead body. I panicked and just drove home.” No one would believe that. She probably told him to flee and helped make arrangements.

[@prettymesmerizing]

I would classify covering for your murderer husband as really stupid!

[@fabiwilliams4644]

We had a hit & run death here in Australia. The person who did this was a student from India. He escaped back there & did the exact same thing to avoid extradition. His family said Australia was racist & he wouldn't get a fair trial. He faked illness & put up every obstacle. Now 10 years have passed & we still can't get him back here. Ridiculous

[@afrozzz5634]

What’s his name? I hope the victim receives justice

[@armiiii0987]

I'm Indian and I'm honestly not surprised at all by the uncooperativeness of the police, there are so many rape cases in India and most of them are overlooked and prolonged for years which is why these crimes keep happening cuz 70% of the time the criminals get away with it.

[@julieparnell8380]

Girl you know he had other victims!!! I thought it as soon as you said his comment “you win some, you lose some”

[@julietterose1619]

This case is incredible. Very glad he was caught on time.

[@sillishark_47]

I love how respectful Eleanor is

[@seandelap8587]

I salute those parents to going to those lengths to catch that scumbag when law enforcement doesn't act then you're left with no choice but do the job yourself and her parents wouldn't rest until they indeed brought their daughter's killer to justice they clearly loved their daughter dearly

[@nancymoon-rush2888]

Wow. Those parents are so incredibly strong! This creep would have gotten away with his awful, malicious, evil deeds if it wasn't for them. Where was Interpol? Don't they help in cases like this???

[@olivetree8273]

He looks disgusting 🤢

[@olszewski422ify]

Greatest thing in the world.. Eleanor talking about her short attention span, and how she loves the Docs on Magellan because the are 24 minutes. Then immediately goes on to do a 49 minute video.

[@glkmee22]

My heart goes out to Hannah's family and friends. I hope that evil monster gets what he deserves. And, I wanna give Eleanor some appreciation for doing this work. I was working on a film in New Orleans and I was on my way home from the set like around 3am. And I saw a young college student (female) walking alone by herself towards the college grounds. Because of Eleanor's work on bringing these victims stories to light, I decided to let that young lady know that I would stay a respectable distance from her so she won't be frightened by me, but I would watch to make sure she at least get to her campus safely. She insisted that I not do that, but she thanked me for my willingness to look out for her. Had I not been given the details Eleanor lays out from all the cases that she has covered, I probably would have thought twice before closing to stay and watch to make sure that college student got to the buildings safe. I wish so much that someone was looking out for Hannah that night. 😢 God bless you Eleanor. If you are not spiritual or religious, then I simply wish you love, peace, and happiness. Be safe everyone!

[@bethanyrose4260]

The fact that he said "you win some, you lose some" tells me there is a great likelihood that he has done this before and not got caught. Anyone else think that's what he meant by that?

[@eviesgaminglife9897]

I have been listening to you channel for a few months now! I suffer with all mental health problems and insomnia 😢 so I can assure you that listening to your fab story’s, love your channel ❤ so a massive thanks Ellenor you taken me out of a deep hole, and made my mind concentrate on your stories, that enables me not to “over think” keep it up!! From a Yorkshire lass now living in Lancashire 😊

[@sianbeecham2825]

I can agree with that. Take care ❤

[@xjassyjadex]

Southampton is my home town and never once have I heard this story! That poor girl! Thank you for shedding some light on this! ❤

[@trioray9090]

So impressed with these parents; no one is as invested in achieving justice, as the people who suffer the loss. If it were me I would do the same.

[@asamii.x3]

It’s so sad. I swear it’s all ways such amazing and kind people who get murdered…

[@lils.27]

I’m annoyed and mad over so many things on this case but dang. Those false stories makes me even more mad, seriously. Sending love to Hannah’s family.

[@yunyunnie]

not surprised that the cops did nothing. huge respect for hannahs parents

[@YourBaeFromBusan]

It is an amazing privilege to be able to fund such a long, far trip abroad and get media to pay attention to/care about your case. There are many who cannot afford this (or will be ignored completely). I'm glad it worked out though!

[@Itsellieb]

Thank you so much for covering this case Eleanor❤️ This happened just down the road from me and my mum knows Trevor very well, such a loving man and family but such a awful and heartbreaking story:(

[@20dabarr58]

😢 she waited for her friend to get safely on the bus and was later attacked. only a 1/2 mile away from safety.

[@Fairymyst1]

Crime watch live - 10 am on Monday - not as good as the old late night ones - but still on . Thank you for all your content ! Love your style and compassion 🖤🖤🖤

It’s on bbc one - sorry forgot to pop that in there !!!

[@laylaa2001]

I appreciate the work you put into your videos for us, thank u

[@natashinithegreat]

As someone from INDIA, newspaper ads were very common for marriage proposal before matrimony websites were a thing.

[@alexandracedillo9868]

Hello Eleanor just wanted to leave you a suggestion for a case. Would you ever do a case on Selena Quintanilla or Jenni Rivera ?

[@AmberB93]

She has a case suggestion for people to fill out. I believe she lists it in the description section of each video.. If not, then you'll find it on her profile...

[@phoebewhite6759]

this case will always stick with me. I grew up in Southampton and live in the village next to where Hannah’s body was found. Even though I was only little, my parents remember it clearly and I drive past the place she was found nearly every day and always take the time to think of Hannah. Thank you for covering this so well💗

[@lemr88]

So they ignore you if you dont press 55? Maybe you cant press the numbers cause the person taking you walks in the room. Obviously they found suspicious audio in the call but what if the perpetrator sees you and silently shuts off your phone
