$500,000 reward offered in Crows Nest murder case

The Queensland Government has announced a $500,000 reward for information that leads to the conviction of the person, or persons, responsible for the murder of 61-year-old Crows Nest woman, Krishna Chopra.

On January 31, Ms Chopra (pictured) was located deceased in her home on Park Road.

Detective Senior Sergeant Paul McCusker from the Toowoomba Criminal Investigation Branch said it was hoped the reward would lead to further arrests.

“We believe there are people out in the community who could have information about Krishna’s murder and that another person or persons were involved in the planning of this offence,” he said.

“I urge anyone who has not already come forward, who may have had an association with Ms Chopra or visited her house at 5 Park Road, Crows Nest to come forward.”

Additionally, anyone who was in the Park Road area of Crows Nest on January 20, 21 and 22 to contact police to discuss their observations and movements.

In addition to the reward, an appropriate indemnity from prosecution will be recommended for any accomplice, not being the person who actually committed the crime, who first gives such information, Queensland Police said in a statement.

In March, a 33-year-old man was charged in connection with the alleged murder following a number of public appeals for information.
