The parents of Nora Quoirin have identified a body found in Malaysia as that of the missing teenager.
Nora, who had special needs, was on holiday with her family when she disappeared from her room at the Dusun resort on 4 August.
Police said the 15-year-old Londoner’s parents have confirmed the body found by a search team on Tuesday was their daughter.
A post-mortem examination will be carried out on Wednesday.
Malaysia’s deputy police chief Mazlan Mansor said Nora was found beside a stream in a “quite hilly” area of plantation 2km away from Dunsun, and was “not in any clothing”.
Authorities have been treating Nora’s disappearance as a missing persons case, but her family have said they believe she may have been abducted.
Her cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
