The baby that was found near where Constance Marten and Mark Gordon were arrested 'may have been dead for some time', police have said.
"While there are still many unanswered questions it is important that we give the investigation team the time and space they need to establish more details about the circumstances of this tragic death.
"Despite this, based on the enquiries we've carried out so far, we believe, sadly, the baby had been dead for several weeks before they were found. It's too early for us to provide a more specific date.A police search team works through an area near a golf course as they continue to search for a missing baby.He added that the force has referred itself to the Independent Office of Police Conduct, adding that this was "standard protocol for such circumstances".
