Sister of Melanie Hall appeals for help from public

The sister of missing graduate Melanie Hall yesterday made an emotional plea for public help in tracing her. Dominique Hall, 27, urged as many people as possible who attended the Cadillacs nightclub in Bath nine days ago, when her sister disappeared, to come forward to aid police.

She said: "If anyone has still not come forward despite the national publicity, please, please ring the police with any ideas."

Avon and Somerset Police are still processing nearly 1,000 questionnaires filled in by patrons at the club last weekend. But they still had no sighting of the 25-year-old hospital worker leaving the club in Walcot Street.
