And yet, is almost the least interesting part of the mystery

I spend part of my childhood near there, Saddleworth, an eerie place, and of course, forever haunted by the two murderers. But it's also beautiful in a sparse way. Homesick now.

Oddly one of the few remaining parts of the UK that remains in black and white for me. In part because of the murders, still lost body, fixing the place in time, only mourned, not loved. In part the retro obsession with the lost soul and the wildness, not somewhere brought to the warmth of colour pictures, left like Miller's Court, and twinned with cold places where you lose someone, where too early they are gone and the colours bleed. No blue, no green, NO red!!! Lost, stuck, frozen.

I've been over there in the dead of winter - heavy snow and thick fog - and it's an incredibly bleak place. But I rather like bleak.

In the summer, it's different, the heather is out, and the birds are singing. Some good walks on the Pennine Way. But this time of year, wrap up warm. We used to drive across from Barnsley to Oldham, a very nice drive, with interesting village names, Hoylandswain, Ingbirchworth. I wonder if he knew the area.

The last black and white place in the UK will be the Cockbridge to Tomintoul road because it is closed. Some Shetland Isles have never become even black and white but remain gray mist. They will only coalesce into solidity on the day the Donald brings orange.

"Mystery solved".
I don't think so. This story has fascinated me since I first heard about it a year or so ago. Why did this man deliberately divest himself of things that would help to identify him before taking his own life? Why that particular spot?
Now we know who he is and the fact that he came all the way from Pakistan apparently bringing the poison with him to die in that spot! It just begs the question Why?
Apart from his name details about his previous employment, friends, family, etc. nothing else has been released to the media.
It seems to me that far from being solved the mystery has deepened.

India? Confusing Pakistan with India is like confusing Russia with the US.....or China with Japan. :(

Why, were Russia and USA once part of the same country? :-\ ;)

Part of the USA was. The USA bought Alaska from Russia in 1867.
