Detectives investigating the murder of a young woman found on the Queen's Sandringham Estate have named the victim as 17-year-old Alisa Dmitrijeva.
Her body was found by a dog walker in woodland at Anmer, near Sandringham in West Norfolk, on New Year's Day.
Latvian-born Miss Dmitrijeva was identified by comparing detail from her palm with records held.
Miss Dmitrijeva, from Wisbech in Cambridgeshire, was last seen in Friars Street, King's Lynn, on 31 August.
In a press statement, Miss Dmitrijeva's family said they were "devastated" by news of her death.
Forensics experts had struggled to identify the body.
Attempts to get a useable DNA profile for Miss Dmitrijeva from tooth and muscle samples were inconclusive.
Miss Dmitrijeva was finally identified by comparing details from her palm with records held which were further verified by DNA from her femur.
