The wife of Lord Lucan has dismissed a
claim in a new book her husband fled to India in 1974 and lived out the
rest of his life posing as a
hippy known as "Jungly Barry"
In the book, Dead Lucky, former senior Scotland Yard detective Duncan
MacLaughlin said he had unearthed evidence solving where the aristocrat
went after his family’s nanny Sandra Rivett was found battered to death
at his London home in 1974.
The Earl’s car was found abandoned in the East Sussex port
town of Newhaven giving rise to the belief, shared by his wife Lady Veronica
Lucan, he drowned himself in the Channel.
But MacLaughlin says in the book, extracts of which have appeared in
the Sunday Telegraph, that Lord Lucan fled to Goa in India, where he
lived a hippy lifestyle as Barry Halpin until his death in 1996.
