The remains of Zoe Nelson, 17, were discovered near Branchalfield Drive in Wishaw on Sunday afternoon. She was last seen by her mother leaving her home in nearby Newmains on Saturday evening. Detectives have launched a murder inquiry and are trying to piece together her last movements. In a statement issued through the police, the teenager's mother Mariann said: "Zoe was a popular girl and a typical 17-year-old who had plenty of friends and was well known in the area.
Zoe, a former Motherwell College student, left home at about 1700 BST on Saturday heading to meet friends. Her body was found in a spot known as "Monkey Hill", which links the areas of Cambusnethan, Newmains and Coltness and is used as a short cut, a cycle track and for walking dogs. Police said local people had reported seeing a fire in that area at about 2320 BST on Saturday.
