AN EGYPTIAN MAN IN HIS EARLY 30s  was found dead in the railyard behind King's Cross Station  this past Thursday, the 13th victim in a series of bizarre slayings.

Though Inspector James Barrington of the Yard had no immediate comment, sources exclusive to The Scoop agreed that the victim had last been seen at a Soho nightspot, the Blue Pyramid.  The victim reportedly had been drinking heavily before leaving sometime after midnight.  Sources also stated that the victim had been employed as a dockworker.

The Metropolitan police are reported to be pursuing several promising leads in the Egyptian community in our great city.

Readers of The Scoop are reminded that this esteemed journal has a standing reward for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of the perpetrators, in an amount now risen to £22 with the latest death.  Be on guard!
