And we got to talking one day, and he felt convinced that the MLJ Trust needed to grow beyond what he was doing there out of Ashford, Kent, south of London.

Unfortunately, our venue moved and we were unable to continue where we were.

So we were in a place in Parkmount, which has been pulled down by the council.

So it took a long while to find another venue that would work for us in the centre of Ashford because we want to be in the centre of Ashford because it makes us accessible to everyone from across the area.

So that's why there was the pause.

Today, we travel to Ashford, Kent, where on October 5th, 2000, 40-year-old Alan de Cabral was gunned down in broad daylight in a busy Sainsbury's car park.

Surrounded by shoppers, witnesses reportedly heard Alan begging for his life from the back seat of his son's car moments before a gunshot rang out.

Yet, the killer managed to escape on foot, leaving behind little more than a vague description of a young man wearing a woolly hat.

Who wanted Alan de Cabral dead? And how did his killer disappear after committing murder in front of so many witnesses? Alan de Cabral, 40, in October 2000, was a man of significant stature.

He weighed in at twenty-seven stone at the time of his death, and with a mane of long grey hair, he was certainly not a character you would forget, nor one you would want to meet.

On Thursday, 5th October 2000, scores of shoppers witnessed the slaying of Dequebro in Sainsbury's car park in Ashford, Kent.
