Aged just 10, Ruth was just yards away when her aunty was brutally murdered. For the first time, Ruth tells publicly the story of how Lily Volpert was killed in the shop she owned, and they lived in as a family. The police in Cardiff were struggling to make any progress as they hunted for "the silent killer". Then a reward brought forward key witnesses. Despite inconsistencies in testimony, the police made their move and arrested a Somali seaman, Mahmood Mattan.
