Six people have been arrested after a man's body was found in a burnt-out car nine months ago.
Bedfordshire Police was called to a field near the B659 Langford Road, near Langford, at 07:30 GMT on 6 February.
A body in the driver's seat of a destroyed Skoda Octavia was later identified as Jesbir Singh Khela, 47, from Letchworth, Hertfordshire.
Two men have been arrested on suspicion of murder, and four men on suspicion of conspiracy to murder. Police said all six, aged in their 30s, remained in custody.
