The body of a woman has been retrieved from a river in Aberdeen, Scotland, where two missing sisters were last seen.
Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, were last seen more than three weeks ago, at 2am on the 7 January by the River Dee in Aberdeen. The two women had crossed the street and turned onto a footpath where they were headed over to the Aberdeen Boat Club.
The unidentified woman’s body was seen around 7:55 am this morning in the river, east of the boat club, and has since been retrieved by authorities.
Henrietta Huzti’s family, who reported her missing on the 7 January, has been informed.
Scottish Police, the Marine Unit and other specialists will continue further investigations by the between the Queen Elizabeth Bridge and Victoria bridge today.
Superintendent David Howieson said today: “Our priority remains finding both of the sisters and search has focused on the River Dee and will do so in the coming days. Nothing from our extensive enquiries so far suggest either sister left the immediate area after they were last seen on Tuesday, 7 January.
“The river in this area is tidal and conditions are challenging but we will continue to search and make every effort to locate both of the sisters.”
Superintendent Howieson added: “Our thoughts are with the Huszti family today. We are keeping them fully updated following this recovery and the further search activity which is ongoing.
Anyone with information should contact Police Scotland on 101, citing incident number 0735 of Tuesday, 7 January, 2025.
