AI-based facial recognition claims Brisbane Man is missing Lord Lucan

An AI-based facial recognition system that identified the killers of Jamal Khashoggi had made another interesting revelation. The globally acclaimed AI photo analysis technology devised by Professor Hassan Ugail of the University of Bradford claims to have cracked Britain’s high-profile unsolved murder involving Richard John Bingham, aka Lord Lucan.

According to media reports, the 7th Earl of Lucan was suspected of murdering Sandra Eleanor Rivett. The 29-year-old nanny was found dead in Lord Lucan’s Belgravia home, and he was accused of bludgeoning her to death with a lead pipe. However, Lord Lucan disappeared and was never found, and his last confirmed sighting occurred on November 8, 1974.

Since his disappearance, investigators established that the nanny’s murder might have been pre-planned. Her son, Neil Berriman, has spent all these years to trace Lord Lucan, but the British aristocrat was nowhere to be found. Prof Ugail’s technology, however, claims to have traced Lord Lucan.




Following the trail, Berriman landed in Australia and was convinced that the pensioner was Lord Lucan in disguise. If we were to believe the algorithm’s “science and mathematical fact,” an 87-year-old pensioner in Brisbane, Australia, is Lord Lucan.

Prof Ugail’s facial recognition system helped identify two Russian agents who poisoned Sergei Skripal and his daughter, 33-year-old daughter Yulia, in 2018. In the same year, the renowned facial recognition expert identified three suspects involved in the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
