Nikki Allan from Sunderland: Episode 129

Nikki Allan was born in Sunderland on 30 August 1985 and she lived in the City with her mum, Sharon and 3 sisters. There was nothing unusual about the night of 7 October 1992, but this was the night that Nikki went missing and her body was found the next day. Nobody has been convicted of her murder.

If you have any information about Nikki’s death - however small or insignificant it might seem - please speak to Northumbria Police’s major crime team on 101 ext 69191 or the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
