Britain’s most feared crime godfather is to be questioned about the *unsolved murders of two of his closest associates.
Notorious gangster Terry *Adams, 56, will be quizzed by Scotland Yard detectives following *advances in DNA science.
They have reopened an *investigation into gangland “hits” on Adams family enforcer Gilbert Wynter, 37, and financial adviser Solly Nahome, 48.
Detectives hope improvements in forensic science will provide the vital breakthrough in the cases that have remained unsolved for 13 years.
Items of clothing and the last car Wynter used have been *recovered and will be retested for potential DNA clues.
Detectives also plan to speak to two other men who were also part of the notorious crime syndicate from London’s Clerkenwell. In all, more than 20 associates of the family will be questioned again.
Detective Chief Inspector *David Manning from Scotland Yard’s Homicide and Serious Crime *Command, is leading the new probe. He said: “Having reviewed both investigations and with *advances in DNA techniques, we decided to launch a last-ditch effort to bring them to a *successful conclusion.”
The Adams Family gang – known as the A Team – is believed to have been behind 25 gangland murders. Detectives said they were so *violent they made the Krays look like “lovable rogues”.
The murders include the *mysterious disappearance of Wynter and the death of Nahome by a motorbike gunman.
Both are said to have double-crossed the family. DCI Manning added: “We are now convinced that the two cases are linked.”
Adams, from North London, was jailed for money- laundering in 2007 but detectives have so far been unable to pin anything else on him.
