In December 2018, officers attached to Blacktown Police Area Command established Strike Force Admarality to investigate the disappearance of 71-year-old Nadire Sensoy from her home at Prospect, in western Sydney.
Strike force detectives made a public appeal for information in 2020 and announced a reward for information.
On March 13, a coronial inquest into the woman's death began but was suspended due to new information coming to light.
