Culprit? Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline has been named as Jack the Ripper by a Spanish investigator
A new book sensationally claims to unmask Jack the Ripper - as the Scotland Yard detective who led the hunt for the serial killer.
A Spanish investigator names Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline as the man who brutally murdered at least five women in Victorian London.
Jose Luis Abad, 84, makes the claim in his book 'Jack the Ripper: The most intelligent murderer in history', published in Spain this week.
Mr Abad is a handwriting expert and bases his claims on a comparison of Chief Inspector Abberline's writing with that of Jack the Ripper's diary - a 63 page document that surfaced in Liverpool in 1992.
He compared the writing in the diary, which mentions Chief Inspector Abberline 24 times, with a police report written by the detective and his signature at the end of his memoirs.
Mr Abad, a member of the Spanish Graphology Society, said: 'Having compared the handwriting I have no doubt Inspector Abberline was in fact Jack the Ripper. It sounds unbelievable, but the fact is handwriting does not lie.
'Their scripts are identical.'
Mr Abad, who has studied handwriting since 1975, started his investigation into the Ripper murders seven years ago.
