On December 20th, a passerby spotted the woman’s body at the water’s edge in Saltdean and immediately alerted officers. Despite a thorough investigation, her identity remains a mystery.

Tattoo Clues Released to the Public

Police have now released images of several distinctive tattoos on the woman’s arms and legs. They hope someone will recognise these markings and come forward with crucial information.
