The body of the English teacher Alice Hodgkinson, who was reported missing by her employer, the Shane English School, in Tokyo when she failed to turn up for work on 1 July, has now been found.
The 28-year-old, originally from Nottingham, had been working at the English conversation school since arriving in Japan in March. According to her father, she was in regular touch via emails and Skype until 30 June. He added that Alice had left a note addressed to him and his son in which she sounded “distressed’.
