Police who travelled to Thailand to speak with the family of a woman found dead in the Yorkshire Dales have been unable to meet with her husband.
Walkers discovered the half-naked body of Lamduan Armitage, nee Seekanya, in a stream near Pen-y-ghent in 2004.
For 15 years her identity was unknown until family in Thailand came forward and DNA proved it was their daughter.
Officers have spoken with her parents but have not yet managed to meet with her husband David Armitage.
Before they flew out to Thailand on 15 February, North Yorkshire Police said they could not move the case forward without "understanding from Lamduan's family all the aspects about her life and particularly the last few months of her life".
While in the country they have worked alongside the Thai police's Department of Special Investigation (DSI) following a request from the force seeking interviews from witnesses in Udon Thani, Bangkok and Kanchanaburi.
Udomkann Warotamasikkhadit, head of the DSI's foreign affairs and international relations division, said Mr Armitage had initially agreed to come and give evidence.
But he said on the day he refused and added: "He said he didn't feel well and also had some personal issues."
Adam Harland, manager of the major investigation team's cold case review unit, said it was "unfortunate" that they had not been able to "seek the views of the whole family around Lamduan's remains".
Mr Harland said officers would now return to North Yorkshire while the DSI continued its investigations.
A post-mortem examination carried out after Lamduan's body was found on 20 September 2004 failed to establish how she died.

Lack of collaboration from the husband, it seems.
