Specialist police have searched a second tract of bushland for the remains of missing Sydney woman Samah Baker and seized several "items of interest" which will undergo forensic examination.
Ms Baker, 30, was last seen by a friend after being dropped at her Parramatta home on Early Street in the early hours of January 4.
Relatives reported her missing later that day after they couldn't get in touch.
Local detectives, with help from the homicide squad, launched an investigation and James Hachem, 32, was arrested on March 9 at a shopping centre in Hurstville and charged with murder.
Officers searched bushland at Yarra, southwest of Goulburn, in March.
Police from the riot squad, dog unit, Operations Support Group and marine command launched a second search at South Nowra on Tuesday.
Images released by NSW Police show officers combing through bushland with tools and wading through rivers trying to locate Ms Baker's body.
AAP understands Hachem is not providing any information that would help with the search.
NSW Police allege Ms Baker was murdered between 2.30am and 8am on January 4.
Hachem is believed to be an acquaintance of Ms Baker but the nature of their relationship remains unclear.
The latest search, which took place about 90 kilometres east of the first bush search, uncovered "several items of interest", a police spokesperson said on Wednesday.
The items will be subject to forensic testing.
