A car owned by the man wanted after the murder of a Colchester nurse has been found at a London Airport.

Daniel Tambenwenga's Ford Mondeo was found at Heathrow, it was revealed yesterday. **19** Detectives want to speak to him over the death of Zimbabwe-born Ella Chimweta, 32, whose body was found in the flat she shared with Tambenwenga and a 12-year-old girl, in Weetmans Drive, High Woods.

Murder investigators are yet to formally identify the body but police believe it is Ms Chimweta - formerly from Zimbabwe.

Tambenwenga has not been seen since July 9 - the day Ms Chimweta disappeared after finishing a shift at 2.30pm.

Detectives are following fresh leads in the hope of tracking him down.

It is thought he could have skipped the country in the week before the body - thought to have been hidden under a bed - was found by the 12-year-old on Monday. **16** The traumatised youngster has been interviewed by detectives in the hope she can give them clues as to Tambenwenga's whereabouts.

He is said to be stocky, black, about 30 with affro hair and possibly facial hair and could be using a false name.

It Is not yet known if the 12-year-old was alone in the flat with the body for a week before she made the discovery.

Tests showed Ms Chimweta, who was described as a private person who was well liked by her nursing colleagues, was suffocated.

Police are still keen to hear from anyone who saw Ms Chimweta in the days leading up to her death.
