Thank you Zelda for an alert and thank you Ellmau for the link to quite well written and really informative article.
I hope you do not mind I am re posting the reconstruction picture for future reference and just in case links time out.

I am quite glad almost all questions I have emailed to police while suggesting previous matches have been answered in press release. John Doe height has not been shortened as reported by Reading article reporter, but still stands at 5ft 9ins to 5ft 11ins (175.26 cm to 180.34 cm). Aged 30-40 years old. There were no hair recovered.
Clothing:
A loose knitted blue and white striped jumper with a Turkish design label was recovered from the body. The jumper, which is distributed in Europe, was shown on the programme and the publics help was requested to try and obtain any other information about this jumper or people who may have worn a similar one.
Few questions
- I am wondering about following statement:
Police believe the remains may have been placed in the field in Hawthorn Lane between 2008 and 2013 but think that the man was probably killed elsewhere.
Does it mean they have shortened post mortem period from previous 2-15 years to now 2-7 years? or does it imply that he was buried on that spot for that period only, but could be dead for much longer, meaning being moved from elsewhere and reburied there?
-
DNA had been retrieved from the remains but this did not relate to anyone currently on the National Missing persons Database or Police PNC records in the UK
Anyone know what PNC records stands for? Criminal, missing or other database?
-
An international request was made and a Lithuanian national, Aivaras Danilevicius, has been linked to the enquiry.
Can anyone let me know more about partial DNA? Is it yes or no or perhaps match? Or strong possibility but paternal DNA missing?
My apologies for many questions, just trying to learn as much as I can and hope fellow members can share their extensive knowledge.
Few comments
If it's Aivaras, he came to the UK in 2004; the police can't trace any movements after that; so did he get killed pretty soon after he got here? I would have thought they could have found working details if he was paying National Insurance, so illegal or criminal work of some kind? 2004 was when Lithuania joined the EU.
(People from all new 2004 EU joining countries had to adhere to quite strict rules. It was not as "free" as thought. Everyone coming into UK from those new countries had to register within a month to WRS and report for a year. Any changes of location or job had to be re-registered. Anyone without job over 30 days had to leave. Registering rule has been abolished just few years back. The point is police could check WRS offices and might find quite a few details.)
Most of his clothing was removed - only a top was found with the body. Before or after death, we don't know, or why - to remove identifying information? The killer's blood?
(really good thought, could be also uniform or specific work trousers?)
He was killed violently, by blunt force trauma, struck on the head at least twice.
(this is not correct, as mentioned by police he could have been struck twice but also only once to sustain those injuries... think of industrial accident...)
