Slain Briton caught on camera

A 22-year-old British woman found dead in a bathtub full of sand near Tokyo last week was caught on a cafe security camera minutes before police believe she was killed, Japanese media said yesterday.

Video pictures broadcast by Japanese television showed English teacher Lindsay Hawker dressed in white and talking to a man media identified as 28-year-old Tatsuya Ichihashi, whom police are seeking in connection with her death.
