Sydney woman's suspected remains found eight years after alleged murder

Human remains, believed to be those of missing Sydney woman Nadire Sensoy, have been discovered nearly eight years after her alleged murder. Sensoy vanished from her home in Prospect, in Sydney's west, in December 2018.

An appeal for information and a reward were issued in 2020 regarding the whereabouts of the then 71-year-old. A coronial inquest into her death commenced in 2023 but was halted shortly after the arrest of a 47-year-old man. This man has since been charged with a domestic violence-related murder and is currently facing court proceedings.

Prosecutors intend to argue in court that the accused murdered Ms. Sensoy between December 6 and December 11, 2018, within the Blacktown area. The discovery of the suspected remains was made on Thursday. These remains will undergo a thorough forensic examination to definitively confirm their identity.

Investigations into the case are continuing as authorities work to piece together the events surrounding Ms. Sensoy's disappearance and presumed death.
