Martine Magnussen
Message from Prof. Aldwyn Cooper, CEO of Regent's
College
19 March 2008
The police have released the name of an individual that they
wish to interview regarding the tragic death of Martine
Magnussen. It has been stated that the individual
concerned is also a student of Regent's College and has
recently fled the UK. Having received further information we
are able to confirm this.
The police have still not contacted the College at any time
during their investigations. We have been informed that they
are progressing their own enquiries and will contact us if
needed. Clearly the College is ready to help the police in
every way it can.
The College is aware that the police wish to
speak to any Regent's College student who was with Martine on the
night of Thursday 13th March. We appeal to anyone who has any
information to contact the police incident desk: +44 (0) 20 8358
0300
The College is deeply saddened by this tragedy
and our thoughts are with Martine’s family and friends at this
time.
I know how distressing this can be for
everybody, students and staff wishing to make use of the
counselling services available should contact the College’s Therapy
Centre.
Once we have had the opportunity to consult with the family,
arrangements will be made for the College community to
remember Martine.

I regret that I have to write that one of our
students in Regent's Business School London, Ms. Martine Magnussen,
has been found dead at the weekend. She disappeared after
attending a club in Mayfair on Thursday.
On behalf of the College I want to express our
condolences to her family and to everybody who knew
Martine. The College is deeply saddened by this tragedy and
our thoughts are with Martine’s family and friends at this
time.
I know how distressing this can be for
everybody and the College is arranging personal or group
counselling for anybody who feels that it may be helpful for
them.
Once we have had the opportunity to consult with the family,
arrangements will be made for the College community to
remember Martine.
This tragic event is subject to a full police
investigation. They have informed us that they are progressing
their own enquiries and will contact us if needed. Clearly the
College is ready to help the police in every way it can.
The College is aware that the police wish to
