Nida Naseer Search: Body Found On Wetlands Nature Reserve
Gwent Police investigating the disappearance of teenager Nida Nasser have found a body they believe could be the teen, three months after she went missing.
The body was discovered in Newport Wetlands Nature Reserve on Thursday.
The 19-year-old disappeared after leaving her home in Linton Street in the Pill area of Newport, to put the bins out at 8pm on December 28.
Her old sister Shamyla, said she believed Nida's disappearance was connected to her studies.
The student was apparently "shouting and crying" because she could not get funding to go to university as her family are asylum seekers.
Nida's family, who are originally from Pakistan repeated pleas for her to come home.
A post-mortem examination is due to take place later today.
