Police investigating the disappearance of a teenage girl 16 years ago have been unable to identify human remains found at a house in Kent.
Essex Police, leading the inquiry, say they have found personal effects which do not tally with information about the missing girl, Dinah McNicol.

Three arrested in M40 murder hunt ... information about Peter Tobin, a former owner of the Margate house.
Dinah McNicol, 18, from Tillingham, Essex, vanished in August 1991.
She was last seen alone in a car with an unknown man on the M25 in Surrey, after leaving a music festival at Liphook, Hants.
The team investigating her disappearance have been concentrating on the back garden of the Margate house where they have found human remains.
A post-mortem examination has confirmed that the remains are those of a female but it does not reveal who she was or how she died.
It is understood that the house in Margate was once owned by a Scot, now in his 60s, called Peter Tobin.
A police Homicide Working Group has asked forces across the UK to investigate his movements over the past two decades.
