POLICE investigating the murder of a woman whose burnt out remains were found in a Hampshire village have released a vital clue in the hunt for her killer.

Last night police released details of her clothing.

The jacket was sold nationwide in 601 New Look stores from October 2007.
Detective Chief Inspector Gary O'Flaherty, said: "This is a very distinctive jacket and we hope that by releasing this photograph it will jog someone's memory.
