The family of a student whose body was found in the boot of a burning car have described her as a "much-loved daughter and twin sister".

Janet Muller, 21, was found in Ifield, near Crawley, West Sussex, on 13 March, a day after she was reported missing from Mill View Hospital, in Hove.

Her family said she was "very inspirational, passionate and caring".

Ms Muller, from Eastbourne, died from smoke inhalation, police have said.

"This tragic event has left a deep hole in the hearts of all that knew her.

"She will be deeply missed and always remembered for her energetic, fun, bubbly and vibrant personality," they said.
