Rania Alayed , 25, was lured to her death by her husband, who buried her body in North Yorkshire before wearing her clothing to convince her family and friends she was alive.

Ahmed Al-Khatib put on Ms Alayed's jeans and headscarf and then carried her corpse in a suitcase, less than a hour after she dropped their children off at his brother's flat in Salford , Greater Manchester , on June 7 2013.

Despite numerous searches over the years, the body of the Syrian-born mother-of-three had not been found.

On Tuesday, officers located buried human remains by the A19 in Thirsk, North Yorkshire , after receiving new information, Greater Manchester Police said.
