Police searching for the missing Khandallah woman have recently recovered a body at a beach in the Wairarapa.

While formal identification is yet to take place, the body is believed to be that of Sonam Shelar, who was reported missing on Saturday.

Police have notified Sonam's next of kin and the matter has been referred to the Coroner.

The investigation is still ongoing and Police are working closely with the family of the deceased to ascertain further facts.

Police are committed to supporting the family of the deceased and providing answers for them.
