Tia’s body was found in the attic of her grandmother’s house after a five day search. She had gone missing five days earlier.

Detective Sergeant Eric Sword, of the Metropolitan police's specialist crime operations unit based at Sutton, told the inquest that a postmortem examination was still being carried out by a pathologist and was due to resume later on Thursday.

The inquest, at South London coroner's court in Croydon, was adjourned until a later date.
