Julie Ward was murdered in September 1988
British police say a team of detectives has traveled to Kenya to further investigate the murder of a British woman more than 20 years ago.
Julie Ward, 28, was murdered in September 1988 while visiting the Masai Mara game reserve to photograph animals. Two game rangers were charged and acquitted in 1992 in relation to the murder.
Britain's Metropolitan Police said Friday that six detectives and a crime scene manager will work alongside Kenyan police for 11 days, interviewing witnesses in connection with the case.
The team also will pursue DNA and fingerprint evidence.
The force has made at least three previous trips to Kenya in relation to the case.
