She and Michael, 39, spoke most days on the phone and so when he didn't hear from her for a few days at the beginning of http://www.domulberryuk.co.uk last September he grew increasingly concerned. "I called friends of hers in Spain who went to the flat she was staying at and saw her car outside but didn't get an answer when they knocked on the door," he recalls. "I called the police to try to file a missing persons' report but they said I had to come to Spain." Michael duly flew out on September 11 and, together with Agnese's mother, sister and friends, began what has turned out to be a long and drawn-out campaign to highlight her disappearance and appeal for help. "We went to the police station to report her missing, put up posters that I'd organised in London and had friends of hers in Marbella print off, and retraced her lastknown steps so we could talk to people who might have seen her that night. "Her mum and sister were obviously very worried then and they're totally distraught and heartbroken now knowing as they do that something terrible may have happened to Agnese. It's a very difficult time for them. They're a very close-knit family." Their efforts have so far come to nothing but a police investigation resulted in two British expats appearing in court last Monday. Both refused to answer any of fendi outlet the judge's questions, however, pleading their legal right to remain silent. So what do we know of the details of a case that has gripped the coast dubbed the Costa del Crime? On the evening of Friday September 6 last year Agnese donned a multicoloured halter-neck dress, picked up her favourite large white Louis Vuitton handbags and headed out for a night on the town. SHE and her friends ended up at a nightclub called Aqwa Mist, one of four Marbella venues owned by the restaurant group La Sala, whose shareholders include ex-footballers David Bentley and Dean Austin. A well-known haunt of burberry replica outlet Marbella's demi-monde, it would have been packed with locals and minor celebrities. Agnese got talking to a woman she met there and so stayed on when her friends left – a decision that was to prove her downfall. For reasons that remain obscure she finally left with two British men subsequently identified as Westley Capper, 37, and Craig Porter, 33. While Capper admits to driving her away in his Mercedes, he claims that he and Porter dropped her off at an apartment where she was staying. From that day to this there has been no sign of her.
