Police have recovered a body at an Aberdeen boat club in the search for missing twin sisters.
Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, both 32, who are part of a set of triplets, vanished from Aberdeen on Tuesday, January 7. They were last seen on Market Street at Victoria Bridge over the River Dee at around 2.12am.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We were made aware of the body of a person seen in the River Dee near Queen Elizabeth Bridge in Aberdeen around 7.55am on Friday, 31 January, 2025.
“The body has been recovered from the water and enquiries are ongoing.”
The last recorded movements of the sisters, originally from Hungary, saw them cross the bridge and turn right on to a footpath next the river heading towards Aberdeen Boat Club. Detectives later confirmed that the siblings, who were wearing rucksacks, were seen at the same bridge at around 2.50pm the previous day, Monday January 6.

A major hunt was launched in the north east, with extensive searches being carried out of the river, with a police helicopter and dog branch also used. Officers have said there is nothing to suggest any criminality or suspicious circumstances.
Their landlady raised the alarm due to concern about Eliza and Henrietta. Police confirmed she received a strange text message from Henrietta at 2.12am on January 7. At that point she was told that they would not be returning and then the phone was switched off. All of their possessions were found in the home.
Eliza and Henrietta’s brother Joszef, revealed that the family were not aware of their decision to move out of their flat, despite he and his mother having spoken to them in the days and weeks prior to the disappearance. He added everything had seemed normal when they talked.
The two sisters arrived to the UK from Hungary six years ago and had been working in Aberdeen since then. Police have looked into their background but everything about it including their social life appeared to be perfectly normal.
