Vietnam-born Elizabeth, 19, vanished a mile from home in Ealing, West London in April 1999.

Sources said Bellfield, 54, has confessed to bundling her into a van.

His statement is understood to include where she is buried — as well as admitting five other attempted murders.

He has also confessed to ‘blitz’ attacks on Sarah Spurrell, then 23, in Hastings in 2004, Jessie Wilson, then 17, in south-west London and Sonia Salvatierra, 26, in Twickenham.

Bellfield — serving two life terms at Frankland, Co Durham — handed the confession to solicitor Theresa Clark last month.

She said: “I have passed it to the police. He is likely to be interviewed under caution.”

Elizabeth was last seen walking past Ealing police station at 6pm on April 16, 1999 – about a mile from her home – after handing in an assignment.

Her family, who still live in London, were “immediately worried” when she did not return home.

In 2012, Scotland Yard launched a fresh appeal for information and offered a £15,000 reward for information.

Police are understood to have told Elizabeth’s family, whose spokesman declined to comment.
