Police are reiterating appeals for information about the murder of Zoe Louise Parker, a year after her severed torso was recovered from the Thames in Battersea.

The upper torso of Miss Parker, also known as Cathy Dennis, was dragged from the river near St Mary's Church on December 17 last year.

She was last seen with two men in the Treaty Centre in Hounslow on December 6.

Officers have been talking to people in Hounslow and Charing Cross in order to trace the events that led to her murder.

They are particularly looking for information about where the T-shirt she was found in came from.

It is yellowish, made by Catch One and known to have been sold in only a few markets across the country.

They are also trying to trace a woman called Carmen or Carmel who is believed to have been a friend of Zoe.

Call 020 82477911 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
