A photograph of the blackened remains of the Manchester United shirts worn by murdered schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman was shown today to the jury trying their alleged killer.

All the girls’ clothing was cut from their bodies and burned in a bin at Soham Village College, prosecutor Richard Latham QC said.

He said police made the grim discovery on Friday August 16 last year in a bin in a hangar at the college after finding the keys in the house of Ian Huntley, the college caretaker.

Huntley, 29, denies murdering the two girls but admits conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
