Stuart Hazell pleads not guilty to Tia murder

Stuart Hazell - the man accused of killing 12-year-old Tia Sharp in the UK - has pleaded not guilty to her murder.

Tia's body was found in the loft of her grandmother's house a week after she was reported missing.

Her disappearance sparked wide scale searches by police and members of the public in south London last August.
