Police investigating the murder of Surrey schoolgirl Milly Dowler released a man without charge today after questioning him in connection with the case, a police spokesman said.

Surrey Police said they arrested the 40-year-old from west London after he voluntarily went to a police station.

He was questioned about "the potential disposal of a red Daewoo Nexia car" that formed part of the investigation into the 13-year-old's murder.

Milly Dowler was abducted in broad daylight in March 2002 as she walked home from the local train station after school.

Her remains were discovered by a couple picking mushrooms in woodland about 25 miles from her home town of Walton-on-Thames in Surrey.

Despite a huge police inquiry that at one stage even involved the US Federal Bureau of Investigation, her killer has never been caught.
