Eileen Cook

Eileen Cook was killed in an air-raid shelter at Sclater Street, Bethnal Green on 4 February 1945.

She was found dead with face wounds by a policeman who was making a routine inspection of the shelter. It was thought that a knife, in addition to a steel tube, had been used by her killer and it was thought that he would have had bloodstains on his clothes. It was also reported that she had been battered about the head with a heavy weapon.
