The police in Melbourne, Australia are offering a $1 million reward for any information which will lead to the arrest of Mark Adrian Perry. Mr. Perry is wanted for the murder of Shane Chartres Abbott. Abbott, a male prostitute who twilighted as a vampire, raped Mr. Perry's girlfriend, bit off part of her tongue, and then left her unconscious on the floor of a South Yarra hotel room.
Abbott was shot dead the day he was set to appear at trial for the rape. The shooter is now serving a life sentence in jail. Mr. Perry is now wanted for allegedly ordering Abbott's execution.
Deputy Commissioner Ken Jones says a number of people know Perry's whereabouts and police are keen to close the case on the killing.
"[Mr Abbott] was murderered in broad daylight on a street and you imagine the collateral damage that could have been inflicted on families around that area at the time," he said.
It is believed Perry is living interstate and he has been seen in Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia since he left Victoria in 2007.
Deputy Commissioner Jones says a number of people know where Perry is.
"They know his movements and his whereabouts and I would urge them to come forward," he said.
Mr Abbott's murder was at the centre of a 2007 police integrity inquiry into allegations high-ranking police officers leaked details about the investigation.
There was also an allegation that a police officer gave his address to a hitman.
He looks like Johnny Lee Miller from Dracula 2000...coincidence?
