Police have clarified the reasons behind the fresh search of the River Wyre where Nicola Bulley disappeared.
Divers returned to the area where the mum-of-two went missing earlier this week as part of the coroner's investigation. Nicola disappeared on January 27, sparking a massive search operation which ended when her body was tragically found on February 19.
Police and expert partners had extensively searched the stretch of the river near to where she had last been seen but had struggled to find clues before her body was found. Lancashire Constabulary concluded its investigation into her disappearance on the basis that it had found no suspicious circumstances and there was not believed to be anybody else involved.
