Questions remain over the death of Rotorua mother Melissa Jones

Jones' body was found on the Lake Rotorua shorefront on October 18, last year.

Detective Sergeant Caroline Wharton says it was clear she'd been in the water for some time.

Melissa Jones was last seen on September 8 last year - and there's a six week period where there's no information on her whereabouts.

Her mother wants people to come forward if they have any information.
