| FATHER AND SON |
A grieving father is thought to have killed himself after murdering a suspected drug dealer he blamed for the death of his cage-fighter son.
Detectives are investigating claims that Roy Allison, 65, revealed his plan to kill Duncan Bell, 36, and then commit suicide in a chilling letter which he apparently wrote to his local newspaper.
In the letter, sent to the Peterborough Telegraph, he appeared to claim he wanted to get ‘justice’ for his son Roy Allison Jnr, a martial arts instructor who died on March 21 - the day after his 28th birthday.
Heartbroken Mr Allison was found dead at 8.30am on Sunday at Peterborough Crematorium where his son’s funeral was held on April 12.
It is believed that he hanged himself in the grounds.
Mr Allison typed out his nine page letter and sent 14 copies of it to various addresses including the police and the Peterborough Telegraph.
The letters are believed to have been posted late on Saturday or in the early hours of Sunday and arrived on Tuesday.
