Nearly twenty years ago the half-naked body of a Thai woman was found by walkers in a remote part of the Yorkshire Dales in England.

BBC Thai journalist Issariya Praithongyaem asks why no one in the UK reported this mother of three missing? And why hasn't anyone been brought to justice for her death.
