Terry Clark (Mr Asia)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Terry Clark (1944-1983), known as "Mr Asia", was the ruthless head of a New Zealand drug syndicate which imported heroin into New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom in the 1970s, and was responsible for a string of deaths.

He was imprisoned for the murder of his associate Marty Johnstone, whose battered and handless body was found in "Eccleston Delph", a flooded quarry in the north of England. He died in prison in 1983, officially of natural causes, but speculation arose that he was secretly murdered.
