Reward offered in murder investigation of woman who went missing in Derby fifteen years ago
Izabela Helena Zablocka's family have not heard from her since 2010
The charity Crimestoppers is offering a reward in exchange for key information relating to the murder investigation of a woman who went missing in Derby 15 years ago.
Izabela Helena Zeablocka's family have not heard from her since 2010, a year after she moved to the UK from Poland for work.
Police say that a missing person report was not made at the time.
Detectives launched an investigation earlier this week which lead them to arresting three people on suspicion of murder.
Two women aged 39 and a man aged 41 have since been released on bail, whilst investigations continue.
Crimestoppers is offering up to £20,000 for information reported anonymously that leads to the conviction of anyone involved in the killing of Izabela Zablocka.
The reward is available for three months and is due to expire on 27 August 2025.
Detective Inspector Kane Martin, from the East Midlands Special Operations Unit, who is leading the investigation, said: “Officers have been working tirelessly to understand the circumstances of Izabela’s disappearance and discover what has happened to her.
“This is a very complex and wide-ranging case and we would urge anyone with any information which could help – no matter how insignificant you may feel it is – to please come forward.
“Izabela’s family need to know what has happened to her and we want to make sure that anyone who is responsible for causing harm to her is brought to justice.”
Lydia Patsalides, East Midlands Regional Manager at the charity Crimestoppers, said: “My heart goes out to Izabela’s family and friends who have spent the last 15 years waiting for answers as to what has happened to her.
“I would urge anyone who has any information to come forward to speak to our charity 100% anonymously, to bring justice to those responsible. We know it can be difficult for some people to speak directly to the police which is why Crimestoppers is here for you.
“Our charity is completely independent of the police, and we’ve been passing on information about crime whilst guaranteeing anonymity since we were established decades ago. It’s a promise we have always kept.”
