Police investigating the murder of Emma Caldwell have released CCTV footage of her wearing the jacket she had on when she was last seen in Glasgow.

The dark brown suede jacket with an imitation fur collar and cuffs is still missing as is the dark coloured handbag she was carrying at the time.

Police said these two items would be a "significant part" of their inquiry.

The 27-year-old had not been seen since 4 April. Her body was found in woods in South Lanarkshire on Sunday.

Strathclyde Police said the search of the site near Roberton had not been completed.

I know that there must be people out there who know something and have not yet come forward
Det Supt Willie Johnston

However, neither the bag nor the jacket, which was bought at Primark, had been found.

Det Supt Willie Johnston, the officer leading the inquiry, said: "We are obviously anxious to trace these items.

"Overnight, a further 20 calls have been made to the incident room. I am pleased that the public are responding to our appeals for information, but I know that there must be people out there who know something and have not yet come forward.

"I would urge those to do the right thing and contact the incident room at Cathcart Police Office on 0141 532 4943 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."

Emma, who was working as a prostitute, had been staying in a women's hostel in the Govanhill area of Glasgow before she disappeared.

She was last seen walking alone in Butterbiggins Road, towards Victoria Road, on 4 April. She was reported missing a week later.
