Police in Britain have said the body of a female found yesterday is not that of missing teenager Amanda Dowler.

Surrey Police yesterday confirmed that the body of a female had been recovered from the water at Sunbury Lock, just south of Sunbury Court Island, at 8.15 p.m. last night.

The stretch of the Thames is just a short distance from Walton-on-Thames, where 13-year-old Amanda, also known as Milly, went missing a month ago.

A massive police hunt was launched but there has so far been only limited information or clues as to the teenager's whereabouts.
