The human jaw bone with a single tooth found on a beach on the Caribbean island of Aruba is not that of missing US teenager Natalee Holloway, the Aruban public prosecution department said on Tuesday.

Research by the Dutch forensic institute using dental records showed the bone could not have come from the girl.
The institute did not carry out a dna test because the dental evidence is conclusive, the Telegraaf reported.
Holloway disappeared on May 30 2005.
The island’s advocate general Taco Stein said research into where the bone had come from would continue.
