First tonight, a week after a woman was raped in a car park in Ipswich,

:00:15.:00:19.

detectives release new CCTV, in a bid to make a breakthrough.

:00:20.:00:22.

The woman was attacked in the early hours of Saturday

:00:23.:00:24.

Police say she had been followed by two men for some time.

:00:25.:00:28.

She was left unconscious by the severity of the attack.

:00:29.:00:31.

Tonight, there are extra officers on the streets of Ipswich.

:00:32.:00:33.

The latest CCTV footage of the two unknown young men is very clear.

:00:34.:00:44.

There is a hope that someone knows the pair or will

:00:45.:00:47.

recognise them from last Friday night into the early hours

:00:48.:00:49.

It is thought the two men had an altercation with two women in

:00:50.:00:54.

Bowman's Bar at around 1.40 on Saturday morning,

:00:55.:00:56.

before heading into the club next door.

:00:57.:00:58.

The men left the club on foot about 2:20am.

:00:59.:01:01.

They are then picked up on CCTV again at about 3.05,

:01:02.:01:04.

in Dogs Head Street, where it is thought they saw the woman.

:01:05.:01:08.

Moments later, between 3.10-3.20am, she was

:01:09.:01:10.

attacked in Rope Walk and dragged into a nearby car park.

:01:11.:01:16.

Here, the victim, who is in her late 20s, was

:01:17.:01:18.

beaten, brutally raped and knocked unconscious.

:01:19.:01:20.

The woman has been released from hospital, but has been

:01:21.:01:24.

We are targeting our enquiries in accordance

:01:25.:01:30.

with the intelligence we are receiving.

:01:31.:01:31.

As you can see, we have produced good images.

:01:32.:01:33.

We just need the golden piece of information

:01:34.:01:35.

You are treating these two men as potential suspects,

:01:36.:01:41.

I am satisfied that the two men whose images we have

:01:42.:01:46.

released are the two men need to speak to

:01:47.:01:48.

It is very likely, if people see these

:01:49.:01:56.

images and know these men, it would be able to give us their names.

:01:57.:02:00.

I would implore people who recognise them from these

:02:01.:02:02.

images to please do that. Get in touch with us,

:02:03.:02:04.

The two men were picked up once again on

:02:05.:02:08.

CCTV near the town's Cattle Market area,

:02:09.:02:09.

Tonight, police have stepped up patrols in the centre of Ipswich,

:02:10.:02:13.

partly to give reassurance, but also in the hope that these

:02:14.:02:15.

new images they have released will jog someone's memory.

:02:16.:02:18.

They say it is crucial that any witnesses come forward

:02:19.:02:20.

It is thanks to the cameras installed by the owners of the

:02:21.:02:24.

bar that the police were able to get such good images of the two men.

:02:25.:02:28.

They want to talk to anyone who may have spoken to

:02:29.:02:30.

them a week ago today, but especially the two women with whom

:02:31.:02:34.

it is believed they had an altercation with in the bar

:02:35.:02:36.

in the early hours of Saturday morning.

:02:37.:02:38.

Their recollections could prove crucial.

:02:39.:02:39.

Suffolk Police say anyone with information should contact them

:02:40.:02:41.

on 101 or call Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.

:02:42.:02:55.

Justice Secretary Elizabeth Truss has spoken publicly

:02:56.:02:56.

for the first time about the catalogue of errors

:02:57.:02:59.

which led to a mentally-ill man electrocuting himself

:03:00.:03:00.

Mrs Truss is now offering Dean Saunders' parents the chance

:03:01.:03:06.

to help the government prevent further suicides in jail.

:03:07.:03:16.

Elizabeth Truss, leaving Whitemore high security prison.

:03:17.:03:18.

She is promising more prison staff and more money for those

:03:19.:03:20.

The tour of the prison came just days after talks

:03:21.:03:24.

I met the family of Dean Saunders and,

:03:25.:03:29.

clearly, it was a very tragic event which took place at HMP Chelmsford.

:03:30.:03:37.

I have offered them to become involved in our policy-making,

:03:38.:03:40.

to make sure we're doing what we can to prevent those

:03:41.:03:42.

Are you sorry with regard to the Dean Saunders case that

:03:43.:03:49.

things were not in place at that time?

:03:50.:03:50.

Certainly, it was not good enough what happened in

:03:51.:03:53.

We have looked at the case and learnt lessons from it,

:03:54.:03:59.

both in the prison service and the NHS.

:04:00.:04:01.

But there is more that we need to do.

:04:02.:04:04.

Dean Saunders was mentally ill when he electrocuted himself

:04:05.:04:07.

in his Chelmsford prison cell last year.

:04:08.:04:08.

The prison ombudsman reported that he should have been

:04:09.:04:10.

An inquest stated that he had been failed by

:04:11.:04:14.

both the prison service and the mental health systems.

:04:15.:04:16.

At the meeting with the Justice Secretary,

:04:17.:04:19.

the parents of Dean Saunders Saunders

:04:20.:04:21.

came out with assurances that mistakes made in their son's death

:04:22.:04:23.

When we went through Dean's case in the first place and pointed out

:04:24.:04:35.

all the failings the Justice Secretary said, "Yes, we agree."

:04:36.:04:37.

Now, we just need to see the actions.

:04:38.:04:40.

With levels of violence in prisons up and staffing levels down,

:04:41.:04:43.

the Prison Officers Association has welcomed the idea

:04:44.:04:44.

from the Justice Secretary of the Saunders family

:04:45.:04:46.

helping to prevent further suicides behind bars.

:04:47.:04:53.

Tonight, the parents of Dean Saunders said it was too late to

:04:54.:04:56.

save their son, but they welcomed the offer to try and save others.

:04:57.:05:05.

There has been a second bird flu outbreak in Suffolk,

:05:06.:05:08.

this time at a farm run by Gressingham Foods,

:05:09.:05:10.

This afternoon, Defra confirmed that the virus has been discovered

:05:11.:05:14.

at the farm in Redgrave, close to where the first outbreak

:05:15.:05:16.

No birds have been found to have the virus, but thousands

:05:17.:05:21.

of ducks will have to be culled. Mike Liggins reports.

:05:22.:05:30.

This is the factory. This afternoon, Defra announced the bird flu had

:05:31.:05:51.

been phoned on the farm. To contain the portable spread of the virus, a
