A witness who reported seeing a man "running for his life" from the Jill Dando murder scene has identified him as a Serbian assassin.Soon after the Crimewatch presenter was shot dead outside her home on Monday, April 26, 1999, the woman was driving along Jill's killer's suspected escape route.This Friday is the 25th anniversary of her killing.

I'm a bit rattled, holy s***. It was a long time ago but I can remember faces from years and years back. I'm bad for remembering names but I'm good with faces."She added: "I think I need to speak to the police." The CCTV was taken from Putney Bridge Tube station in South West London, around a mile from Jill's Fulham home, on April 26, 1999.It is close to Putney Bridge bus stop, where a man who looked like a police e-fit suspect was last seen.
