Who Killed Canberra Grandmother Irma Palasics?

Episode 236:

On November 6, 1999, Canberra grandmother Irma Palasics was on the floor of her home.

Irma’s grandson John Mikita feels that the case is tantalisingly close to being solved but frustratingly, despite a few breakthroughs on the case and a $500,000 reward, no one has been arrested. Police believe that members of the Hungarian community in Melbourne can provide the vital clue to the identity of the people who killed Irma.

John Mikita runs and maintains a website https://www.whokilledirma.com.au/ that has lots of information and videos.
