    A BODY found in Kings Park around 9.30pm on Monday night is believed to be missing man Dino Hadzic (right).

  • LETTERS 29.4.17

    Detention for Mr Hughes JOHN HUGHES’ letter (“Modern life is rubbish,” Voice, April 8, 2017) berates Perth Modern School students in terms I find quite shocking.

    THE Mount Hawthorn Streets and Lanes Festival is back on for Sunday May 7, and it’s reviving the ridiculously popular dog show.
