The 61-year-old is being held on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud at a south London police station.

Miss Waugh, originally from Durham but living in London, was found with a single stab wound inside a car at a garage in Lime Court, New Malden, south-west London, on August 2.

So far, 11 people have been arrested in connection with the inquiry into Miss Waugh’s disappearance.

At least three women have tried to pose as her since she vanished, police said.

Her flat is in an affluent part of central London and her brother Chris previously said she was “very frugal and careful” with money.

Elsewhere, Two men have been arrested on suspicion of murder. Rakesh Bhayani, 40, of Chamberlayne Avenue, Wembley, was held on Thursday and is still being questioned.

He also faces three charges of conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation worth about £280,000, following transactions associated with Ms Waugh’s identity and is due in court next month in connection with those.

Nicholas David Kutner, 47, of no fixed address, was arrested on suspicion of murder and kidnap last week.
