A possible witness to the desecration of dozens of children's graves at a South Auckland cemetery has failed to come forward, despite footage of the person walking near the crime scene being released by police yesterday.
Police yesterday released CCTV footage of the destruction of dozens of graves at Papakura Cemetery on Saturday night. The grainy footage showed the alleged offender and a possible witness.
A police spokeswoman today said police had spoken with a couple of other potential witnesses, but not the person in the video footage.
The offender still had not been identified, she said.
The motivation of the offender remained a mystery.
