He is accused of killing the teenager, whose body was found in a ditch five days after she was last seen alive

A man has appeared in court charged with the kidnap and murder of 17-year-old Victoria Hall, who vanished on her way home from a nightclub in 1999. Steve Wright, 66, rested his arms on a table as he appeared at Ipswich Magistrates’ Court by video-link from custody.

The girls left the club at around 1am the following morning and parted ways at around 2.20am. That was the last time Victoria was seen alive. He also stated his date of birth during the hearing, which lasted less than five minutes, and confirmed he could hear the proceedings and that he was not recording them. The court was told that Wright, formerly of London Road, Ipswich, is accused of the kidnap of Victoria in Felixstowe on September 19 1999 and of her murder in Stowupland on the same date.
