Update 6: Suspicious death at Crows Nest

Detectives are continuing to investigate the murder of 61-year-old Krishna Chopra at Crows Nest in January this year.

Late last month, police appealed for public assistance to identify a metal bar which was located during a ground search near her home on Park Road.

Police have since determined it to be a Torsion bar from a particular vehicle which has been shortened to 47cm in length.

This may suggest it was modified for a particular purpose, but the purpose of the modification remains unknown.

The connection of the bar to Krishna also remains unknown and police are looking to establish its origins to assist with ongoing investigations.

Detectives continue to appeal to 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.

The last confirmed sighting of 61-year-old Krishna was on January 20 in Toowoomba but police believe she was alive on January 21.

Krishna was a volunteer who worked with Meals on Wheels, delivering meals and packing food containers to the community where she had lived since 2021 having moved from the Allora/Warwick area.

The joint investigation is continuing to be conducted by detectives from the Toowoomba Criminal Investigation Branch and the Homicide Investigation Unit.
