An Australian man who murdered a British backpacker in 2001 refused to watch a video from his victim's parents appealing for his help to find their son's body in the weeks before his death, an inquest has heard.
As Bradley Murdoch, 66, was dying from throat cancer, detectives made two attempts to get him to reveal the location of Peter Falconio's body, which has never been found.
The inquest, in Alice Springs, in Australia's Northern Territory, was told that during one attempt, police visited Murdoch in jail hoping to play the video from Joan and Luciano Falconio, but he refused to watch.
Murdoch died in July while serving a life sentence for the murder of the 28-year-old from West Yorkshire.
Huddersfield-born Falconio was shot dead on a remote stretch of highway near the Northern Territory town of Barrow Creek, about 186 miles (300km) north of Alice Springs in July 2001.
