CCTV footage at Essex railway stations will be checked by police in a bid to piece together the last movements of murdered prostitute Anneli Alderton.

The 24-year-old, who lived in Harwich and Colchester, was discovered in woodland at Nacton, near Ipswich, on Sunday, days after she was last seen boarding the 17.53 train from Harwich to Colchester on December 3.

She was the third prostitute to be found dead in Suffolk this month.

Investigators hope images at stations both ends of the route - Colchester North and Harwich - will uncover vital clues in the hunt for her killer.
