Malcolm Naden search winds down



Owner surveys the kitchen of the holiday cabin after the break-in in which food, including dry stores in jars were stolen




Malcolm Naden has broken into over a dozen holiday homes and private residences in the remote, rugged bushland of Barrington Tops over the past 7 years and the owners all say the same thing - there was no mess and everything was put back neatly in its place. In his latest break-in, Naden stocked up on rice, sugar and Jatz biscuits before neatly stacking the empty jars. He also took blue flanelette pyjamas, a hammock, two cans of fly spray, fire lighters, Driazabone jackets and pocket knives.


As yet, he hasn’t harmed anyone but women in the area have good reason to be nervous, they believe he watches their movements from a distance and knows when the house is empty.


Last week the search team involved 75 tactical ground and support crew but this could be reduced if they don’t find him soon. As the Christmas break looms, police officers are urgently needed elsewhere and the search will wind down over the holiday break unless new information is found.
