Police investigating the disappearance of 14-year-old Alice Gross have made Arnis Zalkalns their prime suspect.
The 41-year-old Latvian builder went missing a week after the last sighting of Alice Gross.

A £20,000 reward is being offered for anyone who has information that leads detectives to find Alice.
