Self-made millionaire Reg Bond turned £350 into a fortune based on a rubber tyre empire before turning his hand to racehorse training and breeding, producing a string of winners, many of which bore his family name. He died in March 2021, aged 77, and his four children - sons Graham, Charlie and Mike, and only daughter Lindsay - are now fighting in court over the validity of his last will. Mr Bond had given much of his fortune away before he died, but his final will, made in November 2019, handed nearly all of his remaining £12.3million to Charlie, 43, and Graham, 52.

A group action claim has been filed in the High Court over Uber's operations in the capital between May 2012 and March 2018.

The legal claim says that this booking system was 'unlawful' and that Uber deliberately misled TfL about how the system worked in order to get its licence in London. The cab drivers say that during this time they suffered losses of more than £250 million as a result of having fewer customers or having to work longer hours to compete with the popular app.

However, Wojtek Zalinska (top inset) denied those allegations, telling MailOnline: 'That was complete rubbish, she was never a call girl.' Never.

I will do it because she isn't here to defend herself anymore, so I won't be here to protect myself.'

Ms Zalinska's sudden death is not being treated as suspicious, but as unexpected, according to Police. The single mother-of-two, who had been divorced, was embroiled in a tense dispute with the Golman Sachs banker, who was reportedly defending the multi-millionaire's family.

EXCLUSIVE: Louise Reeves was accused of manipulating her land tycoon father Kevin Reeves into leaving her most of fortune while her brother received almost nothing in a bitter court contest. When losing the High Court battle last year, she did not have a commercial relationship with the solicitor who wrote up their father's will, causing her £2 million in legal fees. But a new judge dismissed Louise's appeal because he was jailed for contempt of court for concealing the affair.

MailOnline examines several other murder cases in which a body was never found as killer uncle Stuart Campbell refuses to reveal the whereabouts of his niece and is refused parole. If no body has been found, it has been extremely difficult to convict murderers. However, there have been instances where confessions and witnesses have implicated the murderer, and advancements inforensic science and technology have made it possible.

Louise Reeves (left), a Toni and Guy stylist turned billionaire businesswoman, battled her brother Bill Reeves (inset), 48, last year, when her rags-to-riches tycoon father Kevin (right) died, leaving her with the majority of her money and property empire. Kevin changed his will in 2014, excluding Bill from a cut of his fortune worth about £27 million. Following a Supreme Court hearing last year, his will was reversed, with a judge finding that his 'ruthless' sister Louise had 'engineered' the creation of the document, 'pulling the wool over (her father's) eyes,' so he signed a will he didn't understand. Now Louise may face prison time after her brother and his son Ryan McKinnon launched a bid to have her jailed for reportedly lying in court records. Louise and her father's solicitor, Daniel Curnock,'deliberately concealed' how well they knew each other before Kevin's final will was made, according to their lawyers.
