"She has truly touched the whole world.

"The cruelty of her being taken away is unbearable. Our hearts are broken. "

Malaysia's deputy police chief Mazlan Mansor said Nora, who was of Irish-French descent, was found beside a stream in a "quite hilly" area of plantation, and was "not in any clothing".
