Missing student Libby Squire was captured on CCTV walking towards a nightclub in Hull on the night she disappeared.

The 21-year-old was filmed near The Welly Club a few minutes after she was turned away by doormen.

The philosophy student appears unsteady on her feet as she walks along the slippery path that had been covered in snow earlier on the evening of 31 January, when she went missing.

"This footage shows that she was dressed all in black and seems to be wearing lighter coloured trainers or boots," Lukasz Rybus told Mail Online. The property agent who owns the footage, added: "I just hope that this footage helps jog someone's memory, if it helps someone remember seeing her, that can only be a positive thing."

Humberside Police had earlier said that Ms Squire took a taxi from the nightclub and arrived near her home at around 11.29pm.

She was then seen near a bench around 10 minutes later, when a motorist stopped and offered to help her.

The student is believed to have been near the bench until shortly after midnight.

A spokesperson for Humberside Police said both the taxi driver and motorist have been spoken to and are not suspects.

Officers had earlier arrested Pawel Relowicz on suspicion of abducting Ms Squire.

Detectives with Humberside Police were granted until 9pm on Sunday to question the 24-year-old as they continued to search his home in Hull.

They later announced that Mr Relowicz had been charged with three counts of burglary, voyerism and outraging public decency relating to separate offences reported between December 2017 and 19 January this year.

Speaking through a Polish interpreter, he pleaded not guilty to all charges at Hull Magistrates Court and was remanded in custody earlier this week.

Mr Relowicz is due to appear at Hull Crown Court on 11 March.
