Body found near to where two sisters vanished in Scotland

The body of a woman has been recovered from the River Dee near to where two missing sisters disappeared in Aberdeen.

Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, both aged 32, were last spotted on CCTV in the city's Market Street at Victoria Bridge at about 2.12am on Tuesday 7 January.

The women were seen crossing the bridge and turning right on to a footpath next to the River Dee in the direction of Aberdeen Boat Club.

On Friday, it was confirmed a woman's body had been recovered from the water east of the club.

Although the body is yet to be formally identified, Police Scotland said the family of Henrietta had been informed.

The force added searches remain ongoing for Eliza.

Investigating officers previously said there had been "no evidence" of the women leaving the immediate area and there had been nothing to suggest "suspicious circumstances or criminality".

The police revealed that the sisters - who are part of a set of triplets and originally from Hungary - visited the bridge where they were last seen about 12 hours before they disappeared.

They also sent a text message to their landlady on the morning they vanished, indicating they would not be returning to the flat.

In a statement released via Police Scotland earlier this month, the family said: "This has been a very worrying and upsetting time for our family.

"We are really worried about Eliza and Henrietta and all we want is for them to be found."
