A £20,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of the killer or killers of a Blackheath loner who suffered a violent attack at his home four months ago.
Philip Silvester, 62, of Kellaway Road, was discovered on December 13, last year by police who forced their way in eleven days after he was last seen.
Mr. Silvester (pictured) died as a result of injuries to his head and chest.
He was last seen on December 2 at about midday after driving to his local convenience store in nearby Whetstone Road in his H-reg silver/blue Ford Escort.
Detectives believe that images of Mr. Silvester captured on CCTV at the store are the last time he was seen alive.
They believe he was killed a short time later.
Investigating officer Detective Inspector Nigel Foster from the Homicide and Serious Crime Command, said: "Mr Silvester was a very quiet man who lead a private life and generally kept himself to himself.
"He rarely socialised and was careful about opening his front door to strangers.
"I would particularly like to appeal to anyone who was in Kellaway Road between Tuesday 1 December and Sunday 13 December 2009 and heard a disturbance in the area to contact the police.”
