All That Glitters | The Diamond King, Ep 1

In 2010, a fresh-faced newcomer launches himself into the luxury world of high-end jewellery. His name is Nirav Modi, an ambitious diamantaire who dropped out of business school to make jewellery for the world’s elite. His vision is to fuse East with West; to bring something of India’s tradition into western designs.  Within a few years, he’s risen to the top. He opens stores on the most prestigious shopping streets in New York, London, Macau and Hong Kong. But he doesn’t stop there; he wants his name in bright lights around the world. For now, it seems Nirav’s rise is unstoppable. But there’s something about him that leaves those around him feeling unsettled; and then, the questions start – where are the billions coming from?  Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Cover-up | Murder in the Masai Mara, Ep 5

John’s investigation keeps coming up against brick walls - and five decades on, so does Katherine’s. When Kenya admits to a cover-up it begins to make sense. But it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Who exactly were the authorities covering up for, and was the British government involved? As her reporting comes to a close, Katherine celebrates a young woman whose life was cut short; and at the eleventh hour, a chat with a Mi6 agent sheds new light on Julie’s case.

The President's Son | Murder in the Masai Mara, Ep 4

A whistleblower comes forward claiming to have witnessed everything and pointing the finger at someone nobody expected: Jonathan Moi, the president’s son. It's almost too far-fetched to be believed, but his name starts coming up again, and again. An incriminating scrap of paper. A police statement locked up for decades. Rumours of a romance. Katherine investigates the evidence.   Archive in this episode: ITN via Getty, Channels Television, Citizen TV Kenya, NTV Kenya, KTN News Kenya Get in touch: juliewardcase@telegraph.co.uk Watch the accompanying film to this series: https://youtu.be/T8VhCxyx3O0 Sign up to the Telegraph: https://bit.ly/murdermasaimara [https://bit.ly/murdermasaimara] Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.
