Lamduan Armitage  went unidentified by British police for 15 years and became known as the Lady of the  Hills.
The British husband of a Thai woman whose body was found in the Yorkshire Dales more than 20 years ago has been arrested on suspicion of her  murder.
Walkers discovered Lamduan Armitage's half-naked body in a stream near Pen-y-ghent in 2004 and  it went unidentified for 15 years until her family saw a BBC News report and came  forward.
David Armitage, who had  been living in Thailand since  his death, was arrested earlier  on his return to the UK after Thai authorities revoked his  residency visa.
North Yorkshire Police,  who are investigating the death, said: "A 61-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of the murder of Lamduan Armitage in 2004. He remains in police custody for  questioning."

A group of  hikers were posing for a  photo when they  spotted Lamduan's body in the  stream.
Armitage was  arrested last Thursday at his  home in Kanchanaburi before being transferred to  an immigration detention centre in Bangkok.
He did not  apply for immigration, meaning he no longer had the right to  remain in  Thailand.
He returned to the UK on Saturday morning and was arrested by police shortly after  arriving at Heathrow Airport,  according to the  BBC.
The BBC has not spoken  to Mr  Armitage, but he has previously said he was not involved in his  wife's death, according to  the Sun.

Lamduan Armitage moved to the UK in 1991 with David Armitage after  marrying him in  Thailand.
An autopsy confirmed she had  been dead between one and three weeks before her body was found, but could not determine how she  died.
There were no  signs of violence and hypothermia was ruled out, but detectives  were unable to answer two  key questions: who she was or how she  died.
A review of the cold case  began in 2016 and scientific advances  have allowed police to piece together a more detailed picture of who she was and concluded she had been  murdered. Three years  later, a major breakthrough  came when a Thai family  became aware of the case and believed the woman could be their daughter who  had disappeared in  2004.
This prompted North Yorkshire Police to carry out DNA  tests to confirm her  identity.
The investigation revealed that she moved to the UK in 1991 with Mr Armitage after they married in Thailand and  that they  were living in  the north of England before her  death.
