'Always in our hearts': tributes to woman found dead in boot of car

"Harshita, you left this world but you are still with us in our hearts and will always be there," they said in a tribute issued yesterday through Northamptonshire police.

"We will never forget you till our last breath. Always stay with us. We miss you in every moment of our life." Brella's body was found inside the boot of a vehicle in Ilford, east London, in the early hours of 14 November, and detectives believe she was murdered in Corby on the evening of 10 November.
