DETECTIVES hunting missing Gosport woman Alison Counsell have revealed her car registration in a bid to track her down.

They want anyone who spots the red Peugeot 106, number plate Y127 UBP, to contact them.

Miss Counsell, 49, was last seen leaving her home in Bury Road in the car at around 8.30am last Friday - but she never arrived at her workplace in Portsmouth.

She is described as 5ft 5in, of medium build with dark brown curly hair above her collar.

It was not known what she was wearing at the time of her disappearance but she normally wore smart casual clothes for work.

Det Con Adrian Fretter, leading the investigation, said: "The family are growing increasingly concerned. It's totally out of character."
