POLICE investigating the disappearance of Claudia Lawrence are to liaise with colleagues in Manchester after a woman’s body was found.

The skeleton was found wrapped in carpet on a building site in Manchester city centre on January 25.

North Yorkshire Police said there was no obvious link with the Claudia Lawrence investigation but they said they would be liaising with Greater Manchester Police as part of their inquiry.

A blue jumper and blue/green bra were recovered among the woman’s remains, while a green pinafore with large buttons was found nearby.

Claudia was last seen on March 18 of last year in Melrosegate, York, as she walked home from working as a chef at the University of York. She was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, blue jeans and trainers.
